Human Limits

"There are moments when we all, in one way or another, have to go to a place that we have never seen, and do what we have never done before."
-- Karen Armstrong, A Short History of Myth, pg. 3 (Knopf Canada)

"You cannot be a hero unless you are prepared to give up everything; there is no ascent to the heights without a prior descent into darkness, no new life without some form of death."
-- Karen Armstrong, A Shrot History of Myth, pg. 37 (Knopf Canada)
