It is not the fault of the stars that they shine brightly, but the fault of our eyes that they cannot handle light.

If the sky never grew dark, we would not be able to clearly see the stars.

Be so warm that people mistake you for the sun; so bright that people mistake you for the stars; and so accommodating that people mistake you for the universe.

As paint needs a canvass for its beauty to show, stars need darkness for their splendor to shine.

Stars earn their brightest colors in the dark.

Learn from stars; when dark times try to dull your sparkle, shine.

When night comes do not despair; rejoice instead and say to yourself, “At least now I can see the stars.

Be like stars; when darkness tries to stop you from shining, shine all the more.

It is better to shine your light than to wait for stars to glow.
