Rachel Simon Quote

Ah, look at that sunrise! Tim says at the first stoplight, lifting his arms toward the windshield. Four billion sunrises, over the dinosaurs, the pharaohs, and now ours today. And no one’s ever the same. Isn’t it just the most remarkable thing? Each day is fresh and unique, yet each is also a link to every dawn all the way back to the Precambrian.
