“There is darkness inside all of us, though mine is more dangerous than most. Still, we all have it—that part of our soul that is irreparably damaged by the very trials and tribulations of life. We are what we are because of it, or perhaps in spite of it. Some use
it as a shield to hide behind, others as an excuse to do unconscionable things. But, truly, the darkness is simply a piece of the whole, neither good nor evil unless you make it so. It
took a witch, a war, and a voodoo queen to teach me that.”
― Jenna Maclaine, Bound By Sin

“أَنا لستُ مني إن أَتيتُ ولم أَصِلْ

أَنا لستُ منِّي إن نَطَقْتُ ولم أَقُلْ

أَنا مَنْ تَقُولُ له الحُروفُ الغامضاتُ :

اكتُبْ تَكُنْ !

واقرأْ تَجِدْ !”
― محمود درويش, جدارية

“What makes night within us may leave stars.”
― Victor Hugo, Ninety-Three

“There are different kinds of darkness,” Rhys said. I kept my eyes shut. “There is the darkness that frightens, the darkness that soothes, the darkness that is restful.” I pictured each. “There is the darkness of lovers, and the darkness of assassins. It becomes what the bearer wishes it to be, needs it to be. It is not wholly bad or good.”
― Sarah J. Maas, A Court of Mist and Fury
