Jung's view of knowledge

"As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light of meaning in the darkness of mere being."

"Science is the tool of the Western mind and with it more doors can be opened than with bare hands. It is part and parcel of our knowledge and obscures our insight only when it holds that the understanding given by it is the only kind there is."

"We should not pretend to understand the world only by the intellect; we apprehend it just as much by feeling. Therefore, the judgment of the intellect is, at best, only the half of truth, as must, if it be honest, also come to an understanding of its inadequacy."
