Nothing is exciting if you know what the outcome is going to be.”

~ Joseph Campbell, 20th Century Philosopher & Mythology Expert

from A Joseph Campbell Companion: Reflections on the Art of Living

Follow your bliss. The heroic life is living the individual adventure.”

There is no security in following the call to adventure.”
