Society highly values its normal man. It educates children to lose themselves and to become absurd, and thus to be normal.
R. D. LaingWhat we call "normal" is a product of repression, denial, splitting, projection, introjection, and other forms of destructive actions on experience...It is radically estranged from the structure of being.
R. D. LaingThe range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice there is little we can do to change until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds.
