| understand me. In contrast, the distorted instinct of procreation contains the pleasure drive, the yearning for pleasure | 86 THE INSTINCTS OF SELF-PRESERVATION AND PROCREATION IN CONFLICT |
| pleasure is not forthcoming, the distortion of the procreation instinct becomes conducive to the pseudo-solution of submissiveness | 86 THE INSTINCTS OF SELF-PRESERVATION AND PROCREATION IN CONFLICT |
| the instinct of self-preservation. Therefore the instinct of procreation must, to some extent at least, be squelched | 86 THE INSTINCTS OF SELF-PRESERVATION AND PROCREATION IN CONFLICT |
| starve and stagnate. If the distorted instinct of procreation and its pseudo-solution, the quest for love, predominate | 86 THE INSTINCTS OF SELF-PRESERVATION AND PROCREATION IN CONFLICT |
| is to try and make either self-preservation or procreation serve both ends. This, of course, cannot work | 86 THE INSTINCTS OF SELF-PRESERVATION AND PROCREATION IN CONFLICT |
