A Thoroughly Socialized Person Is One Who Desires Only The Rewards That Others Around Him Have Agreed He Should Long For - Rewards Often Grafted Onto Genetically Programmed Desires.a Person Who Cannot Override Genetic Instructions When Necessary Is Always Vulnerable..the Solution Is To Gradually Become Free Of Societal Rewards And Learn How To Substitute For Them Rewards That Are Under One's Own Powers.

A Mountain Climber, For Example, May Be Close To Freezing, Utterly Exhausted, And In Danger Of Falling Into A Bottomless Crevasse, Yet He Wouldn't Want To Be Anywhere Else.
