Adversity
"In life, we have to be strong and bright enough to face our dark times. Eclipse may come and eclipse may go, nothing should stop our inner strength’s flow"

"It had not been Edward and Jacob that I'd been trying to force together. It was the two parts of myself, Edward's Bella and Jacob's Bella but they could not exist together, and I never should have tried."

"—Acostumbraba a pensar en ti de ese modo, ya sabes, como el sol. Tu luz compensaba sobradamente mis sombras. Él suspiró. —Soy capaz de manejar las sombras, pero no de luchar contra un eclipse. •Ética, 591"

"I'm a survivor. And like the moon, I have a feeling it would take a truly spectacular event to keep me from taking my place in the scheme of things, waxing, waning, and eclipsing notwithstanding."
- Janet Rebhan
Resilience
"At birth and at dawn for each and every day it triumphs over the eclipse. It is the very first thing that you see. Its power is blinding at first, anon it opens our eyes to the allure of the world. Each moment it breathes life into us, warms our souls and colors our skin. At gloaming it seems to wane, while it privily awaits a time to give birth to a new circle of life."
- Akilnathan Logeswaran
New Beginnings
"In the deep sky where there had been a sun, we saw a ring of white silver; a smoking ring, and all the smokes were silver, too; gauzy, fuming, curling, unbelievable. And who had ever seen the sky this color! Not in the earliest morning or at twilight, never before had we seen or dreamed this strange immortal blue in which a few large stars now sparkled as though for the first time in creation."
- Elizabeth Enright
Inspiration
"I examined it cautiously. On the opposite side of the chain from the wolf, there now hung a brilliant heart-shaped crystal. It was cut in a million facets, so that even in the subdued light shining from the lamp, it sparkled. I inhaled in a low gasp..." "But I thought it was a good representation,' he continued. 'It's hard and cold.' He laughed. 'And it throws rainbows in the sunlight.' 'You forgot the most important similarity,' I murmured. 'It's beautiful.' 'My heart is just as silent,' he mused. 'And it, too, is yours."

"Well, it's nice to get something right for a change. You don't know how irritating it is - missing things the way I have been. I feel so useless. So . . . normal." She cringed in horror of the word. "I can't imagine how awful that must feel. Being normal? Ugh."

Self-awareness
"No need to look to see if your former home has vanished yet into the humdrum gray behind you; you'll be able to feel it, the sudden eclipse of the tractor beam the house puts out. Of its forcefield of sadness."
- Garth Risk Hallberg
Adversity
"—¿Es que realmente no te das cuenta de lo importante que eres para mí? ¿Tienes alguna idea de cuánto te quiero? Me apretó más fuerte contra su pecho duro acomodando mi cabeza bajo su barbilla. Presioné los labios contra su cuello frío como la nieve. —Lo que sí sé es cuánto te quiero yo —repuse. —Eso es comprar un árbol con todo un bosque. Puse los ojos en blanco, pero el no pudo verme. —Imposible. •Ultimátum, 41"

Love
"[...] Me recuerda a "el sueño de una noche de verano" y al caos que desatan los hechizos de amor de las hadas. Es una especie de magia —sonrió—. Casi tan fuerte como lo que yo siento por ti. •Egoísmo, 417"

Love
"No one could look at the beautiful young man now. They dropped their eyes from the scalding sight. From the eclipse. As all that love turned into hate."

"Edward," I said, managing to speak more clearly with a little effort, "there's no point to forever without you. I wouldn't want one day without you."

Faith
"The extent of God’s grace always eclipses the extent of my grotesqueness. Therefore, I can never be bad enough for God to tell me that He’s had enough."

"The shadowwolf had stared at her long and mute, and Mia had thought she'd refuse. But as the girl had looked down at the darkness beneath her feet, it had grown darker still. Dark enough for three."
- Jay Kristoff
Imagination
"Why is it that showers and even storms seem to come by chance, so that many people think it quite natural to pray for rain or fine weather, though they would consider it ridiculous to ask for an eclipse by prayer?"
- Henri Poincaré
Philosophy
"Esas fotos nuestras, con la película levantada y unos bordes dentados como los de los sellos, son también testimonios: nuestro cuerpo se interpuso certeramente, en algún momento, entre el sol y la lente de la cámara de fotos, dejando en la película una sombra como la que despliega la luna, durante un eclipse, sobre el disco solar."
- Mircea Cărtărescu

"The notion that writings created at a time when men huddled in superstitious terror from an eclipse can possibly be a credible representation of the Creator (whatever that word means to each person) is so absurd as to border on delusional."
