I would never demean the art or artists shown.(hmmm, I wonder if they were paid/paid off by Janssen.) Art, music, poetry & writing are good for the mind, body and soul and certainly are a part of healing of any kind. But this soft and touchy/feely ad from Janssen makes me want to vomit. I find the "important safety information" that follows "Aspirations" particularly paradoxical and revolting. ASSpirations indeed.
