More quotes by Carl Jung
We should not pretend to understand the world only by the intellect. The judgement of the intellect is only part of the truth.
Carl Jung
My interests drew me in different directions. On the one hand I was powerfully attracted by science, with its truths based on facts on the other hand I was fascinated by everything to do with comparative religion. [...] In science I missed the factor of meaning and in religion, that of empiricism.
Carl Jung
Plato's world of ideas is beautiful.
Carl Jung
In such doubtful matters, where you have to work as a pioneer, you must be able to put some trust in your intuition and follow your feeling even at the risk of going wrong.
Carl Jung
The educated man tries to repress the inferior one in himself, without realizing that by this he forces the latter to become revolutionary.
Carl Jung
Just imagine what would happen if practicing physicians, the ones who have come into contact directly with suffering humanity, had some acquaintance with Eastern systems of healing. The Spirit of the East surges through every pore as a balm for all afflictions.
Carl Jung
Recognition of the reality of evil necessarily relativizes the good, and the evil likewise, converting both into halves of a paradoxical whole.
Carl Jung
A man who has not passed through the inferno of his passions has never overcome them. They then dwell in the house next door, and at any moment a flame may dart out and set fire to his own house. Whenever we give up, leave behind, and forget too much, there is always the danger that the things we have neglected will return with added force.
Carl Jung
I could well imagine that I might have lived in former centuries and there encountered questions I was not yet able to answer that I had been born again because I had not fulfilled the task given to me.
Carl Jung
The distinction between mind and body is an artificial dichotomy, a discrimination which is unquestionably based far more on the peculiarity of intellectual understanding than on the nature of things.
Carl Jung
The greatest tragedy of the family is the unlived lives of the parents.
Carl Jung
I readily admit that I have such a great respect for what happens in the human soul that I would be afraid of disturbing and distorting the silent operation of nature by clumsy interference.
Carl Jung
A particularly beautiful woman is a source of terror. As a rule, a beautiful woman is a terrible disappointment.
Carl Jung
Intuition does not denote something contrary to reason, but something outside of the province of reason.
Carl Jung
I am no longer alone with myself, and I can only artificially recall the scary and beautiful feeling of solitude. This is the shadow side of the fortune of love.
Carl Jung
Every psychic advance of man arises from the suffering of the soul.
Carl Jung
Neurosis is the natural by-product of pain avoidance.
Carl Jung
At times I feel as if I am spread out over the landscape and inside things, and am myself living in every tree, in the plashing of the waves, in the clouds and the animals that come and go, in the procession of the seasons.
Carl Jung
In all chaos there is a cosmos, in all disorder a secret order.
Carl Jung
From the middle of life onward, only he remains vitally alive who is ready to die with life.
Carl Jung
