If there is a terror about darkness because we cannot see, there is also a terror about light because we can see. There is a terror about light because much of what we see in the light about ourselves and our world we would rather not see, would rather not have be seen.
— Frederick Buechner, U. S. writer and preacher (1926–) Frederick Buechner, The Hungering Dark (HarperOne, 1985), p. 50 |
