Dorothy Norman quotes:

Myths of the heroes are cosmic creation myths in microcosm. They depict, in no matter how subtle variation, the eternal battle we wage to release the creative energies within ourselves and in the world.

Without Satan, no Christ.

Desire for gain and fear of loss burn like fire.

Myths of the heroes speak most eloquently of man's quest to choose life over death.

Is it not the artist who - like our dreams - dissolves the pretenses that hide us from ourselves, disclosing both our self-serving fantasies and our unsuspected potentialities?

To adopt the posture of the hero is the most unheroic of all acts.
