Maladaptation Quotes By Augustine Of Hippo

A person who is a good and true Christian should realize that truth belongs to his Lord, wherever it is found, gathering and acknowledging it even in pagan literature, but rejecting superstitious vanities and deploring and avoiding those who 'though they knew God did not glorify him as God or give thanks but became enfeebled in their own thoughts and plunged their senseless minds into darkness. Claiming to be wise they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for the image of corruptible mortals and animals and reptiles' [Rom. 1:21-3] — Augustine Of Hippo

Maladaptation Quotes By Terence McKenna

Schizophrenia is just a catch-all term for forms of mental behaviour that we don't understand.

Marginal to his society, incapable of holding a regular job, these people live on the fringes content to drift in their own self-created value system. I said, that's it! That's it! Now I understand! — Terence McKenna

As a friend of mine put it, "Feeling that something is wrong with me is the invisible and toxic gas I am always breathing."

Trapped in this trance, we are unable to perceive the truth of who we really are. — Tara Brach
