The gigantic catastrophes that threaten us today are not elemental happenings of a physical or biological order, but psychic events. To a quite terrifying degree we are threatened by wars and revolutions which are nothing other than psychic epidemics. At any moment several million human beings may be smitten with a new madness, and then we shall have another world war or devastating revolution. Instead of being at the mercy of wild beasts, earthquakes, landslides, and inundations, modern man is battered by the elemental forces of his own psyche.

Carl Jung
War, Men, Epidemics

The artist's life cannot be otherwise than full of conflicts, for two forces are at war within him [or her]-on the one hand, the common human longing for happiness, satisfaction and security in life, and on the other a ruthless passion for creation which may go so far as to override every personal desire ... There are hardly any exceptions to the rule that a person must pay dearly for the divine gift of creative fire.

Carl Jung
War, Passion, Artist

Neurosis is an inner cleavage-the state of being at war with oneself.

Carl Jung
War, Neurosis, Mental Illness
Carl Gustav Jung, Herbert Read, Michael Scott Montague Fordham, Gerhard Adler (1969). “The Collected Works of C. G. Jung: Psychology and religion, West and East”
