Now I'm remembering.  About those cultural glasses.  So coooool!

Discussing schizophrenia:

"Does anybody know the point of all this?

Woman:  We're all schizophrenic.

Of course we're all schizophrenic.  In fact, R. D. Laing is far too 
conservative when he talks about schizophrenia being a natural 
response.  Evolutionarily the next step, which we're all engaged in, 
is multiple personality.  You're all multiple personalities.  There 
are only two difference between you and an officially diagnosed 
multiple personality:  (1) the fact that you don't have to have 
amnesia for how you are behaving in one context; you can remember it 
in another context,  (2) you can choose how to respond 
contextually.  Whenever you _don't_ have a choice about how you 
respond in context, you are a robot.  So you have two choices.  You 
can be a multiple personality or a robot.  Choose well.

The point that we're trying to make is that the difference between 
somebody who doesn't know their hallucination is a hallucination and 
yourselves is only that you have developed some strategy by which you 
know what is shared reality and what is not.  And if you are going to 
have hallucinations, you probably have them about ideas instead of 
about things."
      (Bandler and Grinder, frogs into PRINCES', 1979, P.52)
