Carl JungGreat talents are the most lovely and often the most dangerous fruits on the tree of humanity. They hang upon the most slender twigs that are easily snapped off.
Carl JungSomewhere, right at the bottom of oneโs own being, one generally does know where one should go and what one should do. But there are times when the clown we call โIโ behaves in such a distracting fashion that the inner voice cannot make its presence felt.
Carl JungSelf-reflection, or - what comes to the same thing - the urge to individuation, gathers together what is scattered and multifarious and exalts it to the original of the One, the Primordial Man. In this way our existence as separate beings, our former ego nature, is abolished, the circle of consciousness is widened, and because the paradoxes have been made conscious, the sources of conflict are dried up.
