A
On the Self and Individuation
"The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are."
– Emphasizing the lifelong process of self-discovery and individuation."Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate."
– Highlighting the power of the unconscious mind in shaping our experiences."Your vision will become clear only when you look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes."
– The journey of self-awareness comes from introspection rather than external validation.
On Shadow and the Unconscious
"Everyone carries a shadow, and the less it is embodied in the individual’s conscious life, the blacker and denser it is."
– Acknowledging the hidden, darker aspects of the psyche that need to be integrated."I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become."
– Stressing personal responsibility and the ability to shape one’s future.
On Symbols and the Collective Unconscious
"The psyche is not of today. Its ancestry goes back many millions of years."
– Referring to the collective unconscious, a shared reservoir of archetypes across humanity."Man cannot stand a meaningless life."
– Expressing the deep human need to find purpose and meaning.
On Relationships and the Human Experience
"The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed."
– Relationships have the power to change and shape us."Loneliness does not come from having no people around, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to you."
– True connection comes from meaningful communication, not just presence.
On Healing and Transformation
- "We cannot change anything until we accept it. Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses."
– Healing begins with acceptance rather than repression.
