Changes

<blockquote>The analytical physician and the weakened ego of the [[patient]], basing themselves upon the [[real ]] [[external ]] [[world]], are to combine against the enemies, the instinc­tual [[demands ]] of the id, and the [[moral ]] demands of the super­ego. We [[form ]] a pact with each [[other]]. The patient's sick ego promises us the most [[complete ]] candor, promises, that is, to put at our disposal all of the [[material ]] which his [[self]]-[[perception ]] provides; we, on the other hand, assure him of the strictest discretion and put at his service our [[experience ]] in [[interpreting ]] material that has been influenced by the [[unconscious]]. Our [[knowledge ]] shall compensate for his [[ignorance ]] and shall give his ego once more [[mastery ]] over the lost provinces of his [[mental ]] [[life]]. This pact constitutes the [[analytic ]] [[situation]].<ref>{{OoPA}} Ch. 6</ref></blockquote>
