Servants of the serpent

Some quotes from Jung on the thinking and feeling functions. A note: for some reason (probably because he was constantly developing his theory) Jung sometimes refers to feeling types as "extraverts" and thinking types as "introverts":

Some have their reason in thinking, others in feeling. Both are servants of Logos, and in secret become worshipers of the serpent.

- Carl Jung, The Red Book, Page 280.

An introvert who does not outgrow his constant thinking is just as untenable as an extravert who cannot get out of his constant feeling.

- Carl Jung, Han Guisan Schmid, Pages 131-142

The extravert (the ideal type) must realize his feeling, the corresponding introvert his thinking. In this process, the extravert notices that his feeling is pregnant with thoughts; the introvert, that his thinking is full of feelings.

- Carl Jung, Han Guisan Schmid, Pages 131-142

The unpleasant power-complex of the female animus is encountered only when a woman does not allow her feeling to express itself naturally or handles it in an inferior way. But this, as said, can happen in all situations of life and has nothing whatever to do with the right to vote.

- Carl Jung, Letters Vol. II, Pages 477-478

Disappointment, always a shock to the feelings, is not only the mother of bitterness but the strongest possible incentive to a differentiation of feeling. The failure of a pet plan, the disappointing behaviour of someone one loves, can supply the impulse either for a more or less brutal outburst of affect or for a modification and adjustment of feeling, and hence for its higher development. This culminates in wisdom if feeling is supplemented by reflection and rational insight. Wisdom is never violent where wisdom reigns there is no conflict between thinking and feeling.

- Carl Jung, CW 14, Para 334

Only through submission to detestable duties does one gain a certain feeling of liberation which induces a creative mood.

- Carl Jung, Letters Vol. II, Pages 30-31

Just as nobody but the believer who surrenders himself wholly to God can partake of divine grace, so love reveals its highest mysteries and its wonder only to those who are capable of unqualified devotion and loyalty of feeling.

- Carl Jung, CW 10, Page 112
