The myth that everyone once read great literature is just a myth.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Myth is, after all, the neverending story.
Actually, a myth is a story that is not just not true, but it's a story that is especially true. And I think the myth of Jesus is especially true.
Mythologies become exhausting burdens, from a writer's perspective.
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.
I wanted to connect a modern story with a myth that I had read.
I am attracted to myths.
I think the Christ-myth stories make great stories, whether it's 'The Matrix' or 'Braveheart,' they all are tapping into some kind of deep myth in our DNA, and by myth I don't necessarily mean false.
Myths which are believed in tend to become true.
I loved all the world's mythologies.
All the great legends are Templates for human behavior. I would define a myth as a story that has survived.
