“Heroes move out of the society that would have protected them, and into the dark forest, into the world of fire, of ordinary experience. Original experience hasn’t been interpreted for you, so you have to work out your life for yourself. Either you can take it or you can’t.

You don’t have to go far off the interpreted path to find yourself in very difficult situations. The courage to face the trials and to bring a whole new body of possibilities into the field of interpreted experience for other people to experience – that is the hero’s deed.”

—  Joseph Campbell, On The Hero’s Journey.
