Another day Quote by Glen Duncan
““The rain had stopped and the sky was absurdly pretty, a single layer of floury cloudlets pinked and peached by the rising sun. Only the juvenile, the mad, and the newly in love noticed. The rest of the city got its head down and ploughed tearily into another day of neurosis.””
About This Quote
Source Novel: The Last Werewolf by Glen Duncan, 2011
A fleeting moment of beauty is only noticed by those who are youthful, mad, or in love; others ignore it, consumed by routine anxieties.
In simple terms: Only the young, crazy, or lovers see brief beauty; others stay stuck in neurosis.
