Life really does begin at forty. Up until then, you are just doing research.
Carl Jung
Image
As a plant produces its flower, so the psyche creates its symbols.
Carl Jung
Image
Be grateful for your difficulties and challenges, for they hold blessings. In fact... Man needs difficulties they are necessary for health personal growth, individuation and self-actualisation.
Carl Jung
Image
Wo die Liebe herrscht, da gibt es keinen machtwillen, und wo die macht den vorrang hat, da fehlt die Liebe. Das eine ist der Schatten des andern. Translation: Where love rules, there is no will to power and where power predominates, there love is lacking. The one is the shadow of the other.
Carl Jung
Image
The more uncertain I have felt about myself, the more there has grown up in me a feeling of kinship with all things.
Carl Jung
Image
Criticism can be effective when there is something that must be destroyed or dissolved, but it is capable only of harm when there is something to be built.
Carl Jung
Image
That which compels us to create a substitute for ourselves is not the external lack of objects, but our incapacity to lovingly include a thing outside of ourselves
Carl Jung
Image
Our heart glows, and secret unrest gnaws at the root of our being. Dealing with the unconscious has become a question of life for us.
Carl Jung
Image
Science is the art of creating suitable illusions which the fool believes or argues against, but the wise man enjoys for their beauty or their ingenuity, without being blind to the fact that they are human veils and curtains concealing the abysmal darkness of the unknowable
Carl Jung
Image
Man's unconscious... contains all the patterns of life and behaviour inherited from his ancestors, so that every human child, prior to consciousness, is possessed of a potential system of adapted psychic functioning.
Carl Jung
Image
The self is defined psychologically as the psychic totality of the individual. Anything that a [person] postulates as being a greater totality than [oneself] can become a symbol of the self. For this reason the symbol of the self is not always as total as the definition would require.
Carl Jung
Image
Deep down, below the surface of the average man's conscience, he hears a voice whispering, There is something not right, no matter how much his rightness is supported by public opinion or moral code.
Carl Jung
Image
The word 'happiness' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced and contrasted and compared to sadness. In comparing how an experience could have been worse we develop gratitude and happiness, while if we compare it how it could have been better we develop bitterness and sadness.
Carl Jung
Image
We cannot change anything until we accept it. Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses.
Carl Jung
Image
Life is a luminous pause between two mysteries that are yet one.
Carl Jung
Image
In the history of the collective as in the history of the individual, everything depends on the development of consciousness.
Carl Jung
Image
A [wo]man who is unconscious of [her/]himself acts in a blind, instinctive way and is in addition fooled by all the illusions that arise when he sees everything that he is not conscious of in himself coming to meet him from outside as projections upon his neighbour.
Carl Jung
Image
What we do not make conscious emerges later as fate.
Carl Jung

Enchantment is the oldest form of medicine.
Carl Jung

Dream the dream onward.
