Be guided absolutely and entirely by the vision of calmness, and not by the shadows of anxiety. The hour of calmness is the hour of illumination and correct judgment.
Everyone has a shadow. And the only way to get rid of a shadow is to turn off the lights, to stop running from the darkness and face what you fear, head on.
Thoughts are the shadows of our feelings - always darker, emptier and simpler.
Friedrich NietzscheDer Spruch darf mit Autorenangabe frei verwendet werden, da die urheberrechtliche Schutzfrist abgelaufen ist († 25. August 1900) Zur Autorenbiographie
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage and then is heard no more: it is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
Words are pale shadows of forgotten names. As names have power, words have power. Words can light fires in the minds of men. Words can wring tears from the hardest hearts.
You say that you love rain, but you open your umbrella when it rains. You say that you love the sun, but you find a shadow spot when the sun shines. You say that you love the wind, but you close your windows when wind blows. This is why I am afraid, you say that you love me too.
They told me there was nothing out there, nothing to fear. But the night my parents were murdered I caught a glimpse of something. I've looked for it ever since. I went around the world, searched in all the shadows. And there is something out there in the darkness, something terrifying, something that will not stop until it gets revenge. Me.
Home is behind - the world ahead and there are many paths to tread through shadow, to the edge of night until the stars are all alight mist and shadow, cloud and shade all shall fade. All shall fade.
Life is composed of lights and shadows, and we would be untruthful, insincere, and saccharine if we tried to pretend there were no shadows.

The important thing is to teach a child that good can always triumph over evil
Race prejudice is not only a shadow over the colored – it is a shadow over all of us, and the shadow is darkest over those who feel it least and allow its evil effects to go on.
Look not mournfully into the Past. It comes not back again. Wisely improve the Present. It is thine. Go forth to meet the shadowy Future, without fear, and with a manly heart.
My shadow's only one that walk beside me My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me Till then I walk alone
If you are alone, I'll be your shadow. If you want to cry, I'll be your shoulder. If you need to be happy, I'll be your smile. But anytime you need a friend, I'll just be me.
The moon has two appearances: Shadow and enlightment. Independent of his momentary appearance he'll always be there, but only illuminated he can be seen.
