Carl Jung

Carl Jung

Wo die Liebe herrscht, da gibt es keinen machtwillen, und wo die macht den vorrang hat, da fehlt die Liebe. Das eine ist der Schatten des andern. Translation: Where love rules, there is no will to power and where power predominates, there love is lacking. The one is the shadow of the other.
Carl Jung

Carl Jung

Invited or not, God is present.
Carl Jung
Image
We discover ourselves through others.
Carl Jung
Image
That which we do not confront in ourselves we will meet as fate.
Carl Jung
Image
It is just man's turning away from instinct--his opposing himself to instinct--that creates consciousness. Instinct is nature andseeks to perpetuate nature while consciousness can only seek culture or its denial.
Carl Jung
Image
It is only our deeds that reveal who we are.
Carl Jung
Image
Language, in its origin and essence, is simply a system of signs or symbols that denote real occurrences or their echo in the human soul.
Carl Jung
Image
Sensation tell us a thing is. Thinking tell us what it is this thing is. Feeling tells us what this thing is to us.
Carl Jung
Image
It is sad but unfortunately true that man learns nothing from history.
Carl Jung
