  • Rosy's fabric

    "Ideas give people courage". This phrase, attributed to French politician Georges Clemenceau (1841-1929), offers the cue to Aldous Huxley for a broad reflection on today's reality which, in my opinion, is not so different from that of 1931 (the year in which he published his "Beliefs and Action" essay).
