More quotes by Carl Jung
A man who has not passed through the inferno of his passions has never overcome them. As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light in the darkness of mere being. Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.
Carl Jung
The self is not only the centre but also the whole circumference which embraces both conscious and unconscious it is the centre of this totality, just as the ego is the centre of consciousness.
Carl Jung
Knowledge rests not upon truth alone, but upon error also.
Carl Jung
One is always in the dark about one's own personality. One needs others to get to know oneself.
Carl Jung
Life is something that has to be lived and not talked about.
Carl Jung
The capacity for inner dialogue is a touchstone for outer objectivity.
Carl Jung
Every human life contains a potential, if that potential is not fulfilled, then that life was wasted.
Carl Jung
My work as a psychoanalyst is to help patients recover their lost wholeness and to strengthen the psyche so it can resist future dismemberment.
Carl Jung
But what if I should discover that the least amongst them all, the poorest of all beggars, the most impudent of all offenders, yea the very fiend himself— that these are within me, and that I myself stand in need of the alms of my own kindness, that I myself am the enemy who must be loved— what then?
Carl Jung
People cannot stand too much Reality.
Carl Jung
I cannot prove to you that God exists, but my work has proved empirically that the pattern of God exists in every man and that this pattern in the individual has at its disposal the greatest transforming energies of which life is capable. Find this pattern in your own individual self and life is transformed.
Carl Jung
We are living in what the Greeks called the kairos - the right moment - for a 'metamorphosis of the gods', of the fundamental principles and symbols. This peculiarity of our time, which is certainly not of our conscious choosing, is the expression of the unconscious man within us who is changing.
Carl Jung
My interests drew me in different directions. On the one hand I was powerfully attracted by science, with its truths based on facts on the other hand I was fascinated by everything to do with comparative religion. [...] In science I missed the factor of meaning and in religion, that of empiricism.
Carl Jung
You are what you do, not what you say you'll do.
Carl Jung
If a man knows more than others, he becomes lonely.
Carl Jung
What happens after death is so unspeakably glorious that our imagination and our feelings do not suffice to form even an approximate conception of it. The dissolution of our time-bound form in eternity brings no loss of meaning.
Carl Jung
How can I be substantial if I do not cast a shadow? I must have a dark side also If I am to be whole
Carl Jung
Recognition of the reality of evil necessarily relativizes the good, and the evil likewise, converting both into halves of a paradoxical whole.
Carl Jung
People learn from who we are, rather than what we say, and to believe otherwise is a disease of the mind.
Carl Jung
Music is the application of sounds to the canvas of silence.
Carl Jung
