Quotes by Carl Jung
- Children are educated by what the grown-up is and not by his talk.

- The world will ask you who you are, and if you don’t know, the world will tell you.
- We cannot change anything until we accept it. Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses.
- We don’t so much solve our problems as we outgrow them. We add capacities and experiences that eventually make us bigger than the problems.

- Who looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside, awakens.
