We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.
One kernel is felt in a hogshead; one drop of water helps to swell the ocean; a spark of fire helps to give light to the world. None are too small, too feeble, too poor to be of service. Think of this and act.
What torture, this life in society! Often someone is obliging enough to offer me a light, and in order to oblige him I have to fish a cigarette out of my pocket.
Faith is the bird that feels the light when the dawn is still dark.
Deep in their roots, all flowers keep the light.
Nothing, storm or flood, must get in the way of our need for light and ever more and brighter light. The truth is the light and light is the truth.
Numb the dark and you numb the light.
There are darknesses in life and there are lights, and you are one of the lights, the light of all lights.
The darkness has it's own light.
To light a candle is to cast a shadow...
Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.
The key word for our time is practice. We have all the light we need, we just need to put it into practice.
Death is not extinguishing the light; it is only putting out the lamp because the dawn has come.
I would rather walk with a friend in the dark, than alone in the light.
To shine your brightest light is to be who you truly are.
