If you know the dark, you find it has a light of its own to let you see.
Leslie Ford
Image
We cannot arrive at the perfect possession of God in this life, and that is why we are travelling and in darkness. But we already possess Him by grace, and therefore in that sense we have arrived and are dwelling in the light. But oh! How far have I to go to find You in Whom I have already arrived!
Thomas Merton
Image
He could not feel her near him in the darkness nor hear her voice touch his ear. He waited for some minutes listening. He could hear nothing: the night was perfectly silent. He listened again: perfectly silent. He felt that he was alone.
James Joyce
Image
Right awareness is awareness of one's own being in its totality: all that is good and all that is bad. But as you become aware, the bad starts disappearing - just as when you bring light into the room, the darkness disappears. When light is in the room, darkness cannot exist there. Sin is darkness, forgetfulness, unconsciousness.
Rajneesh
Image
Burning stakes do not lighten the darkness.
Stanislaw Jerzy Lec
Image
Real loneliness consists not in being alone, but in being with the wrong person, in the suffocating darkness of a room in which no deep communication is possible.
Sydney J. Harris
Image
And I tell myself, a moon will rise from my darkness.
Mahmoud Darwish
Image
Guess what: God created beings not to act in a morality play but to experience what is unfathomable, to elicit what can become, to descend into the darkness of creation and reveal it to him, to mourn and celebrate enigma and possibility. The universe is a whirling dervish, not a hanging judge in robes.
Richard Grossinger
Image
There are books like Darkness at Noon, which from the prose standpoint I don't think is a perfect book. It has flaws. But for its time, it was very politically courageous.
David Bezmozgis
Image
This is. And thou art. There is no safety. There is no end. The word must be heard in silence. There must be darkness to see the stars. The dance is always danced above the hollow place, above the terrible abyss.
Ursula K. Le Guin
Image
As there is no darkness in the moonlight. So is Mustafa (Muhammad), the well wisher, bright.
Abu Bakr
Image
What Lily craved was the darkness made by enfolding arms, the silence which is not solitude, but compassion holding its breath.
Edith Wharton
Image
Art thou in the darkness? Mind it not, for if thou dost it will feed thee more. But stand still, and act not, and wait in patience, till light arises out of darkness and leads thee.
James Nayler
Image
Because there is liberating power in each and every truth, the one who walks in the truth in all his ways will be set free. A lie, no matter how little, gives the powers of darkness an opening for attack, but the truth chases them far away.
Johan Oscar Smith
Image
The very meaninglessness of life forces man to create his own meaning. If it can be written or thought, it can be filmed.
Stanley Kubrick
Image
So the darkness shall be the light, and the stillness the dancing.
T. S. Eliot
Image
If I must die, I will encounter darkness as a bride, and hug it in mine arms.
William Shakespeare
Image
David Whitmer wrote: ' Joseph Smith would put the seer stone into a hat, and put his face in the hat, drawing it closely around his face to exclude the light and in the darkness the spiritual light would shine.'
Russell M. Nelson
Image
Light coursed through Karou and darkness chased it-burning through her, chilling her, shimmer and shadow, ice and fire, blood and starlight, rushing, roaring, filling her.
Laini Taylor
Image
I should very much like to remain in the darkness of not having been analyzed.
Albert Einstein
Image
You can curse the darkness or light a candle. The choice is yours.
Patrick Kane
Image
Shadow is ever besieged, for that is its nature. Whilst darkness devours, and light steals. And so one sees shadow ever retreat to hidden places, only to return in the wake of the war between dark and light.
Steven Erikson
Image
Shall I turn up the light for you? No, give me deeper darkness. Money is not made in the light.
George Bernard Shaw
Image
The ritual of exorcism is not practiced by an ordinary priest. An exorcist requires specific training and must be thought to have a personal sanctity. He can be exposed to dangerous behavior and personal threat. His prayers often cause a violent response as he attempts to shine a beam of light into the darkness.
Gabriele Amorth
