“You have to rely on whatever sparks you have inside.”

Cassandra Clare book Clockwork Angel

“You have to find what sparks a light in you so that you in your own way can illuminate the world.”

“There are many sparks of sanctity in each person in [a] group. And when you collect all the sparks of sanctity into one place, as brothers, with love and friendship, you will certainly have a very high level of sanctity…”

It's a moonlight show

Do you have to go?”

“Whatever work I've done,
whatever I have though,
was praise with my body
and praise hidden
inside my head.”

Lalleshwari (1320–1392) Indian writer, mystic and saint

“Just as in ailing bodies, my soldiers, physicians leave nothing which will do harm, so let us cut away whatever stands in the way of our rule. Often to have ignored a tiny spark has roused a great conflagration. Nothing is safely despised in an enemy; one whom you have scorned you make stronger by neglect.”
Sicut in corporibus aegris, milites, nihil quod nociturum est medici relinquunt, sic nos quidquid obstat imperio recidamus. Parva sæpe scintilla contempta magnum excitavit incendium. Nil tuto in hoste despicitur; quem spreveris, valentiorem neglentia facias.

Quintus Curtius Rufus Roman historian

“You have to look beyond race because as a human being you have to experience the person from the inside first”

Henrik Larsson
