Every day is morning

2026.10.11 · 09:09 AM

Every night when a person partially suspends sensory living, their soul or faculties recover their vigor, and their genius for meeting the new day makes one more attempt to achieve noble living to some degree.

All memorable events occur in the morning hours or in the morning atmosphere.

Poetry and art, and the most beautiful and excellent human activities, originate in those morning hours.

For someone who maintains elastic and vigorous thinking in step with the sun, the day is always morning.

-- Walden <Where I Lived, and What I Lived For>
