At the same time, however, it aims not only at integration 'within' the person but at integration 'between' persons. The word 'integer' in latin means 'whole'- so that integration means making whole, the endeavour to achieve wholeness and completeness. The process of integrating love relies on the primary elements of the human spirit- freedom and truth.

They penetrate the remotest recesses of human action and experience, filling them with a content of which we never meet the slightest trace in the lives of animals.
