Joseph Campbell

"I say, follow your bliss and don't be afraid, and doors will open where you didn't know they were going to be."

- Joseph Campbell

And if you have not watched the movie about him, The Hero's Journey, I HIGHLY recommend it. The movie is very well done and his philosophy is profound and he speaks to what I believe are core parts of our culture and a message I think everyone can benefit from. 

Also Bill Moyer has some excellent interviews of Joseph Campbell before he passed.
