Text Quotes
My academic identity is that of a folklorist, and for many years I have taught only folklore courses  (Folklore Quotes) When fairy tales are written in the west, they’re known as folklore. In the east, fairy tales are called religions  (Folklore Quotes) What I find interesting about folklore is the dialogue it gives us with storytellers from centuries past  (Folklore Quotes) Folklore is the perfect second skin. From under its hide, we can see all the shimmering, shadowy uncertainties of the world  (Folklore Quotes) Witches never existed, except in people’s minds. All there was in the olden days was women and some men who believed in herbal cures and in folklore and in the wish to fly. Witches? We’re all witches in one way or another. Witches was the invention of mankind, son. We’re all witches beneath the skin  (Folklore Quotes) Rivers run through our history and folklore, and link us as a people.

Although this is a tall order, I look forward to it because I learn so much from it  (Folklore Quotes) I detest my past, and anyone else’s.

It’s only in our lifetime that running has become associated with fear and pain  (Folklore Quotes) There is scarce a cave, an isolated rock, a lone pine tree or a pile of stones without supporting folklore  (Folklore Quotes) I’ve loved fairytales, folklore and mythology since I was a small child, and I think it was inevitable that they would influence my style and my development of stories  (Folklore Quotes) The assumption that men were created equal, with an equal ability to make an effort and win an earthly reward, although denied every day by experience, is maintained every day by our folklore and our daydreams  (Folklore Quotes) Folklore is a collection of ridiculous notions held by other people, but not by you and me  (Folklore Quotes) Folklore used to be passed by word of mouth, from one generation to the next; thats what makes it folklore, as opposed to, say, history, which is written down and stored in an archive  (Folklore Quotes) I love gothic monsters, but I like to root them more firmly in the traditional folklore from which they sprang. Or at least, I like to evoke the feeling of those folk stories  (Folklore Quotes) There are lots of things in the folklore, like they can only be killed by a silver bullet, that don’t realistically work, if you’re trying to say they have existed for hundreds of years, unknown  (Folklore Quotes) Management means, in the last analysis, the substitution of thought for brawn and muscle, of knowledge for folklore and superstition, and of cooperation for force  (Folklore Quotes)
