In Greek mythology, the hero wants to be great, but the very concept does not exist in the Indian vocabulary. Yet it has become the global template. And it’s a template that won’t fit in India Picture Quote #1

Medical training taught me the art of breaking down the complex maze of stories, symbols and rituals into clear systems. You could say that it helped me figure out the anatomy and physiology of mythology and its relevance in a society more incisively. How is it that no society can, or does, exist without them? Picture Quote #1

When I was growing up in the mid- 50s, the Roaring Twenties were a huge part of the culture. There were a number of films and a bunch of television shows that dealt with the mythology of the underworld from that period Picture Quote #1

Many researchers do feel that humankind may have to face another Great Cleansing, such as the Great Flood of world mythology.

It is pure mythology that women cannot perform as well as men in science, engineering and mathematics. In my experience, the opposite is true: Women are often more adept and patient at untangling complex problems, multitasking, seeing the possibilities in new solutions and winning team support for collaborative action Picture Quote #1

For the liver, what’s so interesting is that there’s no stem cell in the liver. So the normal liver actually can regenerate. It’s one of the only organs in the human body that can do this, and we’ve known this since the time of Greek mythology Picture Quote #1

There is a diverse meaning to the lyrics as well. A lot of the stuff I write is from a personal level but is not really anything that I care about if people get or not so I write alot of the stuff as metaphors based in Viking mythology and Viking History which is sort of my main interest in life and sort of my main atmosphere in life Picture Quote #1

The great universal literature has always had a tragic relation with freedom. The Greeks renounced absolute freedom and imposed order on chaotic mythology, like a tyrant Picture Quote #1

It’s starting to catch hold, and in large measure it’s because we’re starting to understand that much of what we have talked about in ancient mythology and mystical experience and so forth can pretty well be modeled within the world of quantum physics.

I also took some Folklore and Mythology classes, and I think that a lot of that influenced me Picture Quote #1

In the story of Thetis and Achilles, it’s clear this isn’t really a safe environment. She’s gone down to the River Styx - the dead are being ferried across in the background.

I grew up being very interested in Greek mythology because my mum read to my sister and I Picture Quote #1
