Carl Jung on The Charioteer Within

Civilization in Transition (The Collected Works of C. G. Jung, Volume 10)

“Within each one of us there is another whom we do not know.

He speaks to us in dreams and tells us how differently he sees us from how we see ourselves.

When, therefore, we find ourselves in a difficult situation, to which there is no solution, he can sometimes kindle a light that radically alters our attitude, the very attitude that led us into the difficult situation.” (Carl Jung; from “Civilization in Transition”, 1958)
