Karen Armstrong
“there is no ascent to the heights without prior descent into darkness, no new life without some form of death.”
Karen Armstrong, A Short History of Myth

Jim Gaffigan
“I love sleep. I need sleep. We all do, of course. There are those people that don't need sleep. I think they're called 'successful.”
Jim Gaffigan, Dad Is Fat

Karen Armstrong
“We are meaning-seeking creatures. Dogs, as far as we know, do not agonise about the canine condition, worry about the plight of dogs in other parts of the world, or try to see their lives from a different perspective. But human beings fall easily into despair, and from the very beginning we invented stories that enabled us to place our lives in a larger setting, that revealed an underlying pattern, and gave us a sense that, against all the depressing and chaotic evidence to the contrary, life had meaning and value”
Karen Armstrong, A Short History of Myth

Patti Smith
“No one expected me. Everything awaited me.”
Patti Smith, Just Kids

Karen Armstrong
“Look into your own heart, discover what it is that gives you pain and then refuse, under any circumstance whatsoever, to inflict that pain on anybody else.”
Karen Armstrong
