Jung, Relations between the Ego and the Unconscious_ Collected Works Vol 7Par 214 "...there is no truly living thing that does not have a final meaning, that can in other words be explained as mere left-over from antecedent facts."
Jung, Relations between the Ego and the Unconscious_ Collected Works Vol 7
Par 212 "There is no a priori reason why it should not be just as possible that the unconscious tendencies have a goal beyond the human person, as that the unconscious can 'do nothing more but wish'. Experience alone can decide which is the more suitable hypothesis."
Jung, Relations between the Ego and the Unconscious_ Collected Works Vol 7
Par 217 "...change took place...through the unconscious development of a transpersonal control-point; a virtual goal,..that expressed itself symbolically in a form which can only be described as a vision of God...we have a primordial idea that can correspond only to an archaic mentality."
Jung, Relations between the Ego and the Unconscious_ Collected Works Vol 7
Par 219 "...archetype...primordial images...restored to life by the primitive, analogical mode of thinking peculiar to dreams...not inherited ideas, but..thought patterns."
"The analysis and conscious realization of unconscious contents engender a certain superior tolerance, thanks to which even relatively indigestible portions of one's unconscious characterology can be accepted." Jung, Relations between the Ego and the Unconscious_ Collected Works Vol 7 Par 224
" A man is a philosopher of genius only when he succeeds in transmuting the primitive and merely natural vision into an abstract idea belonging to the common stock of consciousness. This achievement, and this alone, constitutes his personal value, for which he may take credit without necessarily succumbing to inflation." Jung, Relations between the Ego and the Unconscious_ Collected Works Vol 7 Par 229
" The larger a community is, and the more the sum total of collective factors peculiar to every large community rests on the conservative prejudices detrimental to individuality, the more will the individual be morally and spiritually crushed, and, as a result, the one source of moral and spiritual progress for society is chocked up." Jung, Relations between the Ego and the Unconscious_ Collected Works Vol 7 Par 240
"It [the persona] is, as its name implies only a mask of the collective psyche, a mask that feigns individuality, making others, and oneself believe, that one is individual, whereas one is simply acting a role through which the collective psyche speaks...[par246]...it is a compromise between individual and society as to what a man should appear to be." Jung, Relations between the Ego and the Unconscious_ Collected Works Vol 7 Par 245
"...there is...something individual in the peculiar choice and delineation of the persona, and that despite the exclusive identity of the ego-consciousness with the persona and the unconscious self, one's real individuality, is always present and makes itself felt indirectly if not directly." Jung, Relations between the Ego and the Unconscious_ Collected Works Vol 7 Par 247
"...adaption to external reality demands so much work that inner adaption to the collective unconscious cannot be considered for a very long time. But when this inner adaption becomes a preamble a strange, irresistible attraction proceeds from the unconscious and exerts a powerful influence on the conscious direction of life. The predominance of the unconscious influences together with the associated disintegration of the persona and the deposition of the conscious mind from power, constitute a state of psychic disequilibrium." Jung, Relation between the Ego and the Unconscious_ Collected Works Vol 7 Par 252
" ...the more we become conscious of ourselves through self knowledge, and act accordingly, the more the layer of the personal unconscious that is superimposed on the collective unconscious will be diminished. In this way there arises a consciousness which is no longer imprisoned by the petty, over sensitive, personal world of the ego...This widened consciousness is no longer that touchy, egotistical bundle of personal wishes, fears, hopes and ambitions which always has to be compensated or corrected by unconscious counter-tendencies... Jung, Relation between the Ego and the Unconscious_ Collected Works Vol 7 Par 275
"Because the unconscious is not just a reactive mirror-reflection, but an independent, productive activity, its realm of experience is a self-contained world, having its own reality, of which we can only say that it affects us as we affect it precisely what we would say about tour experience of the outer world." Jung, Relation between the Ego and the Unconscious_ Collected Works Vol 7 Par 292
"[The unconscious is not] striving to realize certain deffinite ends...The driving force...seems to be in essence only on urge towards self-realization." Jung, Relation between the Ego and the Unconscious_ Collected Works Vol 7Par 291
"Because the unconscious is not just a reactive mirror reflection, but an independent, productive activity, its realm of experience is a self-contained world, having its own reality, of which we can only say that it affects us as ew affect it - precisely what we would say about our experience of the outer world." Jung, Relation between the Ego and the Unconscious_ Collected Works Vol 7 Par 292
"If...I take the line that the world is outside and inside, that reality falls to the share of both, I must logically accept the upsets and annoyances that come to me from inside as symptoms of faulty adaption to the conditions of that inner world." Jung, Relation between the Ego and the Unconscious_ Collected Works Vol 7 Par 319
"The psyche not being a unity but a contradictory multiplicity of complexes, the dissociation required for...dialects with the anima is not so terribly difficult." Jung, Relation between the Ego and the Unconscious_ Collected Works Vol 7 Par 323
"The processes of the collective Unconscious are concerned not only with the more or less personal relations of an individual to his family or to a wider social group, but with his relations to society and to the human community in general. The more general and impersonal the condition that releases the unconscious reaction, the more significant, bizarre, and overwhelming will be the compensatory manifestations. It impels not just private communication, but drives people to revelations and confessions, an even dramatic representations of their fantasies. Jung, Relation between the Ego and the Unconscious_ Collected Works Vol 7 Par 278
"People who go illegitimately mooning after the infinite often have absurdly banal dreams which endevour to damp down their ebullience" Jung, Relation between the Ego and the Unconscious_ Collected Works Vol 7 Par 288
"[the unconscious'] mentality is an instinctive one, it has no differentiated functions, and it does not "think" as we understand thinking. I t simply creates and image that answers to the conscious situation. This image contains as much thought as feeling, and is anything rather than a product of rationalistic reflection.Jung, Relation between the Ego and the Unconscious_ Collected Works Vol 7 Par 289
