THE EXPEDIENTS OF A PRIMITIVE BEING

I once read that hysterical behaviour is a reaching out for liberation by means of wild gestures. Unaware of the movements needed to secure their release, animals become hysterical and lose all control. And in their frenzy they often discover the right gesture to gain their freedom.

This reminds me of the liberating advantages of a primitive existence which is purely emotional. However hysterical, the primitive person draws upon so many contradictory feelings that the one capable of bringing a sense of freedom finally comes to the surface, even if that person does not know it.
