Being Catheresque, and having mulled it over,
I'm thinking "The material out of which countries are made"
There seemed to be nothing to see; no fences, no creeks or trees, no hills or fields. If there was a road, I could not make it out in the faint starlight. There was nothing but land: not a country at all, but the material out of which countries are made.

Seems a little too wordy, but thanks anyway :)

Perhaps, "The stuff lives are made of" or "What lives are made of"
???

Because in the end,
all that remains of us in this world
are the stories people tell about us.

Lol, I disagree. The influence we have on folks lives on, long after we kick the bucket ;)

The power of words

How about-"How stories have shaped the world."

Thanks, Elaine :)

Seeing the world through story-colored spectacles? I know that's clumsy, but it seems close to what you're thinking of. Maybe "Seeing the world through story"?

Thanks, Mary :)

This is probably more of a tagline than a title:

"Like the Energizer Bunny, the Power of Stories goes on and on and on ..."

[jongibbs]

Lol, good one :)

The Pen Is Mightier Than The Ring Tone.

The power of stories, told via the written word.

Lol, thanks Elizabeth :)

Versus the oral tradition, of course, as there is more of a permanence to the narration. ;)
