Primordial Wisdom

Famous quotes containing the words primordial and/or wisdom:

“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)

“Women always excel men in that sort of wisdom which comes from experience. To be a woman is in itself a terrible experience.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
