Knowledge Does Not Enrich Us; It Removes

We Carry Our Past With Us, To Wit, The Primitive And Inferior Man With His Desires And Emotions, And It Is Only With An Enormous Effort That We Can Detach Ourselves From This Burden. If It Comes To A Neurosis, We Invariably Have To Deal With A Considerably Intensified Shadow.

Conflict Exists Strictly As An Opportunity To Raise Our Consciousness.

The Greatest Potential For Growth And Self-realisation Exists In The Second Half Of Life.

A Man Who Has Not Passed Through The Inferno Of His Passions Has Never Overcome Them. As Far As We Can Discern, The Sole Purpose Of Human Existence Is To Kindle A Light In The Darkness Of Mere Being. Everything That Irritates Us About Others Can Lead Us To An Understanding Of Ourselves.

No Tree, It Is Said, Can Grow To Heaven Unless Its Roots Reach Down To Hell.
