„La imagen interior del hombre no debe confundirse con su atuendo.“
— Joseph Campbell
The Hero With a Thousand Faces
„But in the dream the forms are quirked by the peculiar troubles of the dreamer, whereas in myth the problem and solutions shown are directly valid for all mankind.“
— Joseph Campbell, libro The Hero with a Thousand Faces
The Hero with a Thousand Faces (1949), Context: Dream is personalized myth, myth is depersonalized dream; both myth and dream are symbolic in the same general way of the dynamics of the psyche. But in the dream the forms are quirked by the peculiar troubles of the dreamer, whereas in myth the problem and solutions shown are directly valid for all mankind.

„The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are.“

„The passage of the mythological hero“
— Joseph Campbell, libro The Hero with a Thousand Faces
The Hero with a Thousand Faces (1949), Context: The passage of the mythological hero may be overground, incidentally; fundamentally it is inward—into depths where obscure resistances are overcome, and long lost, forgotten powers are revivified, to be made available for the transfiguration of the world.... Something of the light that blazes invisible within the abysses of its normally opaque materiality breaks forth, with an increasing uproar. The dreadful mutilations are then seen as shadows, only, of an immanent, imperishable eternity; time yields to glory; and the world sings with the prodigious, angelic, but perhaps finally monotonous, siren music of the spheres. Like happy families, the myths and the worlds redeemed are all alike.
Chapter 2
„You become mature when you become the authority of your own life.“
