Carl Jung

All the most powerful ideas in history go back to archetypes.

Carl Jung

All the works of man have their origin in creative fantasy. What right have we then to depreciate imagination.

Carl Jung

An archetypal content expresses itself, first and foremost, in metaphors.

Carl Jung

An old man who cannot bid farewell to life appears as feeble and sickly as the young man who is unable to embrace it.

Carl Jung

Anyone who wants to know the human psyche will learn next to nothing from experimental psychology. He would be better advised to abandon exact science, put away his scholar’s gown, bid farewell to his study, and wander with human heart through the world.

Carl Jung

As a child I felt myself to be alone, and I am still, because I know things and must hint at things which others apparently know nothing of, and for the most part do not want to know.

Carl Jung

As understanding deepens, the further removed it becomes from knowledge.

Carl Jung

Be simple and always take the next step. You needn’t see it in advance, but you can look back at it afterwards.There is no ‘how’ of life, one just does it.

Carl Jung

Becoming conscious is of course a sacrilege against nature; it is as though you had robbed the unconscious of something.

Carl Jung

But India did not pass me by without a trace: it left tracks which lead me from one infinity to another infinity.

Carl Jung
