“A myth is a religion in which no one any longer believes.”

“For it is the fate of every myth to creep by degrees into the narrow limits of some alleged historical reality, and to be treated by some later generation as a unique fact with historical claims...this is the way in which religions are wont to die out: under the stern, intelligent eyes of an orthodox dogmatism, the mythical premises of a religion are systematized as a sum total of historical events; one begins apprehensively to defend the credibility of the myths, while at the same time one opposes any continuation of their vitality and growth; the feeling for myth perishes, and its place is taken by the claim of religion to historical foundations.”

“There is no one religion, no one truth and no myth lacks meaning”

“Anachron’s Law:There is no myth which is so irrational that no one will believe it.Anachron’s Corollary:There is no truth which is so obvious that everyone will accept it.”

“Poetry aside, a religion is really a moral code that is expressed through legends, myths, or any type of literary device in order to establish a system of beliefs, values, and rules with which to regulate a culture or a society.”

“All men have a legend because of death. Humanity wasn't legendary any longer: it was a myth.”
