“Not only is myth, myth, not only is the opposition to myth, myth, but the recognition of the opposition to myth as myth is itself, myth.”
Jason Ānanda Josephson Storm, The Myth of Disenchantment: Magic, Modernity, and the Birth of the Human Sciences

“Flourishing is a process, not a product. Happiness is impossible to attain as a fixed state. Indeed, it has been argued that flourishing is incompatible with stasis or even being only one thing.89 Flourishing is rather the ability to change or to become something else.”

We need to not just identify patterns, but explain why they hold. Yet we have historically been missing the right account of the basic structuring entities addressed by our scholarship.”
