People say that what we’re all seeking is a meaning for life. . . . I think that what we’re seeking is an experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonances within our innermost being and reality, so that we can actually feel the rapture of being alive. . . .That’s what it’s all finally about, and that’s what these clues help us to find within ourselves. —Joseph Campbell, The Power of Myth
