Mythology Philosophy Quotes

“She suggested that...I should examine what I had been trying to shoot at and punch and kill for so long- whether or not I had, perhaps, denied some more gentle part of my nature, and if so, what had it cost me. "And don't get a tattoo for your forehead," she said, smiling. "It's entirely unnecessary." As proof, she held her hands in front of her. Wiggled her fingers and smiled. Our being human made us tragic and comic both, she has said; the gods both laughed and wept.”

“Myths & Comics (The Sonnet) Some modern superheroes are green in color, Some ancient superheroes are blue in color. Some worship hulk, ironman, captain marvel, Some are fanatics of Zeus, Poseidon, Krishna. Mythologies are but comics of the old days, Just like comics are nothing but modern myths. Fiction is okay in its place, but trouble begins, When life is belittled and fiction is worshiped. Inspiration can come from anywhere, real or not, But all is useless, if it produces mindless savages. Even I've written fiction to explore some situations, Though based on reality, some of it is highly exaggerated. If it brings you back to life, only then it's worth it. Fiction is supposed to enhance reality, not enslave it.”

“Например последният епизод. Кандидатът бе висок мъж с побелели коси. Професор по история, с благородна осанка и стилно облечен. И емблемата бе много красива, нещо като рицарски герб: череп на бик в мрежа върху фон на райета. Той каза, че лабиринтът символизира мозъка. Отвореният мозък и класическият лабиринт много си приличат. Минотавъра е животинската част на ума, а Тезей — човешката. Животинската част, разбира се, е по-силна, но в края на краищата побеждава човешката и в това е смисълът на еволюцията и историята. В самия център на лабиринта е разположен кръст, който символизира пресечната точка на животинското и човешкото начало. Именно там се намира проходът на посвещението, където Тезей среща и побеждава врага си. Единствено в себе си можеш да победиш Минотавъра, каза той. Ние сме длъжни безжалостно да удушим гадината и тогава с пълно морално право можем да преименуваме Шлема на ужаса в Шлем на цивилизацията и прогреса.”

“Myths are different than fairy tales or legends. Legends are stories based in history and are more or less true. Myths, on the other hand, are stories containing a deeper truth—stories that transcend time. If you were to travel the world, you would find myths that are remarkably similar to one another—stories of heroes fighting the darkness with the light.”
