Carl Jung
Image
You can exert no influence if you are not susceptible to influence.
Carl Jung
Image
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

Carl Jung
Image
It is the function of the Church to oppose all original experience, because this can only be unorthodox.
Carl Jung
Image
If you should see people in a room, you would not think that you had made those people, or that you were responsible for them.
Carl Jung
Image
How can anyone see straight when he does not see himself and the darkness he unconsciously carries with him into all his dealings?
Carl Jung
Image
The principle aim of psychotherapy is not to transport one to an impossible state of happiness, but to help (the client) acquire steadfastness and patience in the face of suffering.
Carl Jung
Image
It is sad but unfortunately true that man learns nothing from history.
Carl Jung
