Quotes
"For example, let’s consider a person who inhabits a society in which access to truth is denied; such an individual will develop a whole set of adverse emotional, and probably even physical, reactions to that way of life.Or let s consider a youth who lives in an urban neighborhood totally lacking in beauty m which everything is brushed with ugliness. That condition will have significant emotional and probably even physical effects...."Just as we need to ingest a certain amount of magnesium or zinc in our diet for healthy functioning, I am suggesting that we all need to ingest or experience unadulterated truth, justice, or beauty for our inner well being. The lack of these minerals or vitamins will inescapably cause certain kinds of illnesses, and I believe that the lack of the B-values will do likewise."[1]
"Now, do you see the enormous social implications of my viewpoint? If a baby is living in poverty with an inadequate diet, then any social workertoday will immediately say, “Yes, that baby isn’t getting enough B-vitamin complex in its diet at home. We have to supply it, or the baby’s going to become ill.” Well, in the same way, social workers, counselors, educators,and psychotherapists of the future will have to say, “That baby is growing up in a place without the B-value of beauty. We’ll have to expose it to beauty to prevent a metapathology.”[2]
