It is not the fault of the stars that they shine brightly, but the fault of our eyes that they cannot handle light.
~ Matshona Dhliwayo
Stars are not praised for shining during the day, but at night.
True beauty isn't what you put on your face, it’s what you put in people’s hearts.
A star never lets anything dull its sparkle, not even darkness.
I have come to hide you,” darkness told the star. “I'm too bright,” the defiant star replied.
It is in the darkest hour that a star reveals its brightest light.
Sages shine so they can see the world, not so the world can see them.
If you try to hide a star behind a dark veil, it will still shine through it.
You don’t have to pay the sun to rise, the moon to shine, and the stars to glow.
By lighting another’s candle you brighten your own.
It is at midnight, not midday, that stars shine the brightest.
