Three insightful/interesting quotes:
"Ultimate success is rewarded with the treasure hard to attain - as often as not the throne of a kingdom or a beautiful princess as a bride" (Stevens 51)."As a species we are predisposed to form bonds of attachment to crucial figures in our lives" (Stevens 48).
"...Our need to discover meanings, to know the nature of things, to explain origins, has given rise to the universal production of cosmologies with their symbols of chaotic waters, primordial animals, sky gods, earth mothers, cosmic trees, titans, original men and women, and so on" (Stevens 43).
One confusing quote:
Quoted from Joesph Cambell (1990) in Adriadne's Clue "A myth is a public dream, a dream is a private myth" (Stevens 41).better late than never?
