Frequently Asked Questions

Do these quotes use "dark" to mean something bad?

Yes - one quote reflects on a rough chapter, saying, "It was a dark time for me," referring to a period that clashed with the speaker's beliefs and personality. For more reflections on tough periods, see our Dark Time collection.
How do these quotes connect darkness and humor?
One quote makes an interesting connection, noting that "some things are so dark that you have to laugh about it" - suggesting comedy can be a way of coping with heavy topics.
