Antero Alli Quotes
Myths are like dreams in that without them, we’re as good as dead. However…dreams can be dangerous. Anybody living with one they are unable to manifest, articulate and/or share has, perhaps, already begun losing their handle. In the face of unknowns, I appreciate handles. They let me float in the abyss, knowing there is a grip to return to somewhere. Occasionally, I feel the only real handle there is, is my physical body. It’s a relief to release that grip on occasion—to collapse, drop my big act and “die.”
