Doesn't the world bring forth thinking in human heads with the same necessity that it brings forth blossoms on the plant?

At times I feel as if I am spread out over the landscape and inside things, and am myself living in every tree, in the plashing of the waves, in the clouds and the animals that come and go, in the procession of the seasons.
Carl Jung
Image
The woman is increasingly aware that love alone can give her full stature, just as the man begins to discern that spirit alone can endow his life with its highest meaning. Fundamentally, therefore, both seek a psychic relation to the other, because love needs the spirit, and the spirit love, for their fulfillment.

One cannot free oneself by bowing to the yoke, but by breaking it.
Carl Jung

The little world of childhood with its familiar surroundings is a model of the greater world. The more intensively the family has stamped its character upon the child, the more it will tend to feel and see its earlier miniature world again in the bigger world of adult life. Naturally this is not a conscious, intellectual process.
Carl Jung
Image
And what shall we know of this life on earth after death? The dissolution of our timebound form in eternity brings no loss of meaning. Rather, does the little finger know itself a member of the hand.
Carl Jung
Image
We discover ourselves through others.

Knowing your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darknesses of other people.

Special knowledge is a terrible disadvantage.

Only the wounded physician heals.
