Aldous Huxley Quote [Brilliant!]

"If we could sniff or swallow something that would, for five or six hours each day, abolish our solitude as individuals, atone us with our fellows in a glowing exaltation of affection and make life in all its aspects seem not only worth living, but divinely beautiful and significant, and if this heavenly, world-transfiguring drug were of such a kind that we could wake up next morning with a clear head and an undamaged constitution - then, it seems to me, all our problems (and not merely the one small problem of discovering a novel pleasure) would be wholly solved and earth would become paradise."

ALDOUS HUXLEY
1894 - 1963

SAMIAM "Don't Break Me'' Live in Philly 9-25-93 [With Lyrics]




"Sitting in the corner 

 Don't know what to think 

 I can't speak 

 I sink a little deeper with every drink 

 I try to sleep
I shut my eyes 


 Like a leaky faucet fear floods the room 

 The one that drips away 

 Patiently by day 

 It was either lost or it was stolen but
It's been missing for too long 


 I woke up one morning 

 I couldn't see the sunrise 

 I can't recall

The exact moment now 


but
It began some time ago 


 And it makes me wonder 

after all I've done 

 What have I got to show? 

What have I got to show
What have I got to show" 


 I'm aggravated
I'm what you created 


 Now don't break me"

Wise Words from Dr Carl Jung--

The decisive question for man is: Is he related to something infinite or not? That is the telling question of his life. Only if we know that the thing which truly matters is the infinite can we avoid fixing our interest upon futilities, and upon all kinds of goals which are not of real importance. Thus we demand that the world grant us recognition for qualities which we regard as personal possessions: our talent or our beauty. The more a man lays stress on false possessions, and the less sensitivity he has for what is essential, the less satisfying is his life. He feels limited because he has limited aims, and the result is envy and jealousy. If we understand and feel that here in this life we already have a link with the infinite, desires and attitudes change. In the final analysis, we count for something only because of the essential we embody . . .
