Dunkelheit ist ein Mangel an Licht, so wie die Sünde ein Mangel an Liebe ist.
Sie hat keine speziellen, ihr eigenen Qualitäten. Sie ist ein Beispiel
für den Glauben an »Mangel«, aus dem nur Irrtum hervorgehen kann.
Ein Kurs in Wundern, Text S. 11 (T.1.IV.3)

1.2 Zitate (engl.) allgemein
And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. Ephesians 5, 11 (NT)
- The great problem of our time is that we don’t understand what is happening to the world. We are confronted with the darkness of our soul, the unconscious. Carl Gustav Jung, Letters, vol. 2, pg. 590
- Nobody is immune to a nationwide evil unless he is unshakably convinced of the danger of his own character being tainted by the same evil. Carl Gustav Jung, The Symbolic Life, Collected Works 18, par. 1400
- The daemonic is […] any natural function which has the power to take over the whole person [or whole nation] […] the daemonic can be either creative or destructive [i.e, demonic] […] violence is the daemonic gone awry. Rollo May, psychologist
- Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Hate multiplies hate, violence multiplies violence, and toughness multiplies toughness in a descending spiral of destruction. [...] The chain reaction of evil – hate begetting hate, wars producing more wars – must be broken, or we shall be plunged into the dark abyss of annihilation. Martin Luther King jr.
- Nonviolence means avoiding not only external physical violence but also internal violence of spirit. You not only refuse to shoot a man, but you refuse to hate him. Martin Luther King jr.
- Jacob was wrestling with the angel in the first place because he would have been killed otherwise. The more powerful archetypal forces that wound us and become activated in us through our wounding literally challenge us to the core of our being to connect with, become intimately acquainted with, and step into more empowered aspects of ourselves, or else. Talking about his own personal experience of living out this deeper, archetypal pattern, Jung said "I would wrestle with the dark angel until he dislocated my hip. For he is also the light and the blue sky which he withholds from me." The dark angel who wounds us is at the same time the Luciferian agent who is the bringer of the light. There is a secret tie between the powers that wound us by seemingly obstructing our true nature and the very true nature that they appear to be obstructing. Paul Levy, artist, author, The wounded healer Part 1, 2007
- In the myth, the angel then changes Jacob's name to "Israel," "he who has wrestled with God," which symbolizes that Jacob's identity has been changed in the process of his encounter with the numinosum. Our wounding is a "numinous" event, in that its source is transpersonal and archetypal, which is to say that our wound is the very way by which the divine is making contact with us. The origin of both our wounding AND the healing that precipitates out of our wound comes from beyond ourselves, as it is beyond our own personal contrivance. Our wounding activates a deeper, transpersonal process of potential healing and illumination that we could not have initiated by ourselves. Paul Levy, artist, author, The wounded healer Part 1, 2007
- Suffering is archetypal and collective, it can be taken as a sign that [we are] no longer suffering from [ourselves], but rather from the spirit of the age. [We suffer from an] ... impersonal cause, from [our] collective unconscious which [we have] in common with all [humanity]. [words in brackets have been changed from singular, masculine to gender neutral]. Carl Gustav Jung, cited by Paul Levy, artist, author, The wounded healer Part 1, 2007
- We should not try to 'get rid' of a neurosis, but rather to experience what it means, what it has to teach, what its purpose is. We should even learn to be thankful for it, otherwise we pass it by and miss the opportunity of getting to know ourselves as we really are. A neurosis is truly removed only when it has removed the false attitude of the ego. We do not cure it – it cures us. A man is ill, but the illness is nature's attempt to heal him. From the illness itself we can learn so much for our recovery, and what the neurotic flings away as absolutely worthless contains the true gold we should never have found elsewhere. Carl Gustav Jung
- The ancient Romans built their greatest masterpieces of architecture, for wild beasts to fight in. Voltaire
- It's not accidental that our gravest social ills, ranging from drugs and alcoholism to crime and child abuse, arise from diseases of the spirit, damaged self-esteem, and lack of mutual respect. There is no way we can resolve these problems without making the leap into acknowledging our spiritual illnesses and dealing first with them. Tom Bender, visionary thinker of the sustainability movement
- While nothing is easier than to denounce the evildoer, nothing is more difficult than to understand him. Fyodor Dostoevsky (1821-1881), Russian novelist
