The Campell Quote

Joseph Campbell was an American author and teacher best known for his work in the field of comparative mythology. This quote comes from his book Goddess: Mysteries of the Feminine Divine. This quote comes from the introductory chapter where Campbell gives a brief history of goddess worship through the ages. To me, he is trying to say that even though worship of the goddess is rare now, it hasn't been. She continues to return to the world in various guises. Even though we don't know her very well now, she will have her ways of reaching out to her children.
