We Must Have A New Mythology, But It Must Place Itself At The Service Of Ideas, It Must Become A Mythology Of Reason. Mythology Must Become Philosophical, So That The People May Become Rational, And Philosophy Must Become Mythological, So That Philosophers May Become Sensible. If We Do Not Give Ideas A Form That Is Aesthetic, I.e., Mythological, They Will Hold No Interest For People.

Every Philosophy Is Complete In Itself And, Like A Genuine Work Of Art, Contains The Totality. Just As The Works Of Apelles And Sophocles, If Raphael And Shakespeare Had Known Them, Should Not Have Appeared To Them As Mere Preliminary Exercises For Their Own Work, But Rather As A Kindred Force Of The Spirit, So, Too Reason Cannot Find In Its Own Earlier Forms Mere Useful Preliminary Exercises For Itself.
