“I think, well, I've had a shit of a life, all things considered. It wasn't fair. Everyone I've ever loved is dead, and my leg hurts all the bloody time... But I think, any God that can do sunsets like that, a different one every night... 'Strewth, well, you've got to respect the old bastard, haven't you?”

“And I learned what is obvious to a child. That life is simply a collection of little lives, each lived one day at a time. That each day should be spent finding beauty in flowers and poetry and talking to animals. That a day spent with dreaming and sunsets and refreshing breezes cannot be bettered.”

“The setting sun burned the sky pink and orange in the same bright hues as surfers' bathing suits. It was beautiful deception, Bosch thought, as he drove north on the Hollywood Freeway to home. Sunsets did that here. Made you forget it was the smog that made their colors so brilliant, that behind every pretty picture there could be an ugly story.”

“One day," you said to me, "I saw the sunset forty-four times!"
And a little later you added:
"You know-- one loves the sunet, when one is so sad..."
"Were you so sad, then?" I asked, "on the day of the forty-four sunsets?"
But the little prince made no reply.”

“If man really is fashioned, more than anything else, in the image of God, then clearly it follows that there is nothing on earth so near to God as a human being. The conclusion is inescapable, that to be in the presence of even the meanest, lowest, most repulsive specimen of humanity of the world is still to be closer to God than when looking up into a starry sky or at a beautiful sunset. Certainly that is why there is nothing in the new testament about beautiful sunsets.- Mike Mason -Author of "The Mystery of Marriage”

“BEING LATE
From where do simplicity and ease
In the movement of heavenly bodies derive?
It is precision.
Sun is never late to rise upon the Earth,
Moon is never late to cause the tides,
Earth is never late to greet the Sun and the Moon;
Thus, accidents are not accidents
But precise arrivals at the wrong right time.
Love is almost never simple;
Too often, feelings arrive too soon,
Waiting for thoughts that often come too late.
I wanted, too, to be simple and precise
Like the Sun,
Like the Moon,
Like the Earth
But the Earth was booked
Billions of years in advance;
Designed to meet all desires,
All arrivals, all sunrises, all sunsets,
All departures,
So I will have to be a little bit late.”

“The sunset is nature's artistic warning to us, an ingenious reminder of the universe: Appreciate the light very well, because it can suddenly disappear from your life!”

“The sun rises for everyone, sets for everyone, it does not distinguish between good people and bad people, maybe we can call this injustice because it does not favor the good people, but maybe we can say this: Every day the sun gives the bad people a chance to be good!”

“The day does not end when the sun sets, nor does it end at midnight. The day ends when you are mentally done with that day, if not, that day continues and you are stuck with that day!”

“Sunsets here were more an experience than a sight. They marked the soul. Pierced it, rearranged things with all that shifting color and light, and sealed it up again, a little more whole than it was before. The streaks of color across the sky just now were no exception.”

“When the sun sets, you can forget about the sun because that scene is over, that play is over! Now a new time has begun, a new game has begun! Look at what the new game brings, what the new conditions are; don’t focus on the past, the sun is in the past! Now is the time to understand and experience the time of twilight and darkness and what they will bring to you!”

“Sanibel Island is an alluring paradox. A primordial landscape, buzzing with tourists. A tropical hideaway where storybook sunsets heal souls, and violent hurricanes destroy property. A cherished corner of Old Florida, in the midst of a modernizing metamorphosis. Where unfettered wildness thrives, even as ecological challenges mount. A dream place where I can explore the boundaries between coastal textures, the rhythm of nature, and the stuff of humankind; and create art that is honest and authentic.”

“The sun is setting! Those who long for the night are happy; those who do not want to leave the day are sad!”

“If you no longer have any interest in sunsets, it means that either the world has exhausted you and you no longer have the energy or time to look at the magnificence of nature, or you have become so engrossed in the nonsense of worldly affairs that you have forgotten the true beauty!”

“Sometimes the mornings are so beautiful that you don't want the evening to come, but then you remember the beauty of the sunset and say goodbye to the morning!”

“I was afraid of Los Angeles. The neon, the highways, the color of the sunset, the nearness of the desert, the sun so high.”

“The sun disappeared; the day fell asleep, the night awoke, the fireflies rejoiced in the darkness; the moon challenged the night; the wolf was angry at the moon for breaking the darkness; the leaves missed the sun; the shadows murmured the name of light, wanting to exist a million times; the star fell, its dagger stuck in the darkness; the owl and the bat cursed at dawn. So much happens when the sun goes down! Your thoughts will never end, if you think about every detail when the sun goes down!”
