“La oscuridad devora la brillante luz del día.
La oscuridad exige y siempre gana.
La oscuridad escucha, observa, espera.
La oscuridad reclama el día que celebra.
A veces en el silencio llega la oscuridad.
A veces con un alegre repique de campanas.”

“Podemos caer en el amor: nunca es demasiado tarde.
¿Y por qué, entonces, dormimos odiando?
Las creencias no requieren puntos suspensivos para ver que el Infierno es invención nuestra.
Hacemos que el Infierno sea de verdad: alimentamos sus fuegos.
Y en sus llamas mueren nuestra esperanzas.
El Cielo, también, es simplemente una creación nuestra. Podemos otorgarnos nuestra propia salvación.
Todo lo que se requiere es imaginación.”

Dean Koontz
