I am no longer alone with myself, and I can only artificially recall the scary and beautiful feeling of solitude. This is the shadow side of the fortune of love.

More quotes by Carl Jung
The man who promises everything is sure to fulfil nothing, and everyone who promises too much is in danger of using evil means in order to carry out his promises, and is already on the road to perdition.
Carl Jung
A purely psychological explanation is ruled out... the discs show signs of intelligent guidance, by quasi-human pilots.
Carl Jung
Unfortunately, there can be no doubt that man is, on the whole, less good than he imagines himself or wants to be. Everyone carries a shadow, and the less it is embodied in the individual's conscious life, the blacker and darker it is. If an inferiority is conscious, one always has a chance to correct it
Carl Jung
Naturally, every age thinks that all ages before it were prejudiced, and today we think this more than ever and are just as wrong as all previous ages that thought so. How often have we not seen the truth condemned! It is sad but unfortunately true that man learns nothing from history.
Carl Jung
VOCATUS ATQUE NON VOCATUS DEUS ADERIT.
Carl Jung
All fanaticism is repressed doubt.
Carl Jung
Synchronistic events provide an immediate religious experience as a direct encounter with the compensatory patterning of events in nature as a whole, both inwardly and outwardly.
Carl Jung
You must go in quest of yourself, and you will find yourself again only in the simple and forgotten things.
Carl Jung
Not only does the psyche exist, but it is existence itself. It is an almost absurd prejudice to suppose that existence can only be physical...We might well say, on the contrary, that physical existence is a mere inference, since we know of matter only in so far as we perceive psychic images mediated by the senses.
Carl Jung
In my case Pilgrim's Progress consisted in my having to climb down a thousand ladders until I could reach out my hand to the little clod of earth that I am.
Carl Jung
Modern man is sick because he is not whole.
Carl Jung
The world will ask you who you are, and if you don't know, the world will tell you.
Carl Jung
When religion stops talking about animals it will be all downhill.
Carl Jung
To me dreams are part of nature, which harbors no intention to deceive but expresses something as best it can.
Carl Jung
Doesn't the world bring forth thinking in human heads with the same necessity that it brings forth blossoms on the plant?
Carl Jung
In the second half of life the necessity is imposed of recognizing no longer the validity of our former ideals but of their contraries. Of perceiving the error in what was previously our conviction, of sensing the untruth in what was our truth, and of weighing the degree of opposition, and even of hostility, in what we took to be love.
Carl Jung
One cannot live without inconsistency.
Carl Jung
One is always in the dark about one's own personality. One needs others to get to know oneself.
Carl Jung
From the middle of life onward, only he remains vitally alive who is ready to die with life.
Carl Jung
Who has fully realized that history is not contained in thick books but lives in our very blood?
Carl Jung
