Carl Jung quotes about

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort.
Where do we live symbolically? Nowhere except where we participate in the ritual of life.
It is also possible for the unconscious or an archetype to take complete possession of a man and to determine his fate down to the smallest detail
There is rarely a creative man who does not have to pay a high price for the divine spark of his great gifts . . . the human element is frequently bled for the benefit of the creative element.
Nothing is possible without love.
In each of us there is another whom we do not know.
A collection of a hundred great brains makes one big fathead.
The self is our life's goal, for it is the completest expression of that fateful combination we call individuality.
Everything psychic is pregnant with the future.
Fortunately, in her kindness and patience, Nature has never put the fatal question as to the meaning of their lives into the mouths of most people. And where no one asks, no one needs to answer.
No psychic value can disappear without being replaced by another of equivalent intensity.
I have always tried to make room for anything that wanted to come to me from within.
