But one thing you have to understand clearly is that it is the man who longs for domination, and it is the woman who dominates. This is what I call coexistence: live and let live. More than that is all imagination. If you really had known what love is...the basic thing is not to create a relationship.

Don't destroy the individuality of the other, enhance it if you can; otherwise, at least leave it as it is, uninterfered with.
