Carl Jung
Image
Whenever there is a reaching down into innermost experience, into the nucleus of personality, most people are overcome by fear and many run away. . . The risk of inner experience, the adventure of the spirit, is in any case alien to most human beings. The possibility that such experience might have psychic reality is anathema to them.
Carl Jung
Image
The doctor is effective only when he himself is affected. Only the wounded physician heals.
Carl Jung
Image
I have frequently seen people become neurotic when they content themselves with inadequate or wrong answers to the questions of life.
