...anyone who attempts to do both, to adjust to his group and at the same time pursue his individual goal, becomes neurotic. Carl Jung
About a third of my cases are suffering from no clinically definable neurosis, but from the senselessness and emptiness of their lives. This can be defined as the general neurosis of our times. Carl Jung
