The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are. - Joseph Campbell

"We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us."

"Myth is much more important and true than history. History is just journalism and you know how reliable that is."

"Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble."

"Myth is what we call other people's religion."

"A hero is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself."
