Aphorism

"Kites rise highest against the wind, not with it"-Winston Churchill

This quote by Winston Churchill a man who I admire has a lot of truth to it and applies for what I have seen in life.

Throughout life, I have noticed that to find yourself important but mostly to find the truth one must question everything. My choice between this aphorism and Albert Einstein's "Never stop questioning" was extremely delicate. I chose this one because I can explain this one through the other. If you question everything, you question and initially go against the wind of society and of life. If you are accepting, you are going with the wind. Never stop questioning! and "Rise Against the wind".

Joseph Campbell talks about Hero's. He says that the achievement of the hero is one that he is ready for. This means to me that one has to be ready to rise against the wind. The hero needs to be ready. The hero has to be out there fighting against everything.

"A hero is someone who has given his life to something bigger than himself"-Joseph Campbell
