If there were already a path, it would have to be someone else's; the whole point is to find your own way.
Joseph CampbellThere are now no more horizons. And with the dissolution of horizons we have experienced and are experiencing collisions, terrific collisions, not only of peoples but also of their mythologies. It is as when dividing panels are withdrawn from between chambers of very hot and very cold airs: there is a rush of these forces together.
Joseph CampbellThere is perhaps nothing worse than reaching the top of the ladder and discovering that you’re on the wrong wall.
Joseph CampbellEternity isn't some later time. Eternity isn't a long time. Eternity has nothing to do with time. Eternity is that dimension of here and now which thinking and time cuts out. This is it. And if you don't get it here, you won't get it anywhere. And the experience of eternity right here and now is the function of life.
Joseph Campbell
