A Quest for a Certain book~
I Wanted to find Huxley. I wanted to find 'Brave New World.'
Huxley said, "There's only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self."
See, I found out that this book isn't about changing the world, it is about changing yourself FOR the world. Someone who wished to do so realized at one point or another, that changing yourself is more essential. I told my professors that sounds no different than what Gandi said when he encouraged people to, "Be the change they wish to see in the world."
I realized Huxley and Gandi mighta had something in common in a way. So I looked and seen the titles of the other books Huxley has wrote. I only noticed one of them I can remember like yesterday. It was the work before 'Brave New World.' Brave New World was what he became renown for. But the book that was previous to this was called, The Genuineness and the Goddess.' What a trip.
