This IS a secret...in a way. Most people don't know how true this is...how to make light win over that darkness. If you're depressed all the time, and never try to be happy, you're just digging yourself a deeper hole!

Art is anything that moves or makes a person feel something!
Love this!

can't agree more with you halcyonConserve.

I don't mind the art, I just really hate the quote for some reason. People and the choices they make can't really judged as being "good" or "evil".

Guys, seriously, is it really the art that counts? stop bashing it. Its the words that speak.
π: 0 β©: 0
This is part of the reason I dislike the whole secrets thing.
Stuff like this gets on the front page. No offense, but this isn't front page material. There are many artists on DA who actually make art, and many of them are VERY good. They deserve to be on the front page.

It's not, I think its a reply to a previous secret thus the Dear ST 12055.
π: 0 β©: 0
It's a reply to another secret.
π: 0 β©: 0
the quotes overused and has been passed around the internet all over, guess its back, and well the image quality could have been well better i personally don't think it should be on the front page but to each his own

To be frank, this bothers me.
This made it to most popular quite fast, and I don't know how.
This lacks skill and lacks good font choice, plus it takes a Facebook 'like' that wasn't even creatively made and uses it.
There is no absolute Good and Evil inside of us. If people were either good OR evil, as this post conveys, everyone would be like Mother Theresa or Hitler, nothing in between.
π: 0 β©: 2
Quite so.
People aren't good and evil, people are 'shades of grey' regardless of how they think of themselves.
π: 0 β©: 0
Yea, it bothers me too. Anyone can get stories and quotes like this off of Google. There are artists on DA who actually make art, and they should be on the front page, not stuff like this.

I thought those "dogs" were sock puppets at first. And I was confused.

This is a stolen quote. I saw this on facebook much longer before this was ever posted.
π: 0 β©: 1
the secret teller wasn't claiming the quote as his or her own. He or she was using it in a way to which many others can relate to, by using a well-known quote...
π: 0 β©: 1
Okay. I just wanted to let everyone know that it's not the person's who made it.
π: 0 β©: 0
This says exactly what I've been thinking for a long time, but didn't know how to.
π: 0 β©: 0
I really like this, the art really complements the quote while being simple enough to not overwelm it. It's all so simple.
π: 0 β©: 0
Pretty stupid. You can't just divide the whole human psyche into "light and dark".
π: 0 β©: 1
It's more like good choices and bad choices rather than the whole human psyche.
π: 0 β©: 2
Yea the whole choices thing makes more sense then you being both evil and good....
π: 0 β©: 0
So "light and dark" as in how people view you as a person? Emotions aren't as simple as "like" and "dislike". Nothing in humanity is as simple as that.
π: 0 β©: 2
I never said it was that simple. This quote can be looked at in so many different ways I could sit here all day talking about it.
π: 0 β©: 1
Tell me how a term that is used to describe things completely different from each other... opposites, can have any form of complexity? This sounds like the garbage they feed people in anime.
π: 0 β©: 1
I honestly think you're taking this a little too seriously. Sorry if I'm wrong. But I really don't feel like talking about this anymore. Goodbye.

I've never heard that quote before now. Thanks for sharing.
π: 0 β©: 0
I remember hearing a story like that but with wolves.

The quote on the end of that is the key part to me -
"The Strong man is not the one who can overpower others. Rather, the strong man is the one who controls himself when he gets angry."
- Prophet Mohammed
Lovely quote.

Why does something have to be pretty to be powerful?
I love this, and just because the person didn't have five million years in art school and drew some bad dogs, made a poor choice in font, and made the graphic a bit too small, doesn't mean that it's not amazing. I want to thank whoever made this, because even if you didn't come up with the quote yourself or responded with some peoples 'me too', you might have helped them. And I know you've helped me.
π: 0 β©: 1
Because this is an art site, not a site for sharing Facebook quotes and sharing what other people feel via poor paint drawings.
π: 0 β©: 3
Yes, an art site. Just because art is bad doesn't make it not art.
Honestly, I always pictures art as an escape. Somewhere you could leave and never come back and be able to calm down and figure yourself out.
Not a place for judgmental brats.
π: 0 β©: 2
Pictures are escape is fine and dandy but there's no need to post such things on the internet ...
There should be a difference between the art you will show others and that which you use to vent.
π: 0 β©: 1
Why should there be? Aren't the ones used to vent so much more powerful?
π: 0 β©: 1
If it's done in the right manner, sure, this however isn't vent art.
π: 0 β©: 0
Look I understand that, when I was 13 I drew this [link] and thought it was amazing.
But my problem is not the fact that it is or isn't art. It's the fact that ameture art that used someone elses words made it on the front page of DA.
So while you think I am acting so high and mighty due to the brilliance of my own work, you are wrong, which, in response makes you judgmental of me.
π: 0 β©: 0
an art sight, lol obviously it was intended for MORE than art, dear.
Thats why they give you different categories to choose from, and that's also why they let you upload animations, (3d, 2d,1d, whichever) and stories, document files
π: 0 β©: 1
I know, I've been here for years longer than you have. But this piece of artwork is ameture at best, and frankly in my opinion does not deserve to be on the front page. Nothing about this is creative, and creativity is what art is.

Could use a lot of improvement with canine anatomy.

It still manages to get the point across.
