It Is Of The Essence

There Is Only One Way To Degrade Mankind Permanently And That Is To Destroy Language.

Nobody Is Capable Of Of Free Speech Unless He Knows How To Use Language, And Such Knowledge Is Not A Gift: It Has To Learned And Worked At.

Myths, As Compared With Folk Tales, Are Usually In A Special Category Of Seriousness: They Are Believed To Have "really Happened,"or To Have Some Exceptional Significance In Explaining Certain Features Of Life, Such As Ritual. Again, Whereas Folk Tales Simply Interchange Motifs And Develop Variants, Myths Show An Odd Tendency To Stick Together And Build Up Bigger Structures. We Have Creation Myths, Fall And Flood Myths, Metamorphose And Dying-god Myths.

Between Religion's This Is And Poetry's But Suppose This Is, There Must Always Be Some Kind Of Tension, Until The Possible And The Actual Meet At Infinity.

The World Of Literature Is A World Where There Is No Reality Except That Of The Human Imagination.
