November 28th, 2008 Leave a comment Go to comments

Carl Gustav Jung was 84 when he was interviewed by John Freeman for the BBC program Face to Face, in October 1959. At the time, he was recognized as the world’s greatest living psychologist, founder of analytical psychology, originator of the concept of the collective unconscious.

FREEMAN Do you now believe in God?

JUNG Now? Difficult to answer. I know. I don’t need to believe. I know.

At the very end of the interview, Jung said, “Man cannot stand a meaningless life”.
