Quotes from the souls code. by James Hillman

Coming into this particular body, and born to these particular parents, and in such a place
in general, what we call external circumstances, That all happenings form a unity, and are spun together
is signified by the Fates,      Plontinus.

Moira?  The finished shape of our fate, the line drawn round it, It is the task the Gods
allot to us, and the share of glory they allow; the limits we must not pass;
and our appointed end. Moira is all these.      Mary Renault.

In the final analysis, we count for something only because of the essential
we embody .and if we do not embody that, life is wasted.     Carl Gustav Jung.

I do not develop; I am.        Pablo Picasso.

You can argue with the proposition that all we are is genes and environment.
You can insist that there is something more. If you try to visualize the form
this something would take, or articulate it clearly, you will find the task impossible,
for any force that is not in the genes, or the environment is outside of physical
reality, as we perceive it, It is beyond scientific discourse. This does not mean it does not exist.
                           Robert Wright.

Scientists have been unable to discover many profound principles that relate the action
of mothers and fathers, or siblings to psychological characteristics in the child.
                           Jerome Kagan.

Because they have so little, children must rely on imagination rather than experience.
                          Eleanor Roosevelt.

Adolescents sense a secret unique greatness in themselves that seeks expression,
They gesture towards the heart when trying to express any of this,
a significant clue to the whole affair.             Joseph Chilton Pearce.
