"But there is no substance in the evening glow. It's nothing but a joke, a meaningless, but impressive joke of form and light and colour. [...] Evening clouds are an insult to anything symmetric, but such destruction of order is closely connected with the break-up of something much more fundamental. If the serene white daytime cloud may be compared to moral exaltation, then these riotous colours have nothing to do with morality. [...] In other words, evening glow is expression. And expression alone is the function of the evening glow." Yukio Mishima, The Temple of Dawn.
