An optimist is a person who sees only the lights in the picture, whereas a pessimist sees only the shadows. An idealist, however, is one who sees the light and the shadows, but in addition sees something else: the possibility of changing the picture, of making the lights prevail over the shadows.

Felix Adler

A background can be painted in the same range of values as the foreground by reversing the light effect. In the shadow plane, paint the lights cool and the shadows warm, and in the sunlight plane, paint the lights warm and shadows cool.

Harvey Dunn

Life is composed of lights and shadows, and we would be untruthful, insincere, and saccharine if we tried to pretend there were no shadows.

Walt Disney

Paint your picture by means of the lights. Lights define texture and color - shadows define form.

Howard Pyle

The jungle which is presided over by Kudu, the sun, is a very different jungle from that of Goro, the moon. The diurnal jungle has its own aspect--its own lights and shades, its own birds, its own blooms, its own beasts ... The lights and shades of the nocturnal jungle are as different as one might imagine the lights and shades of another world to differ from those of our world.

Edgar Rice Burroughs

You can disguise any set with lights and shadows.

Allan Dwan

We turned the lights off to save money, so you can't really see it. It's the same show. Hopefully, there are lots of laughs and lots of great personal stuff, but it is explicitly a darker season [4 of Sherlock Holmes].

Mark Gatiss

There are dark shadows on the earth, but its lights are stronger in the contrast.

Charles Dickens

Many men spend their lives in gazing at their own shadows, and so dwindle away into shadows thereof.

Augustus William Hare

Every human society has its lights and its shadows. That's the reality of existence.

Sebastian Lelio

Our ideals, like pictures, are made from lights and shadows.

Joseph Joubert

I came from the country, and when I came to the city, I was ridin' high, you know. I was seeing more lights than I ever dreamed to shine in the world. 'Cos where I came from, there wasn't too many lights. Bugs made a lot of light, but after that there wasn't no lights.

John Hunter

Shadows are in reality, when the sun is shining, the most conspicuous thing in a landscape, next to the highest lights.

John Ruskin

There are dark shadows on the earth, but its lights are stronger in the contrast. Some men, like bats or owls, have better eyes for the darkness than for the light. We, who have no such optical powers, are better pleased to take our last parting look at the visionary companions of many solitary hours, when the brief sunshine of the world is blazing full upon them.

Charles Dickens

A few drinks later you're not so choosy when the closing lights strip off the shadows on this strange new flesh you've found.
