Follow your bliss.
Joseph Campbell – [Dreams]
I don't have to have faith, I have experience.
Joseph Campbell – [Experience]
If you follow your bliss, doors will open for you that wouldn't have opened for anyone else.
Joseph Campbell – [Passion]
Myths are public dreams, dreams are private myths.
Joseph Campbell – [Myth]
People say that what we're all seeking is a meaning for life. I think that what we're really seeking is an experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonance within our innermost being and reality, so that we can actually feel the rapture of being alive.
Joseph Campbell – [Life and Living]
What each must seek in his life never was on land or sea. It is something out of his own unique potentiality for experience, something that never has been and never could have been experienced by anyone else.
Joseph Campbell – [Possibilities]
