From the age of 10 years I wanted to become a doctor. During my last years at school in Zurich, in the early 1940s, I discovered the works of Carl Gustav Jung, Sigmund Freud and Alfred Adler and later also of Leopold Szondi. In class I presented a Jungian interpretation of the protagonists of Hermann Hesses Narziss und Goldmund as prototypes of introverted and extraverted personalities. I knew that Hesse had been treated by a Jungian analyst in Lucerne.
