Transcending Thought
It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.
Quotes by Joseph Campbell
What we all seek
People say that what we’re all seeking is a meaning for life. I think what we’re really seeking is an experience of being alive, so our life experi-ences on the purely physical plane will have resonance within our inner-most being and reality, so we can actually feel the rapture of being alive.
Follow your bliss.

When you see the Earth from space, you don''t see any divisions of nation-states there. This may be the symbol of the new mythology to come; this is the country we will celebrate, and these are the people we are one with.
