Opposites

opposites

This week’s creative prompt is Opposites. Young, old. Happy, sad. Light, dark. Be inspired by two extremes, different ends of the spectrum, polar opposites.

The most exciting attractions are between two opposites that never meet. Andy Warhol

Light is meaningful only in relation to darkness, and truth presupposes error. It is these mingled opposites which people our life, which make it pungent, intoxicating. We only exist in terms of this conflict, in the zone where black and white clash. Louis Aragon

Without contraries is no progression. Attraction and repulsion, reason and energy, love and hate, are necessary to human existence. William Blake

It is the pull of opposite poles that stretches souls. And only stretched souls make music. Eric Hoffer
