"I say there is no darkness but ignorance."
"I have a face where half is mine and half is not, it is hard to see a difference when you stand in front of me under the light as both my eyes shines equally. But the day you step into the darkness I hold inside me you will see my face the way it is and it will end up changing your whole world related to me forever."
"Deep darkness enhances the brightness and beauty of a little lamp."
