Where is eternity?
The mature person has become free from the outside mother and father figures, and has build them up inside. … motherly conscience on his own capacity for love, and a fatherly conscience on his reason and judgment.
In the stage of full maturity he has freed himself from the person of mother and of father as protecting and commanding powers; he has established the motherly and fatherly principles in himself. He has become his own father and mother; he is father and mother.
--Erich Fromm
