Carl Jung

The debt we owe to the play of imagination is incalculable.

Carl Jung

The doctor is effective only when he himself is affected. Only the wounded physician heals.

Carl Jung

The dream shows the inner truth and reality of the patient as it really is: not as I conjecture it to be, and not as he would like it to be, but as it is.

Carl Jung

The experience of the self is always a defeat for the ego.

Carl Jung

The first half of life is devoted to forming a healthy ego, the second half is going inward and letting go of it.

Carl Jung

The foundation of all mental illness is the unwillingness to experience legitimate suffering.

Carl Jung

The general function of dreams is to try to restore our psychological balance by producing dream material that re-establishes, in a subtle way, the total psychic equilibrium.

Carl Jung

The greater the contrast, the greater the potential. Great energy only comes from a correspondingly great tension of opposites.

Carl Jung

The greater the tension, the greater is the potential.

Carl Jung

The greatest sin is to be unconscious.
