Carl Jung

Carl Jung
Image
The symbol in the dream has more the value of a parable: it does not conceal, it teaches.
Carl Jung
Image
The wine of youth does not always clear with advancing years sometimes it grows turbid.
Carl Jung
Image
The educated man tries to repress the inferior one in himself, without realizing that by this he forces the latter to become revolutionary.
Carl Jung
Image
The self as the essence of individuality is unitemporal and unique as an archetypal symbol it is a God-image and therefore universal and eternal.
Carl Jung
Image
The psychotherapist learns little or nothing from his successes. They mainly confirm him in his mistakes, while his failures, on the other hand, are priceless experiences in that they not only open up the way to a deeper truth, but force him to change his views and methods.
Carl Jung
Image
Every victory contains the germ of future defeat.
Carl Jung
Image
Becoming conscious is of course a sacrilege against nature it is as though you had robbed the unconscious of something.
Carl Jung
