Desire then is the invasion of the whole self by the wish, which, as it invades, sets going more and more of the psychical processes; but at the same time, so long as it remains desire, does not succeed in getting possession of the self.

  • -- Samuel Alexander 萨缪尔·亚力山大

因此,欲望是欲望对整个自我的入侵,当它入侵时,会导致越来越多的心理过程;但与此同时,只要欲望还在,就不能成功地占有自我。
