Another Quote on Animals

"Suppressed and wounded instincts are the dangers threatening civilized man; uninhibited drives are the dangers threatening primitive man. In both cases the 'animal' is alienated from it's true nature; and for both, acceptance of the animal soul is the condition for wholeness and a fully lived life. Primitive man must tame the animal in himself and make it his helpful companion; civilized man must heal the animal in himself and make it his friend." - Aniela Jaffe

I think Jaffe considered this to mean the primitive and the civilized part of an individual as well as what we might label as a civilized or primitive culture. Those words bother me, but I don't want it to distract from the message which I like alot.
