Carl Jung
Image
A dream that is not understood remains a mere occurrence understood it becomes a living experience.
Carl Jung
Image
The principle aim of psychotherapy is not to transport one to an impossible state of happiness, but to help (the client) acquire steadfastness and patience in the face of suffering.
Carl Jung
Image
The symbols of the self arise in the depths of the body, and they express its materiality every bit as much as the perceiving consciousness. The symbol is thus a living body
Carl Jung
Image
The judgment of the intellect is, at best, only the half of truth.
Carl Jung
Image
As any change must begin somewhere, it is the single individual who will experience it and carry it through. The change must indeed begin with an individual it might be any one of us. Nobody can afford to look round and to wait for somebody else to do what he is loath to do himself.
Carl Jung
Image
In each of us is another whom we do not know. He speaks to us in dreams and tells us how differently he sees us from the way we see ourselves.
Carl Jung
