Image
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.
Carl Jung
Image
Somewhere, right at the bottom of one’s own being, one generally does know where one should go and what one should do. But there are times when the clown we call “I” behaves in such a distracting fashion that the inner voice cannot make its presence felt.
Carl Jung
Image
Summoned or not, the god will come.
Carl Jung
Image
You can take away a man's gods, but only to give him others in return.
Carl Jung
Image
If there is a fear of falling, the only safety consists in deliberately jumping.
Carl Jung
Image
The unconscious wants to flow into consciousness in order to reach the light, but at the same time it continually thwarts itself, because it would rather remain unconscious. That is to say, God wants to become man, but not quite.
Carl Jung
Image
Individualization does not shut one out from the world, but gathers the world to oneself.
Carl Jung
Image
It is indeed time for the clergyman and the psychotherapist to join forces.
Carl Jung
Image
To the critical intelligence, nothing is left of absolute reality.
Carl Jung

The person who looks outward dreams, the person who looks inward awakens.
Carl Jung
Image
We carry our past with us, to wit, the primitive and inferior man with his desires and emotions, and it is only with an enormous effort that we can detach ourselves from this burden. If it comes to a neurosis, we invariably have to deal with a considerably intensified shadow.
Carl Jung
Image
As any change must begin somewhere, it is the single individual who will experience it and carry it through. The change must indeed begin with an individual it might be any one of us. Nobody can afford to look round and to wait for somebody else to do what he is loath to do himself.
Carl Jung
Image
People cannot stand too much Reality.
Carl Jung
Image
It is just man's turning away from instinct--his opposing himself to instinct--that creates consciousness. Instinct is nature andseeks to perpetuate nature while consciousness can only seek culture or its denial.
Carl Jung
Image
All fanaticism is repressed doubt.
Carl Jung
Image
If one does not understand a person, one tends to regard him as a fool.
Carl Jung
Image
Conflict exists strictly as an opportunity to raise our consciousness.
Carl Jung
Image
Nobody, as long as he moves about among the chaotic currents of life, is without trouble.
Carl Jung
Image
There was need of a phantastic, indestructible optimism, and one far removed from all sense of reality, in order, for example, to discover in the shameful death of Christ really the highest salvation and the redemption of the world.
Carl Jung
Image
Music is the application of sounds to the canvas of silence.
Carl Jung
