“Monogamy is a way of getting the versions of ourselves down to the minimum.”
Adam Phillips, Monogamy
“SELF-BETRAYAL is a sentimental melodrama; a deification of our own better judgment, an adoration of shame. I am always true to myself, that is the problem. Who else could I be true to?

When I say that I have let myself down, I am boasting. I am the only person I cannot avoid being faithful to. My sexual relationship with myself, in other words, is a study in monogamy.”
Adam Phillips, Monogamy
“Two's company, three's a couple.”
Adam Phillips, Monogamy
