Text Quotes
What are the things that you can’t see that are important? I would say justice, truth, humility, service, compassion, love... They’re the guiding lights of a life  (Lights Quotes) In a universe suddenly divested of illusion and lights, man feels an alien, a stranger. His exile is without remedy since he is deprived of the memory of a lost home or the hope of a promised land  (Lights Quotes) I would stare into the bright lights and imagine I could do anything. Be anything. And I would tell myself it would be me up there one day  (Lights Quotes) I have since only rarely seen the tree with the lights in it. The vision comes and goes, mostly goes, but I live for it, for the moment when the mountains open and a new light roars in spate through the crack, and the mountains slam  (Lights Quotes) Whoever has done harmful actions but later covers them up with good is like the moon which, freed from clouds, lights up the world  (Lights Quotes) Those... who find delight in freedom from attachment in the renunciation of clinging, free from the inflow of thoughts, they are like shining lights, having reached final liberation in the world  (Lights Quotes) If you want to know how much darkness there is around you, you must sharpen your eyes, peering at the faint lights in the distance  (Lights Quotes) If you were a blade of grass or a tiny flower I will pitch my tent in your shadow. Only your presence revives my withered heart. You are the candle that lights the whole world and I am an empty vessel for your light  (Lights Quotes) Most of our childhood is stored not in photos, but in certain biscuits, lights of day, smells, textures of carpet  (Lights Quotes) Through the lights cameras and action, glamour glitters and gold I unfold the scroll, plant seeds to stampede the globe  (Lights Quotes) We humans are obsessed with lights... Perhaps it is our way of hurling the constellations back at the sky  (Lights Quotes) For I could not read or speak and on the long nights I could not turn the moon off or count the lights of cars across the ceiling  (Lights Quotes) Then, we realize that the degraded cocoon we have been hiding in is revolting, and we want to turn up the lights as far as we can. In fact, we are not turning up the lights, but we are simply opening our eyes wider. We catch a certain kind of fever  (Lights Quotes) Babies should enjoy the freedom to vocalize whether it be in church, a public meeting place, during a movie, or after hours when the lights are out. They have not yet learned that joy and laughter have to last a lifetime and must be conserved  (Lights Quotes) A few drinks later you’re not so choosy when the closing lights strip off the shadows on this strange new flesh you’ve found  (Lights Quotes) When I turn the lights out, when I close my eyes, reality overcomes me, I’m living a lie  (Lights Quotes) I looked up and all I saw was blue lights. If I die tonight, I’m dying in a gun fight  (Lights Quotes) Our problem right now is that we’re so specialized that if the lights go out, there are a huge number of people who are not going to know what to do. But within every dystopia there’s a little utopia  (Lights Quotes) The literary world is made up of little confederacies, each looking upon its own members as the lights of the universe; and considering all others as mere transient meteors, doomed to soon fall and be forgotten, while its own luminaries are to shine steadily into immortality  (Lights Quotes) The presence of a noble nature, generous in its wishes, ardent in its charity, changes the lights for us: we begin to see things again in their larger, quieter masses, and to believe that we too can be seen and judged in the wholeness of our character  (Lights Quotes) Now, learning how to make a movie is something you can figure out in about an afternoon. The physics of it, the marks, the lights, etc. What’s hard to do is to suspend your own feelings of self consciousness. The natural actors can do that; they can become part of a characterization and learn how to maintain it  (Lights Quotes) When I am lonely for boys it’s their bodies I miss. I study their hands lifting the cigarettes in the darkness of the movie theaters, the slope of a shoulder, the angle of a hip. Looking at them sideways, I examine them in different lights. My love for them is visual: that is the part of them I would like to possess. Don’t move, I think. Stay like that, let me have that  (Lights Quotes) We want to get there faster. Get where? Wherever we are not. But a human soul can only go as fast as a man can walk, they used to say. In that case, where are all the souls? Left behind. They wander here and there, slowly, dim lights flickering in the marshes at night, looking for us. But they’re not nearly fast enough, not for us, we’re way ahead of them, they’ll never catch up. That’s why we can go so fast: our souls don’t weigh us down  (Lights Quotes) The lights of prayer that make us imagine we are beginning to be angels are sometimes only signs that we are finally beginning to be men. We do not have a high enough opinion of our own nature. We think we are at the gates of heaven and we are only just beginning to come into our own realm as free and intelligent beings  (Lights Quotes) She lights a match in the dark hall and moves it onto the wick of the candle. Light lifts itself onto her shoulders. She is on her knees. She puts her hands on her thighs and breathes in the smell of the sulphur. She imagines she slap breathes in light  (Lights Quotes) I would have done anything for him. Maybe that was my sickness. We made love in nothing places and turned the lights off. It felt like crying. We could not look at each other. It always had to be from behind. Like that first time. And I knew he wasn’t thinking of me. He squeezed my sides so hard, and pushed so hard. Like he was trying to push me through to somewhere else. Why does anyone ever make love?  (Lights Quotes) From this distance, in the dimness, the model looked surreal, made up of parts filled with buildings, bordered by long stretches of empty space. It reminded me of the way cities and towns look when you are flying at night. You can’t make out much. But the places where people have come together, and stayed, are collections of tiny lights, breaking up the darkness  (Lights Quotes) I can see it. This one moment when you know you’re not a sad story. You’re alive. And you stand up and see the lights and the buildings and everything that makes you wonder. And you’re listening to that song in that drive with the people you love most in this world. And in this moment I swear… we are infinite  (Lights Quotes) It is impossible for us, who live in the latter ages of the world, to make observations in criticism, morality, or in any art or science, which have not been touched upon by others. We have little else left us but to represent the common sense of mankind in more strong, more beautiful, or more uncommon lights  (Lights Quotes) Hope works in these ways: it looks for the good in people instead of harping on the worst; it discovers what can be done instead of grumbling about what cannot; it regards problems, large or small, as opportunities; it pushes ahead when it would be easy to quit; it lights the candle instead of cursing the darkness  (Lights Quotes)
