"An intimate adult commitment is based on informed consent:
'I know the architecture of your ego and the unlit corners of your shadows, and I commit to you with my eyes wide open. The territoriality and competitiveness of ego are loosening in me. Before, I wanted to possess you to gratify my ego. Now I dispossess myself of ego to strengthen our relationship.' "
