QUOTE A DAY - March 15th, 2011

Greetings fellow quote lovers:

to a Palestinian poet... from Huxley to Taleb.

Thanks for opening and reading. Let's make this week the
best one in our lives.

Best,

JA

rather enjoy it, because they will be distracted from
any desire to rebel by propaganda or brainwashing, or
brainwashing enhanced by pharmacological methods. And
this seems to be the final revolution.
--Aldous Huxley, California Medical School, 1961
