More From Carl Jung

It has been said that there is no fool like an old fool, except a young fool. but the young fool has first to grow up to be an old fool to realize what a damn fool he was when he was a young fool.
Growing Up Fool Firsts
Once again you are wrong sir, darkness does not exist either. darkness is in reality the absence of light. light we can study, but not darkness. in fact we can use newton's prism to break white light into many colors and study the various wavelengths of each color. you cannot measure darkness. a simple ray of light can break into a world of darkness and illuminate it. how can you know how dark a certain space is? you measure the amount of light present. isn't this correct? darkness is a term used by man to describe what happens when there is no light present.
Dark Simple Reality
We ought not to believe those who today, adopting a philosophical air and with a tone of superiority, prophesy the decline of culter and are content with the unknowable in a self-satisfied way. for us there is no unknowable, and in my opinion there is also non whatsoever for the natural sciences. in place of this foolish unknowable, let our watchword on the contrary be: we must know - we shall know.

A fool, a fool! i met a fool i' th' forest, a motley fool! a miserable world! as i do live by food, i met a fool who laid him down and basked him in the sun and railed on lady fortune in good terms, in good set terms, and yet a motley fool.

Being blind is as simple as closing your eyes. the blind don't act any different than you or i. you never see a blind person going around saying, 'i'm blind.' so if you want to play blind just close your eyes and keep them closed and fare thee well.
Eye Simple Play
I cannot project the degree of hatred required to make those women run around in crusades against abortion. hatred is what they certainly project, not love for the embryos, which is a piece of nonsense no one could experience, but hatred, a virulent hatred for an unnamed object...their hatred is directed against human beings as such, against the mind, against reason, against ambition, against success, against love, against any value that brings happiness to human life. in compliance with the dishonesty that dominates today's intellectual field, they call themselves "pro-life".

If someone asks you to run the 100 yard dash as fast as you can, you'll run the 100 dash as fast as you think you can. but if you put someone along side you who runs a little faster, you are going to run faster - whoa - i better step it up a little bit. i do things even i didn't know i was capable of.

Twice in her life she had mistaken something else for it; it was like seeing somebody in the street who you think is a friend, you whistle and wave and run after him, and it is not only not the friend, but not even very like him. a few minutes later the real friend appears in view, and then you can't imagine how you ever mistook that other person for him. linda was now looking upon the authentic face of love, and she knew it, but it frightened her. that it should come so casually, so much by a series of accidents, was frightening.
Running Real Thinking
We all run on two clocks. one is the outside clock, which ticks away our decades and brings us ceaselessly to the dry season. the other is the inside clock, where you are your own timekeeper and determine your own chronology, your own internal weather and your own rate of living. sometimes the inner clock runs itself out long before the outer one, and you see a dead man going through the motions of living.

All the sciences have a relation, greater or less, to human nature; and...however wide any of them may seem to run from it, they still return back by one passage or another. even mathematics, natural philosophy, and natural religion, are in some measure dependent on the science of man; since they lie under the cognizance of men, and are judged of by their powers and faculties.
