The angel seeks the light, the beast seeks the dark.
One cannot fend off darkness with more darkness, only light.
Once there was only dark. If you ask me, the light’s winning.
Light give me strength.
Just when the night is darkest, he shines a light. And a new life begins.
It is not strength that overcomes darkness, but light. Armies may rise, hearts may fail, yet still, light endures, and is mightier than strength. For in its presence, all darkness must flee.[to Galadriel]
If he doesn’t choose the Light, I’ll choose for him.[to Ishmael, about Rand]
I like the darkness. It’s as much who I am as the light.
Everyone loves light, by the way. There’s no human being that doesn’t love light.
Do you know why a ship floats and a stone cannot? Because the stone sees only downward. The darkness of the water is vast and irresistible. The ship feels the darkness as well, striving moment by moment to master her and pull her under. But the ship has a secret. For unlike the stone, her gaze is not downward but up. Fixed upon the light that guides her, whispering of grander things than darkness ever knew.[to Galadriel]
