Interpretation
A. “We’ve all got both light and darkness inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That’s who we really are.” —J.K. Rowling
B. “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.” —Martin Luther King, Jr.
C. “It is better to light a candle than curse the darkness.” —Eleanor Roosevelt
D. “Sometimes our light goes out, but is blown into flame by another human being. Each of us owes deepest thanks to those who have rekindled the light.” —Albert Schweitzer
E. “Maybe it’s the very presence of one thing—light or darkness—that necessitates the existence
of the other. Think about it, people couldn’t become legendary heroes if they hadn’t first done something to combat darkness. Doctors could
do no good if there weren’t diseases for them to treat.” —Jessica Shirvington
