Our life is composed greatly from dreams, from the unconscious, and they must be brought into connection with action. They must be woven together.
Every man who observes vigilantly, and resolves steadfastly, grows unconsciously into genius.
The definition of genius is that it acts unconsciously; and those who have produced immortal works, have done so without knowing how or why. The greatest power operates unseen.
No matter how close we are to another person, few human relationships are as free from strife, disagreement, and frustration as is the relationship you have with a good dog. Few human beings give of themselves to another as a dog gives of itself. I also suspect that we cherish dogs because their unblemished souls make us wish - consciously or unconsciously - that we were as innocent as they are, and make us yearn for a place where innocence is universal and where the meanness, the betrayals, and the cruelties of this world are unknown.
I'm just trying to make a smudge on the collective unconscious.
I think wholeness comes from living your life consciously during the day and then exploring your inner life or unconscious at night.
Every extension of knowledge arises from making the conscious the unconscious.
And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
I love to sleep. Do you? Isn't it great? It really is the best of both worlds. You get to be alive and unconscious.
