I have never since entirely freed myself of the impression that this life is a segment of existence which is enacted in a three-dimensional boxlike universe especially set up for it.

One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious.

We should not pretend to understand the world only by the intellect. The judgement of the intellect is only part of the truth.

The psychic depths are nature, and nature is creative life.

Enlightenment doesnt occur from sitting around visualizing images of light, but from integrating the darker aspects of the Self into the conscious personality.

A particularly beautiful woman is a source of terror. As a rule, a beautiful woman is a terrible disappointment.

When you come to think about it, nothing has any meaning, for when there was nobody to think, there was nobody to interpret what happened.
