Carl Jung
Image
At present we educate people only up to the point where they can earn a living and marry then education ceases altogether, as though a complete mental outfit had been acquired. ... Vast numbers of men and women thus spend their entire lives in complete ignorance of the most important things.
Carl Jung
Image

If you are unhappy, you are too high up in your mind.
Carl Jung
Image
I live in my deepest hell and from there I cannot fall any further.
Carl Jung
Image
