More quotes by Carl Jung

Image
In sleep, fantasy takes the form of dreams. But in waking life, too, we continue to dream beneath the threshold of consciousness, especially when under the influence of repressed or other unconscious complexes.
Carl Jung
Image
To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real.
Carl Jung
Image
The psychic depths are nature, and nature is creative life.
Carl Jung
Image
Sometimes you have to do something unforgivable just to be able to go on living.
Carl Jung
Image
Life calls not for perfection, but for completeness.
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
Somewhere, right at the bottom of one’s own being, one generally does know where one should go and what one should do. But there are times when the clown we call “I” behaves in such a distracting fashion that the inner voice cannot make its presence felt.
Carl Jung
Image
But we cannot live the afternoon of life according to the programme of life's morning — for what was great in the morning will be little at evening, and what in the morning was true will at evening have become a lie.
Carl Jung
Image
In the products of the unconscious we discover mandala symbols, that is, circular and quaternity figures which express wholeness, and whenever we wish to express wholeness, we employ just such figures.
Carl Jung
Image
The person who looks outward dreams, the person who looks inward awakens.
Carl Jung
Image
To the critical intelligence, nothing is left of absolute reality.
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
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
Anyone who wants to know the human psyche will learn next to nothing from experimental psychology. He would be better advised to abandon exact science, put away his scholar's gown, bid farewell to his study, and wander with human heart through the world.
Carl Jung
Image
A book of mine is always a matter of fate. There is something unpredictable about the process of writing, and I cannot prescribe for myself any predetermined course.
Carl Jung
Image
Just imagine what would happen if practicing physicians, the ones who have come into contact directly with suffering humanity, had some acquaintance with Eastern systems of healing. The Spirit of the East surges through every pore as a balm for all afflictions.
Carl Jung
Image
We all must do what Christ did. We must make our experiment. We must make mistakes. We must live out our own version of life. And there will be error. If you avoid error you do not live.
Carl Jung
Image
Faith, hope, love, and insight are the highest achievements of human effort. They are found-given-by experience.
Carl Jung
Image
It is not for us . . . to send out missionaries to foreign peoples it is our task to build up our own Western culture.
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
