Love is either the mode of becoming which appropriates the other to itself by consuming it, introjecting it into the self until it the self disappears. Or love is the movement of becoming that allows the one and the other to grow. For such love to exist, each one must keep its body autonomous. One must not be the source of the other, nor the other of one. Two lives must embrace and fecundate each other with no preconceived goal or end for either.
-Luce Irigary, French Feminist Theorist
