Carl Jung Quotes
One could say, with a little exaggeration, that the persona is that which in reality one is not, but which oneself as well as others think one is.
Jung, C. G. The Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious. Translated by R.F.C. Hull, 2nd ed., Princeton University Press, 1969, p. 123.
Carl Gustav Jung, was a Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst who founded analytical psychology. Jung's work has been influential in the fields of psychiatry, anthropology, archaeology, literature, philosophy and religious studies. Jung worked as a research scientist at the famous Burghölzli hospital, under Eugen Bleuler. During this time, he came to the attention of Sigmund Freud, the founder of psychoanalysis. The two men conducted a lengthy correspondence and collaborated, for a while, on a joint vision of human psychology.
