“[B]alance does not refer to equality of two [functions]

or of two attitudes . . .[I]t means superior

skill in one, supplemented by a helpful but

not competitive skill in the other . . .

Perception without judgment is spineless;

judgment with no perception is blind.

Introversion lacking any extraversion is impractical;

 extraversion with no introversion is superficial.”

Isabel Myers (1980), Gifts differing: Understanding personality type,

Mountain View, CA: CCP, Inc., P. 174
