More quotes by Carl Jung

Image
Just as man as a social being, cannot in the long run exist without a tie to the community, so the individual will never find the real justification for his existence, and his own spiritual and moral autonomy, anywhere except in an extramundane principle capable of relativizing the overpowering influence of external factors.
Carl Jung
Image
All ages before ours believed in gods in some form or other. Only an unparalleled impoverishment in symbolism could enable us to rediscover the gods as psychic factors, which is to say, as archetypes of the unconscious. No doubt this discovery is hardly credible as yet.
Carl Jung
Image
The Christian missionary may preach the gospel to the poor naked heathen, but the spiritual heathen who populate Europe have as yet heard nothing of Christianity.
Carl Jung
Image
To be normal is the ultimate aim of the unsuccessful.
Carl Jung
Image
Called or not, God is always there.
Carl Jung
Image
The totality of the psyche can never be grasped by the intellect alone.
Carl Jung

A man's hatred is always concentrated upon that which makes him conscious of his bad qualities.
Carl Jung
Image
Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. It is far better take things as they come along with patience and equanimity.
Carl Jung
Image
...The unconscious has no time. There is no trouble about time in the unconscious. Part of our psyche is not in time and not in space. They are only an illusion, time and space, and so in a certain part of our psyche time does not exist at all.
Carl Jung
Image
The psychic depths are nature, and nature is creative life.
Carl Jung
Image
One cannot free oneself by bowing to the yoke, but by breaking it.
Carl Jung
Image
Creativity is the art that can give rise to visionary metaphorical relationships, as opposed to purely psy-chological ones.
Carl Jung
Image
I live in my deepest hell and from there I cannot fall any further.
Carl Jung
Image
Remember that the only God man comes in contact with is his own God, called Spirit, Soul and Mind, or Consciousness, and these three are one.
Carl Jung
Image
Even a lie is a psychic fact.
Carl Jung
Image
For the alchemist the one primarily in need of redemption is not man, but the deity who is lost and sleeping in matter.
Carl Jung
Image
Be grateful for your difficulties and challenges, for they hold blessings. In fact... Man needs difficulties they are necessary for health personal growth, individuation and self-actualisation.
Carl Jung
Image
You must go in quest of yourself, and you will find yourself again only in the simple and forgotten things.
Carl Jung
Image
If you are unhappy, you are too high up in your mind.
Carl Jung
