"where we had thought to slay another, we shall slay ourselves; where we had thought to travel outward, we shall come to the center of our own existence; where we had thought to be alone, we shall be with all the world."

The Hero with a Thousand Faces (p.25, 1949) Joseph Campbell

Might I suggest you read as much of Joseph Campbell as you can get your hands on? "The Power of Myth" is my favorite by him... amazing concepts to turn over seeing a new facet each time.
