Quotes About Satisfaction

La felicidad real siempre aparece escuálida en comparación con las compensaciones que ofrece la desdicha.
~ Aldous Huxley
categorical imperative that it is with you. You think first of getting the biggest possible output in the shortest possible time. We think first of human beings and their satisfactions.

If it's a choice between mechanical efficiency and human satisfaction, we choose satisfaction.
~ Aldous Huxley

The world's stable now. People are happy; they get what they want, and they never want what they can't get.
~ Aldous Huxley
La actual felicidad siempre parece muy menguada en comparación con las compensaciones que brinda la miseria. Y, además, la estabilidad no es ni con mucho tan espectacular como la inestabilidad.

La felicidad nunca es grandiosa.

~ Aldous Huxley

~ Aldous Huxley
Todo pájaro que aprenda a organizarse una buena vida sin necesidad de usar sus alas pronto renunciará al privilegio del vuelo y permanecerá por siempre en tierra.

E é evidente que a estabilidade, como espetáculo, não chega aos calcanhares da instabilidade. E o facto de se estar satisfeito não tem nada com o encanto mágico de uma boa luta contra a desgraça, nada do pitoresco de um combate contra a tentação, ou de uma derrota fatal sob os golpes da paixão ou da dúvida.

The whole of Ireland was put on to the four-hour day. What was the result? Unrest and a large increase in the consumption of soma; that was all. Those three and a half hours of extra leisure were so far from being a source of happiness, that people felt constrained to take a holiday from them.
~ Aldous Huxley
