Carl Jung Quotes
I cannot love anyone if I hate myself. That is the reason why we feel so extremely uncomfortable in the presence of people who are noted for their special virtuousness, for they radiate an atmosphere of the torture they inflict on themselves. That is not a virtue but a vice.
Jung, C. G. Modern Man in Search of a Soul. Translated by W. S. Dell and Cary F. Baynes, Harcourt, Brace and Company, 1933.
