“Therefore, even the lover of myth is a philosopher; for myth is composed of wonder.”

“Because philosophy arises from awe, a philosopher is bound in his way to be a lover of myths and poetic fables. Poets and philosophers are alike in being big with wonder.”

“I don't know about you, the world is here to be mythologized. It has, therefore, no other end. Transforming into myth, to be a myth! That's what we call eternity.”

“For what are myths if not the imposing of order on phenomena that do not possess order in themselves? And all myths, however they differ from philosophical systems and scientific theories, share this with them, that they negate the principle of randomness in the world.”

“I have the deepest respect even for Pagan myths, still more for the myths in Holy Scripture.”

“Every myth is psychologically symbolic. Its narratives and images are to be read, therefore, not literally, but as metaphors.”
