To separate oneself or one's group-to say, “Oh, no, we are different”—is to set oneself against wholeness. To separate ourselves from the whole is to cut our options and erect walls of our own prison. When we create duality in our thoughts and lives, we have created opposition ... the separations and limitations are in our own minds. Joseph Campbell Osbon (1991, p. 7)
