[Toni Wolffs words to Sallie Nichols who had discovered her husband was involved with another woman.] Then after a pause, Miss Wolff added this: You know, sometimes if a mans wife is big enough to leap over the hurdle of self-pity, she may find that her supposed rival has even helped her marriage! This other woman can sometimes help a man live out certain aspects of himself that his wife either cant fulfill, or else doesnt especially want to. As a result, some of the wifes energies are now freed for her own creative interests and development, often with the result that the marriage not only survives, but emerges even stronger than before! ~C. G. Jung, Emma Jung and Toni Wolff - A Collection of Remembrances, Pages 47-51
