"Insight that dawns slowly seems to me..." - Quote by Carl Jung

“The sad truth is that man's real life consists of a complex of inexorable opposites - day and night, birth and death, happiness and misery, good and evil. We are not even sure that one will prevail against the other, that good will overcome evil, or joy defeat pain. Life is a battleground. It always has been and always will be; and if it were not so, existence would come to an end.”

“Free will is the ability to do gladly that which I must do.”

“Identification with one's office or title is very attractive indeed, which is precisely why so many men are nothing more than the decorum accorded to them by society. In vain would one look for a personality behind the husk. Underneath one would find a very pitiable little creature. That is why the office is so attractive: it offers easy compensation for personal deficiencies.”

“When most I wink, then do my eyes best see”

“Judge a man by his questions rather than his answers.”

“Though I was careful never to mention it, I began to see a new dimension in everything that happened.”

“It isn't the mountains ahead to climb that wear you out; it's the pebble in your shoe.”

“He will have to learn, I know, that all people are not just- that all men and women are not true. Teach him that for every scoundrel there is a hero that for every enemy there is a friend. Let him learn early that the bullies are the easiest people to lick.”

“No amount of energy will take the place of thought. A strenuous life with its eyes shut is a kind of wild insanity.”
