“It was only a sunny smile, and little it cost in the giving, but like morning light it scattered the night and made the day worth living.”

“Weather forecast for tonight: dark. Continued dark overnight, with widely scattered light by morning.”

“.. the light suggests no particular time of day or night [in the paintings of Paul Cézanne ]; it is not appropriated from morning or afternoon, sunlight or shadow.”

“I remember everything

And I remember every night
Your ocean eyes of blue
How I miss you in the morning light
Like roses miss the dew”

drawing the dark night across the grain-giving earth.”

“And I watered it in fears,
Night and morning with my tears;
And I sunned it with smiles,
And with soft deceitful wiles.”
