“When we lose contact, we see only hate,only injustice, a giant so greatits shadow blocks our sun.”
“One should, when overwhelmed by the shadow of a giant, move aside and see if the colossal shadow isn't merely that of a pygmy blocking out the sun.”
“If I've learned anything, it's that we can never let the chaos and injustice make us so blind with anger that we become part of the problem. Understanding compassion, kindness, and love are the only true revolutionary ideals. When we compromise those we become what we despise, and we lose our humanity.”
“Love is a trap. When it appears, we see only its light, not its shadows.”
“Carl Jung called this his shadow work. He said we never see others. Instead we see only aspects of ourselves that fall over them. Shadows. Projections. Our associations.”
“It is only when I lose contact with the painting that the result is a mess.”
