Each individual has his own ethical level and form of reaction.

There are, for example, thick-skinned people who can afford a lot of what we would call sins.

Other people cannot afford anything; as soon as they sidestep a bit from their own inner law, they get the most awful dreams and inner reactions […]

People in analysis sometimes do the most incredible things, and you think that now it is possible to catch them on their shadow.

But naturally, as an analyst, one has to wait until they themselves have a dream.

Then they have no dream! The unconscious has pardoned them. ~Marie-Louise von Franz, Shadow in Fairy Tales, Page 144
