Lewis Carroll
“Alice asked the Cheshire Cat, who was sitting in a tree, “What road do I take?”

The cat asked, “Where do you want to go?”

Joseph Campbell
“Heaven and hell are within us, and all the gods are within us. This is the great realization of the Upanishads of India in the ninth Century B.C. All the gods, all the heavens, all the world, are within us. They are magnified dreams, and dreams are manifestations in image form of the energies of the body in conflict with each other.

This organ wants this, that organ wants that. The brain is one of the organs.”
Joseph Campbell, The Power of Myth

Toni Morrison
“We die. That may be the meaning of life. But we do language. That may be the measure of our lives.”
Toni Morrison
