Without light there is no darkness, so if it weren't for the sun, there would only be matinee shows on Broadway, and there would be no lower rates on long-distance calls after 11 PM because there would be no night. There would be no Eine Kleine Nachtmusik. The one benefit is that we nocturnal people would never have to wake up. But then, if we did wake up, we'd wake up to a reality where night would never come. Wait, wouldn't it always be night if there was no sun? Anyway, appreciate the sun, because otherwise the reverse of everything I just said would be true. Hmmmm... As I say, appreciate the sun."-Tak Okamoto
