“I believe in the power of love, and planting positive thought seeds into the collective consciousness.”— Jay Woodman
“A group experience takes place on a lower level of consciousness than the experience of an individual. This is due to the fact that, when many people gather together to share one common emotion, the total psyche emerging from the group is below the level of the individual psyche. If it is a very large group, the collective psyche will be more like the psyche of an animal, which is the reason why the ethical attitude of large organizations is always doubtful. The psychology of a large crowd inevitably sinks to the level of mob psychology. If, therefore, I have a so-called collective experience as a member of a group, it takes place on a lower level of consciousness than if I had the experience by myself alone.”— C.G. Jung
“The invisible fuel for this healing process is our heartfelt compassion and loving presence and the sincerity of the collective intention that we bring to it.”— William Keepin

It is difficult for people to imagine the freedom and energy that would be released if our society were to seriously embrace this task of collective gender healing in community.”— William Keepin
“The imagination is the goal of history. I see culture as an effort to literally realize our collective dreams.”— Terence McKenna
“It wasn’t science and technology that cause a slow progress, but collective knowledge of the society and market demands.”— Toba Beta
