What we lack is intensity of life.
Carl Jung
Image
I believe that we have no real access to who we really are except in God. Only when we rest in God can we find the safety, the spaciousness, and the scary freedom to be who we are, all that we are, more than we are, and less than we are.
Carl Jung
Image
Primitive superstition lies just below the surface of even the most tough-minded individuals, and it is precisely those who most fight against it who are the first to succumb to its suggestive effects.
Carl Jung
Image
In some way or other we are part of a single, all-embracing psyche, a single 'greatest man. . . .'
Carl Jung
Image
The psychopathology of the masses is rooted in the psychology of the individual

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
Do not compare, do not measure. No other way is like yours. All other ways deceive and tempt you. You must fulfill the way that is in you.
Carl Jung
Image
It is indeed time for the clergyman and the psychotherapist to join forces.
Carl Jung
Image
We don't get wounded alone and we don't heal alone.
Carl Jung
Image
Man cannot stand a meaningless life.
Carl Jung
Image
Science is not ... a perfect instrument, but it is a superb and invaluable tool that works harm only when taken as an end in itself.
Carl Jung
Image
To find out what is truly individual in ourselves, profound reflection is needed and suddenly we realize how uncommonly difficult the discovery of individuality is.
Carl Jung
Image
Through pride we are ever deceiving ourselves. But deep down below the surface of the average conscience a still, small voice says to us, something is out of tune.
Carl Jung
Image
The totality of the psyche can never be grasped by the intellect alone.
Carl Jung
Image
Simple things are always the most difficult.
Carl Jung
Image
One is always in the dark about one's own personality. One needs others to get to know oneself.
Carl Jung
Image
There are cases where psychoanalysis works worse than anything else. But who said that psychoanalysis was to be applied always and everywhere.
Carl Jung
Image
In such doubtful matters, where you have to work as a pioneer, you must be able to put some trust in your intuition and follow your feeling even at the risk of going wrong.
Carl Jung
