Quotes about good-life
good-life military hero
What I think is that a good life is one hero journey after another. Over and over again, you are called to the realm of adventure, you are called to new horizons.

But there's also the possibility of bliss. Joseph Campbell

Faith gives the courage to live and do. Scientists, with their disciplined thinking, like others, need a basis for the good life, for aspiration, for courage to do great deeds.
