Children Require Long, Uniterrupted Periods Of Play

I Am Convinced That There Is No Sort Of Boundary Between The Living And The Mental Or Between The Biological And The Psychological. From The Moment An Organism Takes Account Of A Previous Experience And Adapts To A New Situation, That Very Much Resembles Psychology.

Logical Positivists Have Never Taken Psychology Into Account In Their Epistemology, But They Affirm That Logical Beings And Mathematical Beings Are Nothing But Linguistic Structures.

For The Fundamental Fact Of Human Psychology Is That Society, Instead Of Remaining Almost Entirely Inside The Individual Organism As In The Case Of Animals Prompted By Their Instincts, Becomes Crystallized Almost Entirely Outside The Individuals. In Other Words, Social Rules, As Durkheim Has So Powerfully Shown, Whether They Be Linguistic, Moral, Religious, Or Legal, Etc., Cannot Be Constituted, Transmitted Or Preserved By Means Of An Internal Biological Heredity, But Only Through The External Pressure Exercised By Individuals Upon Each Other.

Moral Autonomy Appears When The Mind Regards As Necessary An Ideal That Is Independent Of All External Pressures.

Accommodation Of Mental Structures To Reality Implies The Existence Of Assimilatory Schemata Apart From Which Any Structure Would Be Impossible.
