Sunset

“Because I can count on my fingers the number of sunsets I have left, and I don't want to miss any of them.” 
― Suzanne CollinsCatching Fire

“The setting sun burned the sky pink and orange in the same bright hues as surfers' bathing suits. It was beautiful deception, Bosch thought, as he drove north on the Hollywood Freeway to home. Sunsets did that here. Made you forget it was the smog that made their colors so brilliant, that behind every pretty picture there could be an ugly story.” 
― Michael ConnellyThe Black Echo

“One day," you said to me, "I saw the sunset forty-four times!"

And a little later you added:

"You know-- one loves the sunet, when one is so sad..."

"Were you so sad, then?" I asked, "on the day of the forty-four sunsets?"

But the little prince made no reply.” 
― Antoine de Saint-ExupéryThe Little Prince
