is the key to understanding the psyche.
-Edward Edinger
The opposite sidewalk calls to us...
It is the most negative thing
to ignore the call of the sidewalk opposite.
-Robert Juarroz
The dualistic view of things
is a view of things.
-Benjamin Sells
The perspective that makes dualism possible
is already present by the time it posits dualism.
-Benjamin Sells
Dualism is truncated metaphysics.
-C. S. Lewis
Dualism...Without it there can hardly be good literature.
With it, there most certainly can be no good life.
-Aldous Huxley
Everything in the field of time and space is dual.
-Joseph Campbell
Duality is a main principle of creation
through which we come to appreciate equality and reciprocity
and ultimately, Oneness.
-Rowena Pattee Kryder
The complementary polarity becomes a duality
when one loses consciousness of the One behind and within it.
-Rowena Pattee Kryder
Duality is the way that separation from source
comes to know its opposite or its complement,
and by attraction, comes to know itself through another.
-Rowena Pattee Kryer
I strongly reject any conceptual scheme that places our options in a line,
and holds that the only alternative to a pair of opposite positions
lies somewhere between them.
More fruitful perspectives often require that we step off the line
to a site outside the dichotomy.
-Stephen Jay Gould
A duality in which one valence is valued over the other
causes dichotomies within our perception of ourselves and others...
Distinctions are indispensable,
the recognition of differences are necessary.
It is only when we identify exclusively
with one side of the duality
and dissociate or repress the other
that we begin to have a false view of reality.
-Marion Woodman
Whenever you fall into an identification
with one of a pair of warring groups or factions
of any kind, then you have momentarily -
so far as you are identified, anyway -
lost the possibility of being a carrier of the opposites.
Instead you identify with one and project the other.
-Edward Edinger
We are seeking the balance of polarity,
not the antagonism of duality.
-B. K. S. Iyengar
The solution must rise
from the dynamics of the opposing tendencies
that are facing each other.
-Robert A. Johnson
Each time the ego identifies
with one side of a pair of opposites
the unconscious will confront one with its contrary.
Gradually, the individual becomes able
to experience opposite viewpoints simultaneously.
-Edward Edinger
Take your practiced powers
and stretch them out
until they span the chasm
between the two contradictions.
-Rainer Maria Rilke
You cannot "tame the opposites,"
but you can allow them to equilibrate one another.
-Richard and Iona Miller
If we push a negative hard enough and deep enough,
it breaks through into its counter side.
-Saul Alinsky
When situations proceed beyond their extremes,
they alternate to their opposites.
-Alfred Huang
Dualities are never resolved;
dualities are transcended.

We will stand feeding and seeding.

So do we.

Opposites can repel or they can broaden;
you have the power to choose which.
