There is nothing more beautiful than the beauty of the woods before dawn.
Raymond Carver
While he was struggling with such words and such thoughts, something happened around him; something which he had described many times and which he had read in a thousand books, but which he had never seen. A faint, pale light peeked through the thick foliage, even more mysterious than the moonlight. She entered through the countless doors and windows of the woods, shy and silent, but confident. His white robe streaked with gold and purple; his name was: alba.
Gilbert Keith Chesterton
Dawn and day resumed their place, and the rising sun sent warm waves of yellow mist that illuminated the path. The leaves laughed in the sun, and their laughter shook the branches until they became like a school of girls in the fairy kingdom.
Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald
You cannot touch dawn if you have not walked the paths of the night.
Khalil Gibran
Dawn is a kind of whitening of the sky; a kind of renewal.
Another day; another Friday; another twenty of March, January, or September. Another general awakening.
Virginia Woolf
I embraced the summer dawn.
Nothing was still moving in the front of the buildings. The water was dead. The shadow fields did not leave the forest road. I walked, awakening the warm, warm breaths, and the stones looked, and the wings rose noiselessly. The first undertaking was, in the path already full of fresh and dull splendor, a flower that told me its name.
Arthur Rimbaud

Come on, I told her. Because? Look outside, it's already dawn. So what? [...] It's the right light to go home, it's made for that. Light? There is no better light to feel clean. Let's go.
Alessandro Baricco
To all it is due the morning, to some the night. The light of dawn is only a select few.

When a sunrise or sunset no longer gives us emotions, it means that the soul is sick.
Roberto Gervaso
It is the time when things lose the consistency of shadow that accompanied them in the night and gradually regain their colors, but in the meantime they cross like an uncertain limbo, barely touched and almost haloed by the light: the hour in which less one is sure of the existence of the world
Italo Calvino
Sunrise. Bedtime for reasonable men. Some old people, on the other hand, prefer to get up at that time, take a cold bath and a long walk on an empty stomach and mortify the meat in another way. They proudly attribute their vigor and age to these healthy habits. In reality they are still alive and well not in virtue, but in spite of their habits. The reason there are only very robust people who have adopted this course of action is that everyone else who has tried is dead.
Ambrose Bierce
Sweet is the dawn that illuminates the lovers.
William Shakespeare
Not knowing when the dawn will come
I leave every door open.
Emily Dickinson
The white sky announced a colorless dawn. The early morning is always silent, but only certain silences are synonymous with absence, others are rich in complicity.
Marc Levy
Each day is different from the other, each dawn brings with it its special miracle, its magical moment, in which past universes are destroyed and new stars are born. The Navajo, in fact, teach their children that every morning the rising sun is a new sun. It is born every day, it lives only for that day, it dies in the evening and it will never come back. They say to their little ones: The sun has only this day, one day. Live your life well so the sun hasn't wasted its precious time.
Paulo Coelho
Everyone dreams to himself,
he knows so much that in the dawn he will open his eyes wide.
Cesare Pavese
It is getting darker just before dawn.
Thomas Fuller
The time just before dawn contains more energy than all hours of the day. This helped me to become an early riser and a precocious action man.
Anonymous
Each dawn has its doubts.
Alda Merini
Live every day as if you were to die at dawn the next day. And then face each new dawn as if it were a new creation, and live for it joyfully. And never think about the past, no regrets, ever!
Robert A. Heinlein
The dawn sun is more delicate, more tender. He is almost afraid of disturbing. It is not like the setting sun that does not ask for permission and enters the rooms of your heart and makes them vibrate with nostalgia and melancholy.
Fabrizio Caramagna
Only from time to time do we have the certainty of living long, very long, perhaps even forever. Sometimes it happens when we get up at dawn, and we go out at that tender and solemn hour, alone.
Frances Hodgson Burnett
Dawn has its own mysterious grandeur that is made up of a residue of a dream and a principle of thought.
Victor Hugo
I listened to the sound of the waves breaking on the sand as the sun rose on the horizon. In step with the sun, hidden emotions have awakened, feelings hidden behind false hopes. With the sun my soul woke up.

There is a moment in each dawn when the light is as if suspended; a magical moment where anything can happen. Creation holds its breath.

Take me off this night, make me dawn.
Strip me of fears, dress me with possibility.
Only then will my eyes truly see.
Fabrizio Caramagna
The day is not born in all parts of the world,
but only in secret,
where no one sees it.
From nothing it becomes a ripple of life,
from darkness it becomes a path,
from night it becomes horizon.
Guatan Tavara
The beauty of life
is to be there
this morning too
and sip
the first rays of light
as if it were
a miracle.
E. Pearlman
Smile my friend, it's dawn!
Robin Williams
Rise, my heart. Rise and move together with the dawn. For the night has passed and the fears of the night have vanished with their black marks. Arise, my heart, and raise your voice in a song; since whoever does not join in singing with the dawn is only a child of darkness.
Kahlil Gibran

Look at the dawn that teaches us to smile, it almost seems to invite us to be reborn. Everything begins, grows old, changes shape, love transforms everything. The mood of a dream is forgotten over time.

you are clear as dawn,
you are fresh as air.

White are the towers that he finally touched

It is said that now and it is not legend
In an August dawn, the beautiful Cristalda
Come up from the wave to live again
The legend of Cristalda and Pizzomunno, Max Gazzè
And if the heart beats fast it won't stop
And the dawn and love is born with the sun like this
And at dawn the sun will tell you that it is
Beautiful and impossible, Gianna Nannini
On the radio talking
I who drive following the lights of dawn
High tide, Antonello Venditti
Dawn is already here
As normal as it is to see her return
It enlightens me with novelty
It gives me a chance
The crystal slipper
That you lost a night in the race
You can wait for someone to look for you
Or continue barefoot
In the moon that lights up as a reflection
There is a part that always remains dark
Some say it's the part where it is now
And nature is revealed forever.
The sunrise, Jovanotti
