<blockquote>
"The other type (transcenders?) may be said to be much more often aware of the realm of Being (B-realm and B-cognition), to be living at the level of Being; i.e., of ends, of intrinsic values (Maslow, 1964; Maslow, 1967a); to be more obviously metamotivated (Maslow, 1967a); to have unitive consciousness and .. plateau experience" (Asrani) more or less often; and to have or to have had peak experiences (mystic, sacral, ecstatic) with illuminations or insights or cognitions which changed their view of the world and of themselves, perhaps occasionally, perhaps as a usual thing."<ref>Maslow, Abraham. “Theory Z.” ''Journal of Transpersonal Psychology'' 1, no. 2 (1969): 31–47. p. 31-2. p. 32.</ref></blockquote>

<blockquote>
Because it be so difficult for so many to believe, must state explicitly that I have found approximat ely as many
transcenders among businessman, industrialists, managers, educators, political people as I have among the professionally "religious," the poets, intellectuals, musicians and others who are supposed to be transcenders and are officially labeled so. I must say that each of these "professions" has different folkways, different jar gon, different personae and different uniforms. Any minister will talk transcendence even if he hasn't got the slightest inkli ng of what it feels like. And most industrialists will carefully conceal their idealism, their
metaotivations and their transcendent experiences under a mask of "toughness," "realism," "selfishness," and all sorts of other words which would have to be marked off by quotes to indicate that they are only superficial and defensive. Their more real metamotivations are often not repressed but only suppressed, and I have sometimes found it quite easy to break through the protective.<ref>Maslow, Abraham. “Theory Z.” ''Journal of Transpersonal Psychology'' 1, no. 2 (1969): 31–47. p. 31-2. p. 4.</ref></blockquote>
