"Criticism can be effective when there is..." - Quote by Carl Jung

“Dawn is born at midnight.”

“Whenever there is a reaching down into innermost experience, into the nucleus of personality, most people are overcome by fear and many run away. . . The risk of inner experience, the adventure of the spirit, is in any case alien to most human beings. The possibility that such experience might have psychic reality is anathema to them.”

“Sometimes a tree tells you more than can be read in books.”

“To announce that there must be no criticism of the president... is morally treasonable to the American public.”

“In literary and art criticism there are two criteria, the political and the artistic.”

“This idea of art for art's sake is a hoax.”

“For one that comes with a pencil to sketch or sing, a thousand come with an axe or rifle. What a coarse and imperfect use Indiansand hunters make of nature! No wonder that their race is so soon exterminated.”

“O Time! consumer of all things; O envious age! thou dost destroy all things and devour all things with the relentless teeth of years, little by little in a slow death. Helen, when she looked in her mirror, seeing the withered wrinkles made in her face by old age, wept and wondered why she had twice been carried away.”

“There is more than one way to burn a book.”
