Image
Psychoanalysis cannot be considered a method of education if by education we mean the topiary art of clipping a tree into a beautiful artificial shape. But those who have a higher conception of education will prize most the method of cultivating a tree so that it fulfils to perfection its own natural conditions of growth.
Carl Jung
Image
Knowing your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darknesses of other people.
Carl Jung
Image
One might expect, perhaps, that a man full of genius could pasture in the greatness of his own thoughts, and renounce the cheap approbation of the crowd which he despises yet he succumbs to the more powerful impulse of the herd instinct. His searching and his finding, his call, belong to the herd.
Carl Jung
Image
You are what you do, not what you say you'll do.
Carl Jung
Image
We deem those happy who from the experience of life have learnt to bear its ills without being overcome by them.
Carl Jung
Image
What happens in the life of Christ happens always and everywhere. In the Christian archetype all lives of this kind are prefigured.
Carl Jung

The majority of my patients consisted not of believers but of those who had lost their faith.
Carl Jung
Image
Aging people should know that their lives are not mounting and unfolding but that an inexorable inner process forces the contraction of life. For a young person it is almost a sin and certainly a danger to be too much occupied with himself but for the aging person it is a duty and a necessity to give serious attention to himself.
Carl Jung
Image
The dream is a series of images, which are apparently contradictory and nonsensical, but arise in reality from psychologic material which yields a clear meaning.
Carl Jung
Image
Dreams are the guiding words of the Soul.
Carl Jung
Image
On the level of the Son there is no answer to the question of good and evil there is only an incurable separation of the opposites. . . . It seems to me to be the Holy Spirit's task and charge to reconcile and reunite the opposites in the human individual through a special development of the human soul.
Carl Jung
Image
Neurosis is the natural by-product of pain avoidance.
Carl Jung
Image
Follow that will and that way which experience confirms to be your own.
Carl Jung
Image
Nobody, as long as he moves about among the chaotic currents of life, is without trouble.
Carl Jung
Image
The greater the tension, the greater is the potential.
Carl Jung
Image
From the living fountain of instinct flows everything that is creative hence the unconscious is not merely conditioned by history, but is the very source of the creative impulse. It is like nature herself - prodigiously conservative, and yet transcending her own historical conditions in her acts of creation.
Carl Jung
Image
The gods have become our diseases.
Carl Jung
Image
In the products of the unconscious we discover mandala symbols, that is, circular and quaternity figures which express wholeness, and whenever we wish to express wholeness, we employ just such figures.
Carl Jung
Image
The self as the essence of individuality is unitemporal and unique as an archetypal symbol it is a God-image and therefore universal and eternal.
Carl Jung
Image
The cinema, like the detective story, makes it possible to experience without danger all the excitement, passion and desirousness which must be repressed in a humanitarian ordering of life.
