Shadow Quotes

Every light. Casts a shadow. It is a truth of physics. And it is also a truth of human existence.

The shadow is not just an area devoid of light. It is the hidden side of everything. In the human psyche. It is the unconscious. Those parts we refuse to acknowledge or see. In society. It is the dark side of progress. It is the uncomfortable truth. Understanding the shadow means understanding the full depth of the light. These sayings explore this mysterious existence. Always accompanying us.
