More quotes by Carl Jung
To become acquainted with oneself is a terrible shock.
Carl Jung
Only one who has risked the fight with the dragon and is not overcome by it wins the treasure hard to attain. He alone has a genuine claim to self-confidence, for he has faced the dark ground of his self and thereby has gained himself. This experience gives him faith and trust.
Carl Jung
A man who has not passed through the inferno of his passions has never overcome them.
Carl Jung

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
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
To the critical intelligence, nothing is left of absolute reality.
Carl Jung
I have frequently seen people become neurotic when they content themselves with inadequate or wrong answers to the questions of life.
Carl Jung
Follow that will and that way which experience confirms to be your own.
Carl Jung
Neurosis is the suffering of a soul which has not discovered its meaning.
Carl Jung
Everyone is in love with his own ideas
Carl Jung
The maintenance of secrets acts like a psychic poison which alienates the possessor from the community.
Carl Jung
For, in order to turn the individual into a function of the State, his dependence on anything beside the State must be taken from him.
Carl Jung
How can I be substantial if I do not cast a shadow? I must have a dark side also If I am to be whole
Carl Jung
Man positively needs general ideas and convictions that will give a meaning to his life and enable him to find a place for himself in the universe.
Carl Jung
You are what you do, not what you say you'll do.
Carl Jung
If there is a fear of falling, the only safety consists in deliberately jumping.
Carl Jung
Projection [of our own shadow] makes the whole world a replica of our own unknown face.
Carl Jung
In some way or other we are part of a single, all-embracing psyche, a single 'greatest man. . . .'
Carl Jung
So the lion is the law-breaker. Just as to the primitive man the lion is the lawbreaker, the great nuisance, dangerous to human beings and to animals, that breaks into the Kraal at night and fetches the bull out of the herd: he is the destructive instinct.
Carl Jung
