Darkness Quotes - Page 23

• Gradually, the night stumbled as if stunned and wandering aimlessly into an overcast day -- limped through the wilderland of transition as though there were no knowing where the waste of darkness ended and the ashes of light began. The low clouds seemed full of grief -- tense and uneasy with accumulated woe -- and yet affectless, unable to rain, as if the air clenched itself too hard for tears. And through the dawn, Atiaran and Covenant moved heavily, unevenly, like pieces of a broken lament.

  Stephen R. Donaldson

• Here ends the SILMARILLION. If it has passed from the high and the beautiful to darkness and ruin, that was of old the fate of Arda Marred; and if any change shall come and the Marring be amended, Manwë and Varda may know; but they have not revealed it, and it is not declared in the dooms of Mandos.

• En el misterio de la vida está la infinita oscuridad del cielo nocturno iluminado por lejanos orbes de fuego, la piel empedrada de una naranja que desprende su fragancia al tocarla, la insondable profundidad de los ojos de nuestro amante. Ninguna historia de la creación, ningún sistema religioso puede describir o explicar plenamente esta riqueza y profundidad. El misterio es tan omnipresente que nadie puede saber con certeza lo que ocurrirá dentro de una hora. "No importa si tienes religión o eres agnóstico, no crees en nada, sólo puedes apreciar (sin saber ni entender) los misterios de la vida.

• La vida que camino ata mis manos me hace tomar cosas que no entiendo camino por este mundo oscuro sin saber lo que tienen de verdad, olvidando el yo que una vez conocí, hasta ti. La vida que camino eternamente era todo lo que sabía nada más me sostuvo aquí a esta tierra hasta ti. Siento el dolor de cada corazón que tomo Siento el deseo de reemplazar todo lo que he crecido para odiar La oscuridad me mantiene cerca pero la luz todavía dibuja mi alma vacía El vacío donde usé el dolor para llenar el agujero ya no me controla, ya no me llama gracias a ti.

• Hazel had read enough books to know that a line like this one is the line down which your life breaks in two. And you have to think very carefully about whether you want to cross it, because once you do it’s very hard to get back to the world you left behind. And sometimes you break a barrier that no one knew existed, and then everything you knew before crossing the line is gone. But sometimes you have a friend to rescue. And so you take a deep breath and then step over the line and into the darkness ahead.

• He had no one but himself to blame, for he’d opened himself up to it. Just a fraction at first, like a crack in a window. But the funny thing was, once you welcomed in a breeze, there was no stopping what came next. A wind, a storm, thunder and lightning, until you could no longer reach the window to close it—and didn’t really want to anyway. That’s what this new darkness was. Evil in its purest form... -Paris

• Mientras pensaba en estas cosas, aparté las cortinas y miré hacia la oscuridad, y me pareció a mi atribulada fantasía que todos aquellos pequeños puntos de luz que llenaban el cielo eran los hornos de innumerables alquimistas divinos, que trabajan continuamente, convirtiendo el plomo en oro, el cansancio en éxtasis, los cuerpos en almas, la oscuridad en Dios; y ante su perfecta labor, mi mortalidad se hizo pesada, y clamé, como han clamado tantos soñadores y hombres de letras de nuestra época, por el nacimiento de esa elaborada belleza espiritual que sólo podría elevar las almas cargadas de tantos sueños.

• The film medium is some sort of magic. I think also it's a magic that every frame comes and stands still for a fraction of a second and then it darkens. A half part of the time when you see a picture you sit in complete darkness. Isn't that fascinating? That is magic.

• Death comes to me again, a girl in a cotton slip, barefoot, giggling. It’s not so terrible she tells me, not like you think, all darkness and silence. There are windchimes and the smell of lemons, some days it rains, but more often the air is dry and sweet. I sit beneath the staircase built from hair and bone and listen to the voices of the living. I like it, she says, shaking the dust from her hair, especially when they fight, and when they sing.
