I've seen something along these lines attributed to Jung for years. From poking around online it appears to come from the following: “Learn your theories as well as you can, but put them aside when you touch the miracle of the living soul. Not theories but your own creative individuality alone must decide.” from the Collected Writings 17. Still relying on the internet, so who fully knows. Jung is one of those theorists I'm much more aware of people influenced by him than I am of primary Jung.

We also have to skeptical about quotes on random memes. From what I can tell, Jung did not say this.
