Famous quotes containing the words mythological and/or thought:
“Both magic and religion are based strictly on mythological tradition, and they also both exist in the atmosphere of the miraculous, in a constant revelation of their wonder-working power. They both are surrounded by taboos and observances which mark off their acts from those of the profane world.”
—Bronislaw Malinowski (18841942)
“A superstition which pretends to be scientific creates a much greater confusion of thought than one which contents itself with simple popular practices.”
