"In their dispute, both nature and culture are correct. You do belong to both. But your personal development requires that you not choose a side, that you simultaneously hold the opposing claims and withstand the tension between them. This conscious holding of opposites will, itself, constitute a significant stimulus to your maturation within the cocoon. It might even be one of the primary factors."
