About This Quote
If God created shadows it was to better emphasise the light. This is another example of a saying that has several different interpretations. Some people believe it is about how everything in the universe exists to make the light brighter. Others see it as an explanation for why God would create things that are hard to understand or are not easily visualised. Another interpretation is that the creation of shadow are sometimes created by people to help others see what is right in front of them.
