Matter of Heart1986

Carl Gustav Jung:
The archetype is a force. It has an autonomy. It can certainly seize you. It is like a seizure. So, for instance, falling in love at first sight. That is such a case. You see, you have such a certain image in yourself, without knowing it, of the woman, of *the* woman. Now you see that girl. Or at least a good imitation of her type. And instantly, you get a seizure. And you're - you're gone. And afterwards, you may discover that it was a hell of a mistake.
