                                   "The Child Motif represents the preconscious, childhood aspect of the collective psyche. The child motif represents not only something that existed in the distant past but also something that exists right now. It is not just a vestige, but a system functioning at the present whose purpose is to compensate or correct the one-sidedness of the conscious mind."

 

Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst
