Look at how a single candle can both defy and define the darkness.

Better to light one candle than to curse the darkness

I am the brightest light beaming from the darkest depths. A dichotomy, i am . . . illumination.

I love the way you lit candles, with the insistence that I never look, just so I can open my eyes and find the light in the darkness.

All the darkness of the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle, yet one candle can illuminate all the darkness.

It is better to light a candle than curse the darkness.
