&quot;As you get closer to the light, the greater your shadow becomes.&quot;<br /> &quot;Never fear shadows. They simply mean there&#039;s a light shining somewhere nearby.&quot;<br /> &quot;The best way to become boring is to say everything.&quot;<br /> &quot;Forget arrogance, just ask and recieve&quot;
