Joseph Campbell Quotes

Nor Does It Matter From The Standpoint Of A Comparative Study Of Symbolic Forms Whether Christ Or The Buddha Ever Actually Lived And Performed The Miracles Associated With Their Teachings. The Religious Literatures Of The World Abound In Counterparts Of Those Two Great Lives. And What One May Learn From Them All, Finally, Is That The Savior, The Hero, The Redeemed One, Is The One Who Has Learned To Penetrate The Protective Wall Of Those Fears Within, Which Exclude The Rest Of Us, Generally, In Our Daylight And Even Our Dreamnight Thoughts, From All Experience Of Our Own And The World's Divine Ground. The Mythologized Biographies Of Such Saviors Communicate The Messages Of Their World-transcending Wisdom In World-transcending Symbols - Which, Ironically, Are Then Generally Translated Back Into Such Verbalized Thoughts As Built The Interior Walls In The First Place.
