All CARL JUNG Quotes about “Conflict”

“The artist's life cannot be otherwise than full of conflicts, for two forces are at war within him [or her]-on the one hand, the common human longing for happiness, satisfaction and security in life, and on the other a ruthless passion for creation which may go so far as to override every personal desire ... There are hardly any exceptions to the rule that a person must pay dearly for the divine gift of creative fire.”
“Where wisdom reigns, there is no conflict between thinking and feeling.”
“The most intense conflicts, if overcome, leave behind a sense of security and calm that is not easily disturbed. It is just these intense conflicts and their conflagration which are needed to produce valuable and lasting results.”
“Conflicts create the fire of affects and emotions; and like every fire it has two aspects: that of burning and that of giving light.”
“Self-reflection, or - what comes to the same thing - the urge to individuation, gathers together what is scattered and multifarious and exalts it to the original of the One, the Primordial Man. In this way our existence as separate beings, our former ego nature, is abolished, the circle of consciousness is widened, and because the paradoxes have been made conscious, the sources of conflict are dried up.”
“When an individual does not become conscious of their inner contradictions, the world acts out the conflict and is torn in opposite halves.”
“Conflict exists strictly as an opportunity to raise our consciousness.”
