Quotes about Universal Light

Therese of Lisieux

As the sun shines both on the cedar and the smallest flower, so the Divine sun illumines each soul.

Confucius

The sun and moon shine on all without partiality.

Lajos Kossuth

I know that there is one God in heaven, the Father of all humanity, and heaven is therefore one. I know that there is one sun in the sky, which gives light to all the world. As there is unity in God, and unity in the light, so is there unity in the principles of freedom. Wherever it is broken, wherever a shadow is cast upon the sunny rays of the sun of liberty, there is always danger of free principles everywhere in the world.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

It is one light which beams out of a thousand stars. It is one soul which animates all men.

Marianne Williamson

God isn't a noun but a process...a continual, infinitely creative outpouring of love and light onto all living things.

Voltaire

We know that all the arts are brothers, that each of them illuminates another, and that a universal light results.

John Dryden

The longest tyranny that ever sway'd
Was that wherein our ancestors betray'd
Their free-born reason to the Stagirite [Aristotle],
And made his torch their universal light.
So truth, while only one suppli'd the state,
Grew scarce, and dear, and yet sophisticate.

Alexander Pope

First follow Nature, and your judgment frame
By her just standard, which is still the same:
Unerring nature, still divinely bright,
One clear, unchanged, and universal light,
Life, force, and beauty must to all impart,
At once the source, and end, and test of art.

Richard Adams Locke

It Shines for All

At a time where most of the 35 New York newspapers were elitist, very partisan and expensive costing 6¢, Locke produced the New York Sun which was targeted to the masses. It sold for only 1¢ and became the largest selling newspaper in the World even surpassing the circulation of of the London Times.

Forest Whitaker

You try to pull away the experiences until you get to the core of humanity, and you find that light that exists in everybody. It's that light that I'm searching for in all of my work - is that connective thing, that ether that enters all of us - you know what I mean? That's a part of God.
