“Light thinks it travels faster than anything but it is wrong. No matter how fast light travels, it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it.”
-Terry Pratchett
"Men walk upon the earth in light, trailing their shadows that are the day's memories of the night. For each man his shadow is his dark garment, formed to the image of his end, sombre and obscure as his own beginning. It is his shroud, awaiting him by his mother's womb lest he forget what, with his first breath of life, he no longer remembers. Sometimes when we are older there is a glimpse. It appears we are returning. We have made the circle."
- Howard O'Hagan
"I never got my hands dirty, so I could afford to pretend or ignore, or even lie to myself. He had gotten dirty once too often. Lying to yourself was a good way to die."

Night Hope on October 11
“When you have come to the edge of all light that you know and are about to drop off into the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing one of two things will happen: there will be something solid to stand on or you will be taught to fly”
- Patrick Overton
