Aldous Huxley : (4)

" A democracy which makes or even effectively prepares for modern, scientific war must necessarily cease to be democratic. No country can be really well prepared for modern war unless it is governed by a tyrant, at the head of a highly trained and perfectly obedient bureaucracy. " - Aldous Huxley

" What with making their way and enjoying what they have won, heroes have no time to think. But the sons of heroes – ah, they have all the necessary leisure. " - Aldous Huxley

" Consistency is contrary to nature, contrary to life. The only completely consistent people are dead. " - Aldous Huxley

" The most distressing thing that can happen to a prophet is to be proved wrong. The next most distressing thing is to be proved right. " - Aldous Huxley
