God is the light that illuminates the darkness, even if it does not dissolve it, and a spark of divine light is within each of us.

Heathenism is a state of mind. You can take it that I'm referring to one who does not see his world. He has no mental light. He destroys almost unwittingly. He cannot feel any Gods presence in his life. He is the 21st century man Picture Quote #1

While we get ready to rejoin the others and begin war again, the dark and storm choked sky slowly opens above our heads. Between two masses of gloomy cloud a tranquil gleam emerges; and that line of light, so blackedged and beset, brings even so it's proof that the sun is there Picture Quote #1

My cool judgement is, that if all the other doctrines of devils which have been committed to writing since letters were in the world were collected together in one volume, it would fall short of this; and that, should a prince form himself by this book, so calmly recommending hypocrisy, treachery, lying, robbery, oppression, adultery, whoredom, and murder of all kinds, Domitian or Nero would be an angel of light compared to that man Picture Quote #1

Tell me how it is that in this room there are three candles and but one light, and I will explain to you the mode of the divine existence Picture Quote #1

For many ages it has been allowed by sensible men, nihil est in intellectu quod non fuit prius in sensu: That is, there is nothing in the understanding which was not first perceived by some of the senses.

And therefore those who want any sense cannot have the least knowledge or idea of the objects of that sense; as they that never had sight have not the least knowledge or conception of light or colours Picture Quote #1

Cities have always been the fireplaces of civilization, whence light and heat radiated out into the dark Picture Quote #1
