“Things can be seen better in the darkness," he said, as if he had just seen into her mind. "But the longer you spend in the dark, the harder it becomes to return to the world aboveground where the light is”

“I'm in love with someone good and kind and gentle, and he's seen the darkness too, but somehow we've become each other's light.”

“To him that waits all things reveal themselves,' provided that he has the courage not to deny, in the darkness, what he has seen in the light.”

“They don’t really know him, not the dark and scary parts, but then again they don’t know those places in me. Only he does. Only he has seen the darkness. Only he embraces the darkness inside of me and turns it into love and light.”

“I'd seen another shade of him, and if it had been light where we were now, he'd have seen the same of me. So I was grateful, as I had been so often in my life, for the dark.”

“They don't know those places in me. Only he does. Only he has seen the darkness inside of me and turns into love and light.”
