A Binary Dualism?
You can’t study the darkness by flooding it with light.
-Edward Abbey
Begin challenging your own assumptions. Your assumptions are your windows on the world. Scrub them off every once in awhile, or the light won't come in.
-Alan Alda
The quality of light by which we scrutinize our lives has direct bearing upon the product which we live, and upon the changes which we hope to bring about through those lives.
-Audre Lorde
Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
-Martin Luther King, Jr.
We all walk in the dark and each of us must learn to turn on his or her own light.
-Earl Nightingale
A scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it.
-Max Planck
There is a good principle which created order, light, and man, and an evil principle which created chaos, darkness, and woman.
-Pythagoras
Life and death appeared to me ideal bounds, which I should first break through, and pour a torrent of light into our dark world.
-Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
The moment we begin to fear the opinions of others and hesitate to tell the truth that is in us, and from motives of policy are silent when we should speak, the divine floods of light and life no longer flow into our souls.
-Elizabeth Cady Stanton
As we let our light shine, we consciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence actually liberates others.
-Marianne Williamson
You cannot, in human experience, rush into the light. You have to go through the twilight into the broadening day before the noon comes and the full sun is upon the landscape.
-Woodrow Wilson
