History of the world in one day

It is said that each day recapitulates the history of the world, coming up out of darkness and cold into confused light and beginning warmth, consciousness blinking its eyes somewhere in midmorning, awakening thoughts a jumble of illogic and unattached emotion, and all speeding together toward the order of noontide, the slow poignant decline of dusk, the mystical vision of twilight, the end of entropy that is night once more.

- Roger Zelazny, Lords of Light
