“Language is originally and essentially nothing but a system of signs or symbols, which denote real occurrences, or their echo in the human soul.”
Psychology of the Unconscious • Carl Gustav Jung“„It is not our purpose to become each other; it is to recognize each other, to learn to see the other and honor him for what he is: each the other's opposite and complement.“”
Narcissus and Goldmund • Hermann Hesse“One's emotional state is always determined by the oddest and most accidental things, and it is precisely the most superficial factors that often fortify or diminish our courage.”
Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig“Oh, I know it today: nothing in the world is more repugnant to a man than following the path that leads him to himself!”
Demian • Hermann Hesse“When does the soul obtain truth?—for in attempting to consider anything in company with the body she is obviously deceived. ...Then must not existence be revealed to her in thought, if at all? ...And thought is best when the mind is gathered into herself and none of these things trouble her—neither sounds nor sights nor pain nor any pleasure—when she has as little as possible to do with the body, and has no bodily sense or feeling, but is aspiring after being? ...And in this the philosopher dishonors the body; his soul runs away from the body and desires to be alone and by herself?”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato
