““Many seem to think that realities are harsher during the waning hours of the night—that in the daylight, the horrors are not so terrible and the fears are not so difficult to bear. I myself have always felt the opposite to be true. To me, the night has a sort of illusory quality to it—it permits the self-deception that one’s troubles are only a nightmare and that all will be set right with a little sleep and fresh perspective. To me, it is when the morning sun rises that everything becomes actual, solid, inescapable… It is a harder task by far to deny one’s true reality under the unforgiving light of day.””
