Sometimes you have to let the darkness win. To give up the battle for one’s soul, when the person is not ready for the light. When he hasn’t chosen it. You have to have the force to admit that there’s no sense. And to withdraw before your light starts to diminish because of other’s darkness. Before it infects you… It’s not a defeat. It’s humility. – From the novel Solitaire of Archangels – Maria Laleva
