Joseph Campbell Quotes

«We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us.»
«Your life is the fruit of your own doing. You have no one to blame but yourself.»
«The adventure of the hero is the adventure of being alive»
«Marriage is not a love affair. A love affair is a totally different thing. A marriage is a commitment to that which you are. That person is literally your other half. And you and the other are one. A love affair isn?t that. That is a relationship of pleasure, and when it gets to be unpleasurable , it?s off. But a marriage is a life commitment, and a life commitment means the prime concern of your life. If marriage is not the prime concern, you are not married.»
«The way to find out about happiness is to keep your mind on those moments when you feel most happy, when you are really happy ? not excited, not just thrilled, but deeply happy. This requires a little bit of self-analysis. What is it that makes you happy? Stay with it, no matter what people tell you. This is what is called following your bliss.»
«Love is a friendship set to music.»
«Follow your bliss and the universe will open doors for you where there were only walls»
«The goal of life is to make your heartbeat match the beat of the universe, to match your nature with Nature.»
«It is by going down into the abyss that we recover the treasures of life. Where you stumble, there lies your treasure.»
«Find a place inside where there's joy, and the joy will burn out the pain.»
