Living Being Quotes (3 quotes)
Every living thing is a sort of imperialist, seeking to transform as much as possible of its environment into itself and its seed. When we compare the (present) human population of the globe with… that of former times, we see that “chemical imperialism” has been… the main end to which human intelligence has been devoted.
In 'Man and his Environment', An Outline of Philosophy (1927), 27.
Nature is the objective creditor of every living being.
In On Love & Psychological Exercises: With Some Aphorisms & Other Essays (1998), 57.

Carl Gustav Jung - 195

In science it often happens that scientists say, 'You know that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken,' and then they would actually change their minds and you never hear that old view from them again. They really do it. It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists are human and change is sometimes painful. But it happens every day. I cannot recall the last time something like that happened in politics or religion.
(1987) --
Carl Sagan
