Real Freedom Is The Ability To Pause

A Myth Is A Way Of Making Sense In A Senseless World. Myths Are Narrative Patterns That Give Significance To Our Existence. Whether The Meaning Of Existence Is Only What We Put Into Life By Our Own Individual Fortitude, As Sartre Would Hold, Or Whether There Is A Meaning We Need To Discover, As Kierkegaard Would State, The Result Is The Same: Myths Are Our Way Of Finding This Meaning And Significance.

We Must Be Fully Committed, But We Must Also Be Aware At The Same Time That We Might Possibly Be Wrong. People Who Claim To Be Absolutely Convinced That Their Stand Is The Only Right One...is A Dead Giveaway Of Unconscious Doubt. Commitment Is Healthiest When It Is Not Without Doubt, But In Spite Of Doubt.

Neither Kierkegaard Nor Nietzsche Had The Slightest Interest In Starting A Movement – Or A New System, A Thought Which Would Indeed Have Offended Them. Both Proclaimed, In Nietzsche's Phrase, Follow Not Me, But You!

Heroes Are Necessary In Order To Enable The Citizens To Find Their Own Ideals, Courage And Wisdom In The Society. The Hero Carries Our Hopes, Our Aspirations, Our Ideals, Our Beliefs. In The Deepest Sense The Hero Is Created By Us; He Or She Is Born Collectively As Our Own Myth. This Is What Makes Heroism So Important: It Reflects Our Own Sense Of Identity And From This Our Own Heroism Is Molded.

Hate Is Not The Opposite Of Love; Apathy Is.
