Light Quotes

He was my tormentor and my solace; the creator of the dark and the light within Picture Quote #1

With great difficulty advancing by millimeters each year, I carve a road out of the rock. For millenniums my teeth have wasted and my nails broken to get there, to the other side, to the light and the open air. And now that my hands bleed and my teeth tremble, unsure in a cavity cracked by thirst and dust, I pause and contemplate my work. I have spent the second part of my life breaking the stones, drilling the walls, smashing the doors, removing the obstacles I placed between the light and myself in the first part of my life Picture Quote #1

I don’t feel like I’ve done anything extraordinary but take my little light and shine it in darkness Picture Quote #1

The photographer has almost as much control over his subject matter as a painter. He can control light and shade, form and space, pattern and texture, motion and mood, everything except composition Picture Quote #1

My existence shrank from an arrow of light pointing into the future forever to a speck of light that was the present moment. I got better at living in that point of light, making the world into that point. I paid close attention to it. I loved it very much Picture Quote #1

The first thing people lose on a diet is their sense of humor. Keep it fun. Keep it light Picture Quote #1

I’m for turning off the tube and turning down the light, cause I’m for nothing else but me and you tonight Picture Quote #1

You know, I used to warm the thermometer on the light bulb... I was really good at being sick. I could forge my mother’s signature on a sick note so well I was hardly ever at school Picture Quote #1

I can’t envision an honest war novel that left war in a positive light Picture Quote #1

You are a being of light composed of cells of light joined together in a matrix Picture Quote #1

No one sees life like you do, because you are no one. You change constantly, like the light outside the window Picture Quote #1

The aggregates that we pick up in the human plane will be washed away, and we will become pure spirit, pure light, pure love, and pure ecstasy Picture Quote #1

We have always needed old people to keep things from going too fast and young people to keep them from going too slow. Youth has fire and age has light and we need both Picture Quote #1

A lighthouse is not interested in who gets its light! It just gives it without thinking! Giving light is its nature! Picture Quote #1

To be a lighthouse, you must be strong enough to resist every kind of storm, to every kind of loneliness and you must have a powerful light inside you! Picture Quote #1

I have a lot of mirrors around my house, not because I like to look at myself, but because I like the light and perspective they bring to a room Picture Quote #1

Even a small match lit in a place of total darkness gives off a blinding light Picture Quote #1

Some frauds succeed from the apparent candor, the open confidence, and the full blaze of ingenuousness that is thrown around them. The slightest mystery would excite suspicion and ruin all. Such stratagems may be compared to the stars; they are discoverable by darkness and hidden only by light Picture Quote #1

From heaven’s standpoint, all spiritual victories are won not primarily in the pulpit, not primarily in the klieg light of publicity, nor yet through the ostentatious blaring of trumpets, but in the secret place of prayer Picture Quote #1

You see these thick curtains shut out the daylight: artificial light suits me a great deal better; it’s absolutely steady, and much more exciting Picture Quote #1

I haven’t yet managed to capture the colour of this landscape; there are moments when I’m appalled at the colours I’m having to use, I’m afraid what I’m doing is just dreadful and yet I really am understating it; the light is simply terrifying Picture Quote #1

You’ll understand, I’m sure that I’m chasing the merest sliver of color. It’s my own fault. I want to grasp the intangible. It’s terrible how the light runs out. Color, any color, lasts a second, sometimes 3 or 4 minutes at most Picture Quote #1

I see only forms that are lit up and forms that are not. There is only light and shadow Picture Quote #1

There is a world of communication which is not dependent on words. This is the world in which the artist operates and for him words can be dangerous unless they are examined in the light of the work. The communication is in the work and words are no substitute for this Picture Quote #1

It seemed to me that it was possible to translate light, forms, and character using nothing but color, without recourse to values Picture Quote #1

I begin my pictures under the effect of a shock which I feel and which makes me escape from reality... I need a point of departure, even if it’s only a speck of dust or a flash of light Picture Quote #1

$Who knows how many artists fail because the light that shines through them is defracted in a thousand directions and not concentrated in a single beam? Picture Quote #1$

Strive to attain to the greater virtues, but do not neglect the lesser ones. Do not make light of a fall even if it be the most venial of faults; rather, be quick to repair it by repentance, although many others may commit a large number of faults, slight and grievous, and remain unrepentant Picture Quote #1

Think of a star. A star burns its very substance to give light to others. You need to be like a star Picture Quote #1

The transcendental light permeates your being and washes away impurity. All those different selves which are limited and binding and hurting are washed away Picture Quote #1
