"Naturally, for a person who finds his identity in something other than his full organism is less than half a man. He is cut off from complete participation in nature. Instead of being a body, he 'has' a body. Instead of living and loving he 'has' instincts for survival and copulation."

Therein, they exemplified the peculiar andperhaps fatal fallacy of civilization: the confusion of symbol with reality."
