Carl Jung
Image
The sure path can only lead to death.
Carl Jung

Consciousness succumbs all too easily to unconscious influences, and these are often truer and wiser than our conscious thinking.
Carl Jung
Image
Enchantment is the oldest form of medicine.
Carl Jung
Image
Science is the art of creating suitable illusions which the fool believes or argues against, but the wise man enjoys for their beauty or their ingenuity, without being blind to the fact that they are human veils and curtains concealing the abysmal darkness of the unknowable
Carl Jung
Image
Intuition is one of the four basic psychological functions along with thinking, feeling,and sensing.
Carl Jung
Image
Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of awareness of darkness... as the contrast between what we have and how it could be worse is vital to appreciate anything, including our life, and so be happy and grateful
Carl Jung
Image

Carl Jung
