A myth…is a master key; use it on what door you like (C.S. Lewis)

A myth points, for each reader, to the realm he lives in most. It is a master key; use it on what door you like.

– C.S. Lewis, On Stories: And Other Essays on Literature, p. 85 (commenting on The Lord of the Rings as myth rather than allegory)
