All CARL JUNG Quotes about “Children”

“One looks back with appreciation to the brilliant teachers, but with gratitude to those who touched our human feelings. The curriculum is so much necessary raw material, but warmth is the vital element for the growing plant and for the soul of the child.”
“Children are educated by what the grown-up is and not by his talk.”
“Nothing has a stronger influence psychologically on their environment and especially on their children than the unlived life of the parent.”
“Nothing affects the life of a child so much as the unlived life of its parent”
“What did you do as a child that made that hours pass like minutes? [Herein lies the key to your earthy pursuits.]”
“In every adult there lurks a childâ€” an eternal child, something that is always becoming, is never completed, and calls for unceasing care, attention, and education. That is the part of the personality which wants to develop and become whole.”
“What usually has the strongest psychic effect on the child is the life which the parents have not lived”
“Warmth is the vital element for the growing plant and for the soul of the child.”
“Man's unconscious... contains all the patterns of life and behaviour inherited from his ancestors, so that every human child, prior to consciousness, is possessed of a potential system of adapted psychic functioning.”
“The sight of a childâ€¦will arouse certain longings in adult, civilized persons â€” longings which relate to the unfulfilled desires and needs of those parts of the personality which have been blotted out of the total picture in favor of the adapted persona.”
“We can keep from a child all knowledge of earlier myths, but we cannot take from him the need for mythology.”
“The continuing, direct operation of the Holy Ghost on those who are called to be God's children implies, in fact, a broadening process of incarnation. Christ, the son begotten by God, is the first-born who is succeeded by an ever-increasing number of younger brothers and sisters. There are, however, neither begotten by the Holy Ghost nor born of a virgin. . . . Their lowly origin (possibly from the mammals) does not prevent them from entering into a close kinship with God as their father and Christ as their brother.”
“Our whole educational problem suffers from a one-sided approach to the child who is to be educated, and from an equally one-sided lack of emphasis on the uneducatedness of the educator.”
