Aldous Huxley Quotes:
Ocupation: Writer
Life: July 26, 1894 - November 22, 1963
Birthday: July 26
Death: November 22
Experience is not a matter of having actually swum the Hellespont, or danced with the dervishes, or slept in a doss-house. It is a matter of sensibility and intuition, of seeing, and hearing the significant thing, of paying attention at the right moments, of understanding and coordinating. Experience is not what happens to a man; it is what a man does with what happens to him.
