Famous quotes containing the word myth:

    “The poet who speaks out of the deepest instincts of man will be heard. The poet who creates a myth beyond the power of man to realize is gagged at the peril of the group that binds him. He is the true revolutionary: he builds a new world.”
    —Babette Deutsch (1895–1982)

    “The myth of unlimited production brings war in its train as inevitably as clouds announce a storm.”
    —Albert Camus (1913–1960)
