This is my first time hearing the phrase in sterquiliniis invenitur. I couldn’t find much about it besides it being attributed to Jung, its translation (it will be found in filth) and a Jordan Peterson talk. I didn’t care to watch the latter because although he does seem to engage in real academia sometimes I don’t find him reliable (go figure, I’m on Lemmy. I imagine there’s a small p-value for correlation between lemmings and not being a Peterson fan). Would love to hear more about what it means to you and how it inspired you, and more detail on what you wanted your phrase to convey.
I like this better than your original quote. As another commenter said, “fixing the devil” can be used as a justification for a victim to stay with their abuser.
Turning hell into heaven can be taken more positively. We’re all products of our environment, but I also think that with effort we can change our environment. But it sure as hell isn’t always easy.
or how about this: “if you walk through hell long enough you can turn it into heaven”
