FROM:  Christmas In Purgatory: A Photographic Essay On Mental Retardation
ORIGINAL CAPTION:  "A danger of early institutional training programs was their separateness from the reality of the outside world. This was something more than the poor personal habits - unhygenic, amoral, uncouth - which breed within walls. Rather it was the unconscious furthering of irresponsibility and provincialism. For conformity and withdrawal are the bulwarks of mass management; and both are alien to the rough-and-tumble world. . ."
Richard H. Hungerford
