"Because a child is physically small, and its conscious thoughts both scarce and simple, we do not realize the far-reaching complications of the infantile mind that are based on its original identity within our true prehistoric psyche. That original mind is just as much present, and still functioning in the child, as the evolutionary stages of mankind are in its embryonic body." [pg. 96]
