"Hail to the speaker, Hail to the knower,
Joy to him who has understood,
Delight to those who have listened." - Havamal

"If you can't get a lot of mileage out of a myth,
you need to find some new myths." - Matt Dyer, RKN

"Once upon a time..." is how fairy tales begin.
Myths should begin with "Now there is..." - Michael Schütz, ARF
