Train yourself to grow out of that which is not good by constantly growing into the greater good; and we invariably grow into that which we think of the most.

Those Words are hard to keep still within definitions; they make the dictionary hum like a beehive. But in such words, in their resonance within their histories and in their associations with one another, we find our indispensable humanity, without which we are lost and in danger."
"eXperience and bring forth what you are and what you might be. This is the place of creative incubation. At first you may find that nothing happens there. But if you have a sacred place and use it, something eventually will happen. ~ Joseph Campbell, The Power of Myth
