No one wants to stumble into gates on moonless nights to trip in holes dug by dogs, but Maria finds more beauty than danger in night.

About This Quote

Maria is an independent, determined girl who holds her own in the world despite many obstacles. She is not afraid of the darkness and stands strong against those who would try to harm her. At night, Maria makes her way through the dark without fear of what may be lurking around the corner. She is not afraid to face these things alone, because she knows that if she needs help, she can always reach out to others for support. She knows that there is no more beautiful thing than the light of day but has found beauty in the night as well.
