It is by going down into the abyss that we recover the treasures of life. Where you stumble, there lies your treasure.
Joseph CampbellHow do you find the divine power in yourself? The word enthusiasm means 'filled with a god,' so what makes you enthusiastic? Follow it. So I have a little word: follow your bliss. The bliss is the message of God to yourself. That's where your life is.
Joseph CampbellThe inner world is the world of your requirements and your energies and your structure and your possibilities that meets the outer world. And the outer world is the field of your incarnation. Thatโs where you are. Youโve got to keep both going. As Novalis said, โThe seat of the soul is there where the inner and outer worlds meet.
Joseph Campbell
