Quote by Terry Pratchett

“My experience in Amsterdam is that cyclists ride where the hell they like and aim in a state of rage at all pedestrians while ringing their bell loudly, the concept of avoiding people being foreign to them. My dream holiday would be a) a ticket to Amsterdam b) immunity from prosecution and c) a baseball bat.”

“When we open a door and switch on the light, we can see inside: what’s going on. Is there someone there? Is this a kitchen, or a bedroom? What is that book on the bed? Light gives us information. We become informed by light. Through light, we grow aware. In darkness, we can’t see the information. We can’t be informed. In the traditions, the divine declares, “Let there be light”. That is a command to life to be conscious—to turn on the light and become informed.”

“And, oh! It was a beautiful evening, as heather-purple and gorse-gold as the moorland around them, and the sky above was that stark shade of blue that looked neither dark nor light enough to be true. If it were a painting, a critic might have said that the colours were all wrong. Jack, of course, knew better than that. He had spend many an evening out on the moor. And Meadowsweet – oh how she loved it.”

“Owning up your story may seem so achy...but not as achy as spending your whole life running from your truth....disguised in the shadows of dark... To be on the edge of vulnerability might seem insecure...but not as insecure as giving up on faith, trust and love...for it is only at the edge of confession that another world awaits you, a world of love and belonging, the feelings that make us whole. Only when you are courageous enough to tread through the dark, you awaken to the undying power of light.....”
