Anatole FranceWe chase dreams and embrace shadows.
About This Quote
Dreams and shadows represent obstacles and challenges. Dreams represent hope, and we chase them. Shadows, however, are things we must overcome. We embrace our shadows and learn from them, because we know they can be the path to our greatest dreams. We chase our dreams, but we also embrace our shadows, because they can lead us to that inner light that allows us to pursue our dreams without getting discouraged.
