In order to make a real accomplishment he must sacrifice a number of other potentialities. He must give up his identification with wholeness and voluntarily accept being a real fragment instead of an unreal whole. To be something in reality, he must give up being everything in potentia.

— Edward Edinger, Ego and Archetype
