Quotes About Twilight
O, may you look, full moon that shines, On my pain for this last time: So many midnights from my desk, I have seen you, keeping watch: When over my books and paper, [390] Saddest friend, you appear! Ah! If on the mountain height I might stand in your sweet light, Float with spirits in mountain caves, Swim the meadows in twilight' waves, [395] Free from the smoke of knowledge too, Bathe in your health-giving dew!
~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Western culture is in its twilight; there is a dark age ahead; and while college-humanities fads and 'secular-progressive values' have certainly done much damage, they are symptoms, not causes—fragments of junk sucked into a vacuum.

We glided into Budapest at twilight, the city poured over with a viscous glowing blue, lights already blazing on the splendid Western bridges. Upside-down electronic billboards were reflected in the river, advertising Tuborg beer and Minolta cameras.

Era l'ora che turba il cuore; quell'ora in cui, mancando la luce, le cose e le anime si sentono libere, quasi, da una vigilanza fastidiosa; i monti paiono coricarsi a grande agio sul piano, le campagne dilagano sopra i villaggi e casali, le ombre pigliano corpo, i corpi sfumano in ombra, nel cuore umano affondano le impressioni, i pensieri del presente, e vien su un movimento confuso di ricordanze lontane, di fantasmi che inteneriscono e fanno sospirare in silenzio.

Segundo, são as tristezas de crepúsculo. O crepúsculo é triste, naturalmente. Não, não há perda nenhuma. Tudo está certo. Não há razões para ficar triste. A despeito disso, no crepúsculo a gente fica. Talvez porque o crepúsculo seja uma metáfora do que é a vida: a beleza efêmera das cores que vão mergulhando no escuro da noite.
