Moj život je ono što sam učinio, moje znanstveno djelo; jedno je nerazdvojivo od drugoga. Moje djelo je izraz moga unutarnjeg razvoja, jer posvećivanje sadržajima nesvjesnog oblikuje čovjeka i dovodi do njegovih preobrazbi. Moja se djela mogu smatrati postajama na životnom putu.
C.G. JungHow can I be substantial if I do not cast a shadow? I must have a dark side also If I am to be whole.

Our mania for rational explanations obviously has its roots in our fear of metaphysics, for the two were always hostile brothers. Hence, anything unexpected that approaches us from the dark realm is regarded either as coming from outside and, therefore, as real, or else as a hallucination and, therefore, not true. The idea that anything could be real or true which does not come from outside has hardly begun to dawn on contemporary man.
C.G. JungThe change of character brought about by the uprush of collective forces is amazing. A gentle and reasonable being can be transformed into a maniac or a savage beast. One is always inclined to lay the blame on external circumstances, but nothing could explode in us if it had not been there. As a matter of fact, we are constantly living on the edge of a volcano, and there is, so far as we know, no way of protecting ourselves from a possible outburst that will destroy everybody within reach. It is certainly a good thing to preach reason and common sense, but what if you have a lunatic asylum for an audience or a crowd in a collective frenzy? There is not much difference between them because the madman and the mob are both moved by impersonal, overwhelming forces.
C.G. JungIntuition does not denote something contrary to reason, but something outside of the province of reason.
C.G. JungWhen you are up against a wall, put down roots like a tree, until clarity comes from deeper sources to see over that wall and grow.

Gdy umarła, jej krewni powiedzieli mi, że w ostatnich miesiącach jej życia charakter jakby od niej odpadał kawałek po kawałku, aż w końcu dziewczyna powróciła do stanu dwuletniego dziecka i tak zapadła w swój ostatni sen.
C.G. JungPopadłbym w znany błąd autobiografów, który polega na tym, że albo snują iluzje, jak to być powinno, albo kreślą jakąś apologia pro vita sua. A przecież człowiek jest zdarzeniem, nie może ocenić samego siebie, lecz raczej - for better or worse - podlega osądowi innych.
C.G. JungCG Jung:Thoughts grow in me like a forest, populated by many different animals. But man is domineering in his thinking, and therefore he kills the pleasure of the forest and that of the wild animals. Man is violent in his desire, and he himself becomes a darker forest and a sickened forest animal. Just as I have freedom in the world, I also have freedom in my thoughts. Freedom is conditional.

For the alchemist the one primarily in need of redemption is not man, but the deity who is lost and sleeping in matter. Only as a secondary consideration does he hope that some benefit may accrue to himself from the transformed substance as the panacea, the medicina catholica, just as it may to the imperfect bodies, the base or "sick" metals, etc. His attention is not directed to his own salvation through God's grace, but to the liberation of God from the darkness of matter.
