He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.

When we are afraid we ought not to occupy ourselves with endeavoring to prove that there is no danger, but in strengthening ourselves to go on in spite of the danger. ~Mark Rutherford

People are like stained-glass windows. They
sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in,
their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.
