Light thinks it travels faster than anything but it is wrong. No matter how fast light travels, it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it.
Terry Pratchett
Darkness is only driven out with light, not more darkness.
Martin Luther King Jr
Darkness is to space what silence is to sound, i.e., the interval.
Marshall McLuhan
Give light, and the darkness will disappear of itself.
Desiderius Erasmus
There is no such thing as darkness;only a failure to see.
Malcolm Muggeridge
Fear grows in darkness; if you think there's a bogeyman around, turn on the light.
Dorothy Thompson
In darkness one may be ashamed of what one does, without the shame of disgrace
Sophocles
A man must dream a long time in order to act with grandeur, and dreaming is nursed in darkness.
Jean Genet
The depth of darkness to which you can descend and still live is an exact measure of the height to which you can aspire to reach.
Pliny the Elder
For darkness restores what light cannot repair.
Iosip Aleksandrovich Brodsky
Weak mortals, chained to the earth, creatures of clay as frail as the foliage of the woods, you unfortunate race, whose life is but darkness, as unreal as a shadow, the illusion of a dream.
Aristophanes
I cannot imagine that someone could go to Tnismgi and in the darkness of the night put the Bronze Soldier on the hook of the crane and drive it away somewhere. This is not a solution acceptable for a constitutional state.
Andrus Ansip
The impassive skies were neutral, empty, still. Then something in the inscrutable darkness stirred; A nameless movement, an unthought Idea Insistent, dissatisfied, without an aim, Something that wished but knew not how to be, Teased the Inconscient to wake Ignorance.
Sri Aurobindo
