Quote
1934·Zürich, Switzerland
Everyone carries a shadow, and the less it is embodied in the individual's conscious life, the blacker and denser it is.
One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious.
Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.
Adam Smith·1759The real tragedy of the poor is the poverty of their aspirations.
Luigi Cornaro·1558I was not aware that a father who is a glutton and a drunkard can beget moderate and virtuous children. Nor did I know, though I know it now, that the food which cannot be digested kills, while that which is digested sustains life.
Francis Bacon·1625He that hath wife and children hath given hostages to fortune; for they are impediments to great enterprises, either of virtue or mischief.
