More quotes by Carl Jung
The sight of a child…will arouse certain longings in adult, civilized persons — longings which relate to the unfulfilled desires and needs of those parts of the personality which have been blotted out of the total picture in favor of the adapted persona.
Carl Jung
We are living in what the Greeks called the kairos - the right moment - for a 'metamorphosis of the gods', of the fundamental principles and symbols. This peculiarity of our time, which is certainly not of our conscious choosing, is the expression of the unconscious man within us who is changing.
Carl Jung
The whole point of Jesus's life was not that we should become exactly like him, but that we should become ourselves in the same way he became himself. Jesus was not the great exception but the great example.
Carl Jung
One cannot live without inconsistency.
Carl Jung
Intuition is perception via the unconscious that brings forth ideas, images, new possibilities and ways out of blocked situations.
Carl Jung
The psyche is a natural phenomenon. All aspects of the psyche, even those which seem pathological or destructive, actually serve the function of furthering our psychological development.
Carl Jung
Embrace your grief. For there, your soul will grow.
Carl Jung
Once upon a time men were possessed by devils. Now they are not less obsessed by ideas
Carl Jung
Everyone you meet knows something you don't know but need to know. Learn from them.
Carl Jung
The dream is a little hidden door in the innermost and most secret recesses of the soul, opening into that cosmic night which was psyche long before there was any ego-consciousness, and which will remain psyche no matter how far our ego-consciousness extends.
Carl Jung
Life calls not for perfection, but for completeness.
Carl Jung
Our intellect has achieved the most tremendous things, but in the meantime our spiritual dwelling has fallen into disrepair.
Carl Jung
We should know what our convictions are, and stand for them. Upon one's own philosophy, conscious or unconscious, depends one's ultimate interpretation of facts. Therefore it is wise to be as clear as possible about one's subjective principles. As the man is, so will be his ultimate truth.
Carl Jung
A book of mine is always a matter of fate. There is something unpredictable about the process of writing, and I cannot prescribe for myself any predetermined course.
Carl Jung
Conflict exists strictly as an opportunity to raise our consciousness.
Carl Jung
If you want to understand the jungle, you can't be content just to sail back and forth near the shore. You've got to get into it, no matter how strange and frightening it might seem.
Carl Jung
New ideas are not only the enemies of old ones they also appear often in an extremely unacceptable form.
Carl Jung
Sometimes you have to do something unforgivable just to be able to go on living.
Carl Jung
If one does not understand a person, one tends to regard him as a fool.
Carl Jung
In the second half of life the necessity is imposed of recognizing no longer the validity of our former ideals but of their contraries. Of perceiving the error in what was previously our conviction, of sensing the untruth in what was our truth, and of weighing the degree of opposition, and even of hostility, in what we took to be love.
Carl Jung
