I have gradually learned to be cautious even in disbelief
Carl Jung

Whenever we give up, leave behind, and forget too much, there is always the danger that the things we have neglected will return with added force
Carl Jung
Image
Remember that the only God man comes in contact with is his own God, called Spirit, Soul and Mind, or Consciousness, and these three are one.
Carl Jung
Image
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
Image
The difference between a good life and a bad life is how well you walk through the fire
Carl Jung

The decisive question for man is: Is he related to something infinite or not? That is the telling question of his life.
Carl Jung
Image
The teacher pretended that algebra was a perfectly natural affair, to be taken for granted, whereas I didn't even know what numbers were. Mathematics classes became sheer terror and torture to me. I was so intimidated by my incomprehension that I did not dare to ask any questions.

The principle aim of psychotherapy is not to transport one to an impossible state of happiness, but to help (the client) acquire steadfastness and patience in the face of suffering.
