A Quote by Phil Cousineau

The mythic is everywhere. — © Phil Cousineau
The mythic is everywhere.
I figure if someone calls something a 'Draugr,' people can figure out that it's a monster or some sort of mythic creature, and if they want to know more, there's plenty of information out there about those mythic creatures.
I prefer the gradual path My feeling is that mythic forms reveal themselves gradually in the course of your life if you know what they are and how to pay attention to their emergence. My own initiation into the mythic depths of the unconscious has been through the mind, through the books that surround me in this library. I have recognized in my quest all the stages of the hero's journey. I had my calls to adventure, my guides, demons, and illuminations.
In HEATHEN, R. Flowers Rivera remixes the classical and the Biblical, the usual and the typical until what we thought we knew of ourselves and others is new again. The mythic becomes particular; the particular becomes mythic in these fascinating poems of personalities and personas. Rivera’s work is rich in empathy and invention. Heathen is a book of psalms for the present day.
If mythic violence is lawmaking, divine violence is law-?destroying; if the former sets boundaries, the latter boundlessly destroys them; if mythic violence brings at once guilt and retribution, divine power only expiates; if the former threatens, the latter strikes; if the former is bloody, the latter is lethal without spilling blood
Dear God, please reveal to us your sublime beauty, that is everywhere, everywhere, everywhere, so that we will never again feel frightened.
Later that night, I held an atlas on my lap, ran my fingers across the whole world, and whispered, ‘where does it hurt?’ It answered, everywhere, everywhere, everywhere.
More than anything, one is struck by the light. Light everywhere. Brightness everywhere. Everywhere, the sun.
The mythic journey is always about selflessness.
What I'm doing is making an action-adventure film of mythic proportions.
I stress the uniqueness of the Australian landscape and its metaphysical and mythic content.
I know now that the mythic monster I created was largely a fiction.
I guess everywhere I go, I get inspired by those places, and then I have a bunch of Voicenotes on my phone. Everywhere I go, I think of these random melodies. It's crazy because everywhere you go, the melodies are totally different.
Many of the poems weave autobiographical elements with fabular or mythic materials.
Failure is simply the non-presence of success. But a fiasco is a disaster of mythic proportions.
You can count on Scandinavian literature for a certain kind of darkness, a modern mythic style.
I describe my personal style as 'mythic space horse with chocolate box tendencies.'
