Man is the mirror God holds up to himself, the sense organ with which he apprehends his being.
Carl JungSomeone who is brave enough to withdraw all his projections, [is] an individual who is conscious of a pretty thick shadow.
Carl JungThe woman is increasingly aware that love alone can give her full stature, just as the man begins to discern that spirit alone can endow his life with its highest meaning. Fundamentally, therefore, both seek a psychic relation to the other, because love needs the spirit, and the spirit love, for their fulfillment.
Carl Jung
