Myths are wonderful tools that we've had, oh, for eons now that help us navigate the situations we find ourselves in.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Myths are part of our DNA. We're a civilisation with a continuous culture. The effort to modernize it keeps it alive. Readers connect with it.
There's a reason that all societies and cultures and small bands of humans engage in myth-making. Fundamentally, it is to help us understand ourselves.
I am attracted to myths.
Myths are stories that express meaning, morality or motivation. Whether they are true or not is irrelevant.
Myths are stories that explain a natural phenomenon. Before humans found scientific explanations for such things as the moon and the sun and rainbows, they tried to understand them by telling stories.
The more real things get, the more like myths they become.
Myths which are believed in tend to become true.
In terms of the mechanics of story, myth is an intriguing one because we didn't make myth up; myth is an imprinture of the human condition.
Myth is supposed to bring us together, but fantasy alienates us.
Myths are a waste of time. They prevent progression.
