The artist is not a person endowed with free will who seeks his own ends, but one who allows it to realize its supreme purpose through him.

Dreams are symbolic in order that they cannot be understood; in order that the wish, which is the source of the dream, may remain unknown.

Everyone can afford to give away a smile.

We know that the wildest and most moving dramas are played not in the theatre but in the hearts of ordinary men and women.

This whole creation is essentially subjective, and the dream is the theater where the dreamer is at once: scene, actor, prompter, stage manager, author, audience, and critic.

My mandalas were cryptograms concerning the state of the self which was presented to me anew each day...I guarded them like precious pearls....It became increasingly plain to me that the mandala is the center. It is the exponent of all paths. It is the path to the center, to individuation.

One finds one's destiny on the path one takes to avoid it.
