Joseph Campbell Quotes

"The goal of life is rapture. Art is the way we experience it""The dark night of the soul comes just before revelation""Life is without meaning. We bring meaning to it""Computers are like Old Testament gods; lots of rules and no mercy""Life has no meaning. Each of us has meaning and we bring it""Participate joyfully in the sorrows of the world""We cannot cure the world of sorrows, but we can choose to live""Love is a friendship set to music""To find your own way is to follow your bliss""The agony of breaking through personal limitations is the agony of spiritual growth ""We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us ""A hero ventures forth from the world of common day into a region of supernatural wonder ""The myth is the public dream and the dream is the private myth""Everywhere, no matter what the sphere of activity, the means to become a leader is to have a focus of attention on some field of pure interest""The quest for fire occurred not because anyone knew what the practical uses for fire would be, but because it was fascinating""Your own path you make with every step""Find a place where there's joy, and the joy will burn out the pain""The key to a happy life is to learn to control the others""The world is a match for us and we are a match for the world""A bit of advice given to a young Native American at the time of his initiation: As you go the way of life, you will see a great chasm Jump It is not as wide as you think"
