Joseph Campbell
Confused about religion? Well, you should be. If you buy-into a man-made set of simple answers for the complex questions, don't bother finding out about Joseph. If you want to be enlightened, seek out his work (especially his interview by Bill Moyers, available on video and shown often on PBS TV stations). If you already know the truth... well then; there's no talking to you then, IS there?
The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are. -- Joseph Campbell Life is without meaning. You bring the meaning to it. The meaning of life is whatever you ascribe it to be. Being alive is the meaning. -- Joseph Campbell The warrior's approach is to say "yes" to life: "yea" to it all. -- Joseph Campbell Participate joyfully in the sorrows of the world. We cannot cure the world of sorrows, but we can choose to live in joy. -- Joseph Campbell When we talk about settling the world's problems, we're barking up the wrong tree. The world is perfect. It's a mess. It has always been a mess. We are not going to change it. Our job is to straighten out our own lives. -- Joseph Campbell We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us. -- Joseph Campbell
