...[O]n a great granite throne sits the God Memnon. All night long he watches the stars, and when the morning star shines he utters one cry of joy, and then he is silent.

Oscar Wilde  “The Happy Prince”

All poets and heroes, like Memnon, are the children of Aurora, and emit their music at sunrise... Morning is when I am awake and there is a dawn in me.

Henry David Thoreau  Walden

Only that day dawns to which we are awake. There is more day to dawn. The sun is but a morning star.

Henry David Thoreau  Walden

...I the heir of pain
A silent Memnon with blank lidless eyes
Wait for the light and music of those suns which never rise.

Oscar Wilde “Humanitad“
