More From Iris Murdoch

Once again you are wrong sir, darkness does not exist either. darkness is in reality the absence of light. light we can study, but not darkness. in fact we can use newton's prism to break white light into many colors and study the various wavelengths of each color. you cannot measure darkness. a simple ray of light can break into a world of darkness and illuminate it. how can you know how dark a certain space is? you measure the amount of light present. isn't this correct? darkness is a term used by man to describe what happens when there is no light present.
Dark Simple Reality
I want as much time in the darkness as i can possibly have. the darkness provides cover, the darkness provides places to hide and the darkness provides comfort. darkness usually comes around dinner, but dinner would be too obvious.

Don't be afraid, the darkness you're in is no greater than the darkness inside your own body, they are two darknesses separated by a skin, i bet you've never thought of that, you carry a darkness about with you all the time and that doesn't frighten you...my dear chap, you have to learn to live with the darkness outside just as you learned to live with the darkness inside
Two Darkness Skins
As i glanced at the phraseology of the research report, dull and unfathomable to outsiders like me, i thought that if you have the ambition to become a villain, the first thing you should do is learn to be impenetrable. don’t act like blofeld—monocled and ostentatious. we journalists love writing about eccentrics. we hate writing about impenetrable, boring people. it makes us look bad: the duller the interviewee, the duller the prose. if you want to get away with wielding true, malevolent power, be boring.
Hate Writing Ambition
The bereaved cannot communicate with the unbereaved.
