The bright sweet smell of the Sun on every exposed square centimeter of metal contrasting with the creeping death-of-aroma on the other side. He lifted his hand and stared at it, counting the fingers. Hot-hot-hot-turning, putting each finger, one by one, into the shadow of the others and the hot slowly dying in a change in tactility that made him feel the clean, comfortable vacuum. Yet not entirely vacuum. He straightened and lifted both arms over his head, stretching them out, and the sensitive spots on either wrist felt the vapors- the thin, faint touch of tin and lead rolling through the cloy of mercury. The thicker taste rose from his feet; the silicates of each variety, marked by the clear separate-and-together touch and tang of each metal ion. He moved one foot slowly through the crunchy, caked dust, and felt the changes like a soft, not quite random symphony. And over all the Sun. He looked up at it, large and fat and bright and hot, and heard its joy. He watched the slow rise of prominences around its rim and listened to the crackling sound of each; and to the other happy noises over the broad face. When he dimmed the background light, the red of the rising wisps of hydrogen showed in bursts of mellow contralto, and the deep bass of the spots amid the muted whistling of the wispy, moving faculae, and the occasional thin keening of a flare, the ping-pong ticking of gamma rays and cosmic particles, and over all in every direction the soft, fainting, and ever-renewed sigh of the Sun's substance rising and retreating forever in a cosmic wind which reached out and bathed him in glory. He jumped, and rose slowly in the air with a freedom he had never felt, and jumped again when he landed, and ran, and jumped, and ran again, with a body that responded perfectly to this glorious world, this paradise in which he found himself.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Isaac Asimov" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/isaac-asimov/the-sun-burned-down-in-a-warm-contrasting-world-of-white-and-black-of/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/4a9/isaac-asimov-309_sun-burned_the-sun-burned-down-in-a-warm-contrastin_2889718.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/4a9/isaac-asimov-309_sun-burned_the-sun-burned-down-in-a-warm-contrastin_2889718.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/4a9/isaac-asimov-309_sun-burned_the-sun-burned-down-in-a-warm-contrastin_2889718.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“The Sun burned down in a warm contrasting world of white and black, of white Sun against black sky and white…” — Isaac Asimov", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } } ] }, { "@type": "CollectionPage", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/sun-burned/#webpage", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/sun-burned/", "name": "Sun Burned Quotes", "isPartOf": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#website" }, "mainEntity": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/sun-burned/#itemlist" }, "primaryImageOfPage": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/624/pablo-neruda-435_burned_sometimes-a-piece-of-sun-burned-like-a-c_2687572.jpg" }, "description": "Browse 12 Sun Burned quotes by 10 authors.
