Huxley Footnote

Aldous Huxley is a famous author who wrote The Doors of Perception in which he explains his use of mescalin. Mescaline is a hallucinogen obtained from a small, spineless cactus Peyote. In earlier times it was used for traditional religious reasons. (http://www.drugs.com/mescaline.html) Huxley instead used it for a more different reason; he said that everyone should take “chemical vacations”. I agree with Huxley that everyone at a point might need a break from reality and there busy lives. Which to Huxley’s break was the excessive use of mescalin, not everyone may agree with the way he did it, but everyone has there own way of dealing with life.
