To this day God is the name by which I designate all things which cross my willful path violently and recklessly, all things which upset my subjective views, plans and intentions and change the course of my life for better or worse.

Views, Names, Upset

Carl Gustav Jung, Murray Stein (1999). “Jung on Christianity”, p.6, Princeton University Press

You can take away a man's gods, but only to give him others in return.

Men, Giving, Return

Carl Gustav Jung (2013). “The Undiscovered Self”, p.46, Routledge

It is my mind, with its store of images, that gives the world colour and sound; and that supremely real and rational certainty which I call "experience" is, in its most simple form, an exceedingly complicated structure of mental images. Thus there is, in a certain sense, nothing that is directly experienced except the mind itself. Everything is mediated through the mind.

Color, Giving, Mind

"The structure and dynamics of the psyche".

...it seemed to me I was living in an insane asylum of my own making. I wnt about with all these fantastic figures: centaurs, nymphs, satyrs, gods and goddesses, as though they were patients and I was analyzing them. I read a Greek or Negro myth as if a lunatic were telling me his anamnesis.

Nymphs, Greek, Insane

I readily admit that I have such a great respect for what happens in the human soul that I would be afraid of disturbing and distorting the silent operation of nature by clumsy interference.

Soul, Would Be, Silent

Carl Gustav Jung (1977). “The Collected Works of C. G. Jung”, Bollingen

Art is a kind of innate drive that seizes a human being and makes him its instrument.

Art, Kind, Instruments

Carl Gustav Jung (2001). “Modern Man in Search of a Soul”, p.173, Psychology Press

Every civilized human being, whatever his conscious development, is still an archaic man at the deeper levels of his psyche.

Men, Levels, Conscious

Carl Gustav Jung (2001). “Modern Man in Search of a Soul”, p.128, Psychology Press

Our mind has its history, just as our body has its history. You might be just as astonished that man has an appendix, for instance. Does he know he ought to have an appendix? He is just born with it....Our unconscious mind, like our body, is a storehouse of relics and memories of the past. A study of the structure of the unconscious collective mind would reveal the same discoveries as you make in comparative anatomy. We do not need to think that there is anything mystical about it.

Dream, Memories, Past

"Analytical Psychology: Its Theory and Practice".

...the soul does not require the organs of sense in order to see, hear, smell, taste and feel, in a much more perfect state; but with this great difference, that in such a state, it stands in much nearer connection with the spirtual than the material world.

Order, Smell, Differences

Six weeks after his death my father appeared to me in a dream... It was an unforgettable experience, and it forced me for the first time to think about life after death.

Dream, Father, Thinking

To make what fate intends for me my own intention

Fate, Intention, My Own

The angel personifies something new arising from the deep unconscious.

Inspiring, Angel, Something New

The psyche is a natural phenomenon. All aspects of the psyche, even those which seem pathological or destructive, actually serve the function of furthering our psychological development.

Development, Psychological, Natural

The conscious mind allows itself to be trained like a parrot, but the unconscious does not — which is why St. Augustine thanked God for not making him responsible for his dreams.

"Psychology and Alchemy". Book by Carl Jung. Paragraph 51, p. 46, 1952.

As soon as the dialogue between two people touches on something fundamental, essential, numinous, and a certain rapport is felt, it gives rise to a phenomenon which Lévy-Bruhl fittingly called participation mystique. It is an unconscious identity in which two individual psychic spheres interpenetrate to such a degree that it is impossible to say what belongs to whom.

Psychics, Two, People

Carl Gustav Jung, Herbert Read, Michael Fordham, Gerhard Adler (1964). “Civilization in transition”

It is in the nature of political bodies always to see the evil in the opposite group, just as the individual has an ineradicable tendency to get rid of everything he does not know and does not want to know about himself by foisting it off on somebody else. Nothing has a more diverse and alienating effect upon society than this moral complacency and lack of responsibility, and nothing promotes understanding and rapprochement more than the mutual withdrawal of projections.

Responsibility, Opposites, Evil

"The Undiscovered Self".

The greatest tragedy of the family is the unlived lives of the parents.

Parenting, Parent, Tragedy

The inner man has access to the sense organs of god.

Men, Organs, Access

Your vision will be clearer only when you manage to see within your heart.

Heart, Vision, Manage

Paul hardly ever allows the real Jesus of Nazareth to get a word in.

Jesus, Real, Historical

Carl Gustav Jung, Murray Stein (1999). “Jung on Christianity”, p.108, Princeton University Press

I am this bundle of what has been, and what has been accomplished.

Bundles, Accomplished, Has Beens

Carl Gustav Jung, Roderick Main (1997). “Jung on Synchronicity and the Paranormal”, Psychology Press

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.

Giving Up, Passion, Men

Psychiatrists classify a person as neurotic if he suffers from his problems in living, and a psychotic if he makes others suffer.

Suffering, Problem, Psychotic

Where do we live symbolically? Nowhere except where we participate in the ritual of life.

Ritual

Carl Gustav Jung (1976). “The Collected Works of C. G. Jung: Miscellaneous writings”

...The Western 'God-image' is a representation of the collective unconscious, an archetype of the psyche that undergoes a continual process of transformation...The God image evolves through its relationship to humanity. Whoever knows God has an effect on 'him'. For the individual, knowing God, is the process of recognizing and assimilating the pressured and paradoxical contents of the self, which come to consciousness- seek incarnation- within the ego.

Knowing, Self, Collective Unconscious
