“爬蟲腦在意愉悅感。但愉悅過後,我們感受到的常常是空虛,而不是滿足。大吃大喝、瘋狂購物、追劇打Game(遊戲),雖然帶來許多感官上的狂喜,但來得快,去得也快。靈長腦在意的滿足感,有著與愉悅感完全不同的屬性。”
蘇益賢, 練習不快樂?!不快樂是一種本能,快樂是一種選擇

“When excessive kindness is expressed externally, the cruelty of which all humans are capable sinks down into the internal world. Cruelty eventually develops beyond the control of the ego and gains autonomy. In ordinary circumstances, the ego maintains a balance between kindness and cruelty: kindness – ego – cruelty. But superhuman kindness, like an angel, cannot be controlled by the ego. Some cue gets triggered, and it flips over. In the case of “The Black Cat,” the trigger was alcohol.”
Iwao Akita, A Japanese Jungian Perspective on Mental Health and Culture: Wandering madness

“when we imagine that we “know” someone, we have closed off the space to continue to be curious about that person’s infinite depths,”
Barbara Stevens Sullivan, The Mystery of Analytical Work: Weavings from Jung and Bion

Robert A. Johnson
“Feeling is the ability to value: mood is being overtaken or possessed by the inner feminine. To feel is the sublime art of having a value structure and a sense of meaning—where one belongs, where one’s allegiance is, where one’s roots are. To mood (we are already in difficulty since there is no adequate term for being caught up in a mood) is to be in the grips of the feminine part of our nature, to be overwhelmed by an irrational element that plays havoc with a man’s outer life. The feminine side of a man is to connect him within the depths of his inner being and to make a bridge to his deepest self.”
Robert A. Johnson, He: Understanding Masculine Psychology

“Instead of using the term God you say “unconscious,” instead of Christ “[Self/]self,” instead of incarnation “integration of the unconscious,” instead of salvation or redemption “individuation,” instead of crucifixion or sacrifice on the Cross “realization of … ‘wholeness’”.”
Barbara Stevens Sullivan, The Mystery of Analytical Work: Weavings from Jung and Bion
