Althought I find it hard to believe the personality of man could so easily be classified, perhaps within a certain demographic (specifically the Westerner; Jung himself being a German and thus of the West) these traits could be analyzed using static questions. Hesse, to me, was a man who could, more than anything else, achieve a profound level of writing, in the sense that he could convey his ideas into words much better than the average writer. He captured everyday life and everyday feelings in the most glorious, horrific, graceful and stunning ways. His "Glass Bead Game" was, by far, the best book I have ever read. I am an INTP. I am disturbed by this. I am told, by a Dr. Kiersey, that INTPs are interested in the structure and spatial aspects of life. I wish I cared not for such things as space and time, but rather for the significance of life on the purest levels, as Huxley speaks of in his "Doors of Perception" and "Heaven and Hell." Oh well
