Quotes by Carl Jung:

• Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.

• Our unconscious mind, like our body, is a storehouse of relics and memories of the past.

• The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are.

• You are what you do, not what you say you’ll do.

•  

• I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become.

• ​We cannot change anything unless we accept it.

• Your perception will become clear only when you can look into your soul.

• Your visions will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.

• Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.

• Loneliness does not come from having no people around you, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to you.
