“This is our world. Aye, there's more than enough of darkness in it. But over everything there's all this joy, Kit. There's all this lovely, lovely light.”
“There's light and joy, but there's also darkness all around and we can be lost in it.”
“...there's nothing more lovely than your lamplight, seen from a dark street...”
“There's power in the night. There's terror in the darkness. Despite all our accumulated history, learning, and experience, we remember. We remember times when we were too small to reach the light switch on the wall, and when darkness itself was enough to make us cry out in fear....”
“There's more to life than love.”
“there's no worthy opponent in the world than love!”
