All civilized people see the day beginning at dawn or a little after or a long time after or whatever time their work begins this they lengthen according to their work, during what they call 'all day long' and end it when they close their eyes. It is they who say the days are long. On the contrary, the days are round.
Jean Giono

Jean Giono
