Random quote of the day (Tuesday):


"No fantasy or dream image is so personal that it has no archetypal content; no daimonic encounter or epiphany is without some trace of the personal."

—Patrick Harpur, The Philosopher's Secret Fire

Daimonic Reality is one of my favorite books in this vein--if you can find a copy, I highly recommend it. He writes so wonderfully about the boundary land between Imagination and Reality.
