the existence of the light, but of blind people who do not know that their eyes could see. It is high time we

• When there is full parity of the opposites, attested by the ego's absolute participation in both, this necessarily
leads to a suspension of the will, for the will can no longer operate when every motive has an equally strong
counter motive. Since life cannot tolerate a standstill, a damming up of vital energy results, and this would lead
to an insupportable condition did not the tension of opposites produce a new, uniting function that transcends
them. This function arises quite naturally from the regression of libido caused by the blockage. [Ibid. par. 824.]
• Without the aristocratic ideal there is no stability. You in England owe it to the "gentlemen" that you possess
