Myths Quotes

Myths are stories about people who become too big for their lives temporarily, so that they crash into other lives or brush against gods. In crisis their souls are visible.
Anne Carson

I'd always felt repressed. We were all so pressurised that there was hardly any chance of expressing ourselves, especially working at that rate, touring continually and always kept in a cocoon of myths and dreams.
John Lennon
The Beatles

I'm always interested in debunking myths if they are untrue. But it's also important to identify myths and how they function, what value they may have.
Neal Ascherson
-
I believe that when the collective, as a whole, when people as a whole realize that we are everywhere, that we are your children and we are your mothers and fathers and brothers and sisters, that we have been with you and among you and we are you, we have been this whole time, that that’s the moment when the myths and the bullying and the inequality will end.

For the Platonic or Aristotelian philosophy, it is of no importance whether Plato or Aristotle ever lived. For the mystical practice of an Indian, Persian, Chinese, or Neo-Platonic mystic it is a matter of indifference whether Rama, Buddha, Laotse, or Porphyrius are myths or not. The mystic has no personal relation to them. It is not here a question of somebody telling me the truth which of myself I cannot find, but of my finding an access to the depths of the world in the depths of my soul.
Emil Brunner

Haruki Murakami
