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
You are a slave of what you need in your soul.
Carl Jung
Image
Imagination is a concentrated extract of all the forces of life.
Carl Jung
Image
I believe that we have no real access to who we really are except in God. Only when we rest in God can we find the safety, the spaciousness, and the scary freedom to be who we are, all that we are, more than we are, and less than we are.
Carl Jung
Image
What is not brought to consciousness, comes to us as fate.
Carl Jung
Image
The more veiled becomes the outside world, steadily losing in colour, tone and passions, the more urgently the inner world calls us
Carl Jung
Image
A sign is always less than the thing it points to, and a symbol is always more than we can understand at first sight. Therefore we stop at the sign but go on to the goal it indicates but we remain with the symbol because it promises more than it reveals.
Carl Jung
Image
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
Image
I live in my deepest hell and from there I cannot fall any further.
Carl Jung
Image
Everyone knows nowadays that people 'have complexes'. What is not so well known, though far more important theoretically, is that complexes can have us.
Carl Jung
Image
Intuition (is) perception via the unconscious
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
If you want to understand the jungle, you can't be content just to sail back and forth near the shore. You've got to get into it, no matter how strange and frightening it might seem.
Carl Jung
Image
The brighter the light, the darker the shadow.
Carl Jung
Image
The best political, social, and spiritual work we can do is to withdraw the projection of our shadow onto others.
Carl Jung
Image
From the living fountain of instinct flows everything that is creative hence the unconscious is not merely conditioned by history, but is the very source of the creative impulse. It is like nature herself - prodigiously conservative, and yet transcending her own historical conditions in her acts of creation.
Carl Jung
Image
The seat of faith, however, is not consciousness but spontaneous religious experience, which brings the individual's faith into immediate relation with God.
Carl Jung
Image
I am the triple owner of the world, the finest Turkey, the Lorelei, Germania and Helvetia of exclusively sweet butter and Naples, and I must supply the whole world with macaroni.
Carl Jung
Image
As a plant produces its flower, so the psyche creates its symbols.
Carl Jung
Image
No psychic value can disappear without being replaced by another of equivalent intensity.
Carl Jung
