“Maybe you have to know the darkness before you can appreciate the light.”
― Madeleine L'Engle, A Ring of Endless Light

“It is possible to suffer and despair an entire lifetime and still not give up the art of laughter.”

“There is in God, some say, a deep but dazzling darkness.”
― Madeleine L'Engle, A Ring of Endless Light

“I saw Eternity the other night,
Like a great ring of pure and endless light,
All calm, as it was bright,
And round beneath it, Time, in hours, days, years,
Driven by the spheres,
Like a vast shadow moved, in which the world
And all her train were hurled.”
― Madeleine L'Engle, A Ring of Endless Light
