“Promises are like the full moon, if they are not kept at once they diminish day by day”

Albert Camus
“The day, water, sun, moon, night - I do not have to purchase these things with money.”

Margo Kaufman
“No sun - no moon! / No morn - no noon - / No dawn - no dusk - no proper time of day -”

“There's night and day, brother, both sweet things; sun, moon, and stars, brother, all sweet things; there's likewise a wind on the heath. Life is very sweet, brother; who would wish to die?”
George Borrow
“And in the day of the new moon it shall be a young bullock without blemish, and six lambs, and a ram: they shall be without blemish.”
