Quote
The darkness brought a strange kind of release, and you wished secretly in your heart that darkness would descend on the whole earth so that you could get a chance to see how much energy there was stored in your little self. You could get a chance to leave the cage. You would be free.

Quote
As fear runs through me I become acutely aware of a stillness. I don’t think I ever realized that there is a stillness in darkness. It feels as if fear and freedom are the same. I wonder if death holds this kind of infinite silence and solitude.

In the dark I rest,unready for the light which dawnsday after day,eager to be shared.Black silk, shelter me.I needmore of the night before I openeyes and heartto illumination. I must stillgrow in the dark like a rootnot ready, not ready at all.

Quote
Mari—Interglactic beings have watched Earth envelop itself in darkness for millennia. But in every shroud of darkness, there are small beings such as yourself who, when dealt a cruel hand by fate, still carry the strength to smile.Your smile breaks through the dark. Your pain is where the light enters you. And your kindness is a guiding light for others. And that holds a power that even we fear. Small being, no matter what happens, never let that power go.

Quote
Ships that pass in the night, and speak each other in passing,Only a signal shown and a distant voice in the darkness;So on the ocean of life, we pass and speak one another,Only a look and a voice, then darkness again and a silence.
