Aldous Huxley Quotes
Every Individual Is At Once The Beneficiary And The Victim Of The Linguistic Tradition Into Which
he Has Been Born - The Beneficiary Inasmuch As Language Gives Access To The Accumulated Records Of
other People's Experience, The Victim In So Far As It Confirms Him In The Belief That Reduced Awareness Is
the Only Awareness And As It Bedevils His Sense Of Reality, So That He Is All Too Apt To Take His Concepts For
data, His Words For Actual Things. That Which, In The Language Of Religion, Is Called "this World" Is The
universe Of Reduced Awareness, Expressed, And, As It Were, Petrified By Language.
