Nathaniel Hawthorne quote card with photo of a sunset on Herring Cove Beach, Cape Cod National Seashore. 

"The east puts on its immemorial blush, although no human eye is gazing at it; for all the phenomena of the natural world renew themselves, in spite of the solitude that now broods around the globe." The New Adam and Eve, Mosses from an Old Manse ~ Nathaniel Hawthorne
