“I got a statistic for you right now. Grab your
pencil, Doug. There are five billion trees in the world. I looked it up. Under
every tree is a shadow, right? So, then, what makes night? I'll tell you:
shadows crawling out from under five billion trees! Think of it! Shadows
running around in the air, muddying the waters you might say. If only we could
figure a way to keep those darn five billion shadows under those trees, we
could stay up half the night, Doug, because there'd be no night!”
― Ray Bradbury, Dandelion Wine |
