"There will be, in the next generation or so, a
pharmacological method of making people love their servitude, and
producing dictatorship without tears, so to speak, producing a kind of
painless concentration camp for entire societies, so that people will in
fact have their liberties taken away from them, but will rather enjoy
it, because they will be distracted from any desire to rebel by
propaganda or brainwashing, or brainwashing enhanced by pharmacological
methods. And this seems to be the final revolution." -- Aldous Huxley,
Tavistock Group, California Medical School, 1961
