Famous quotes containing the words common, ground and/or collective:

    “The last Night that She lived
    It was a Common Night
    Except the Dying—this to Us
    Made Nature different”
    —Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    “Every act of the man inscribes itself in the memories of his fellows, and in his own manners and face. The air is full of sounds; the sky, of tokens; the ground is all memoranda and signatures; and every object covered over with hints, which speak to the intelligent.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Like Freud, Jung believes that the human mind contains archaic remnants, residues of the long history and evolution of mankind. In the unconscious, primordial “universally human images” lie dormant. Those primordial images are the most ancient, universal and “deep” thoughts of mankind. Since they embody feelings as much as thought, they are properly “thought feelings.” Where Freud postulates a mass psyche, Jung postulates a collective psyche.”
    —Patrick Mullahy (b. 1912)
