(page 3)
An optimist is a person who sees a green light everywhere, while a pessimist sees only the red stoplight... the truly wise person is colorblind.
I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live by the light that I have. I must stand with anybody that stands right, and stand with him while he is right, and part with him when he goes wrong.
I wear black because I'm comfortable in it. But then in the summertime when it's hot I'm comfortable in light blue.
It always surprises me how much my followers appreciate how candid my photos are — they may not have a particularly unique subject, but it's more about the light you shed on the subject than the subject itself.
Light tomorrow with today!
We are not here to curse the darkness, but to light the candle that can guide us thru that darkness to a safe and sane future.
Unfortunately, we can never truly know if we're making the right decision. What we do know is that wherever we are, that's where the Light wants us to be. It's the best place for us to be now. And as long as we don't try to control the situation, then we won't end up in the place we shouldn't be.

Faith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into the light.

When a moment in front of me appears to be particularly special, whether it be by beauty or experience, I capture it. I usually find a reason to justify taking that photo — symmetry, or color, or contrast — and it's my hope that my photography sheds light onto what I see and do on a daily basis.
Talking about dreams is like talking about movies, since the cinema uses the language of dreams; years can pass in a second, and you can hop from one place to another. It's a language made of image. And in the real cinema, every object and every light means something, as in a dream.
So the darkness shall be the light, and the stillness the dancing.
Just as treasures are uncovered from the earth, so virtue appears from good deeds, and wisdom appears from a pure and peaceful mind. To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.
Pain and pleasure, like light and darkness, succeed each other.
At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us.
A smile is the light in your window that tells others that there is a caring, sharing person inside.
