"That humanity at large will ever be able to dispense with artificial paradises seems very unlikely.
Most men and women lead lives at the worst so painful, at the least so monotonously poor and limited
that the urge to escape, the longing to transcend themselves, if only for a few moments, is and always has
been one of the principal appetites of the soul. Art and religion, carnivals and saturnalia, dancing and listening to oratory - all these have served in H.G. Wells' phrase as 'doors in the wall.'"
Aldous Huxley: "THE DOORS OF PERCEPTION"
"Through that door, I could feel the change: I could smell it and taste it. What the hell, I stepped in, and the enormity of this situation we call life came bearing down upon me. It flooded over me, then, just as quickly, it vanished into a blaze of light. It fealt terribly good, and terribly new. From behind the door came a voice that said; 'Welcome traveler, you just paid the toll: the rest of your trip is free', and I was handed the key.
Now all I had to do was find the other doors!"
