"Self actualising people have a deep feeling of identification, sympathy, and affection for human beings in general. They feel kinship and connection, as if all people were members of a single family. [They often are happy and have great success in many areas of their lives. At the other end of the spectrum of humanity are sociopaths, who do not identify with or have much affection for human beings or even themselves. They are usually unhappy and may eventually wind up in prison for their extremely anti-social behaviors.]" - Abraham Maslow
