David,

Exactly when I heard Campbell make that statement I can't remember. I believe it was in his interviews with Bill Moyers in The Power of Myth but don't hold me to that. It could have been in one of the numerous interviews of Campbell I have on audio cassette, including those with Michael Toms of New Dimensions radio {The Wisdom of Joseph Campbell}. During the mid to late 1990s the first recordings of these interviews were on the shelves of most major bookstores and I bought all that were available. I must have listened to those interviews many, many times trying to get to the depths of Campbell's soul. Toms did a great service in his interviews, exposing the real man that Campbell was. {one small detail I remember from the conversations was Campbell opposed to trade unions. His reason had to with his wife's profession in dance and the union's position on some related event that Campbell opposed. I believe Campbell was non-political but when it came to personal experiences he did tend to take sides}
