Choose a letter: 
Friendship is the shadow of the evening, which increases with the setting sun of life.
Jean de La Fontaine, French Poet (1621-1695)
Sun's role in the grand scheme of development is to work on the runtime environment and the APIs. The tools we produce are much more for systems programmers, not enterprise developers.
John Fowler, American Politician
The Gospel having spread itself into Persia, the pagan priests, who worshipped the sun, were greatly alarmed, and dreaded the loss of that influence they had hitherto maintained over the people's minds and properties.
John Foxe, English Writer
At Sun, we have a special number you can call if there is something important happening.
James Frank, -
The conscious mind may be compared to a fountain playing in the sun and falling back into the great subterranean pool of subconscious from which it rises.

The sun, with all those planets revolving around it and dependent on it, can still ripen a bunch of grapes as if it had nothing else in the universe to do.
Galileo Galilei, Italian Scientist (1564-1642)
When I admire the wonders of a sunset or the beauty of the moon, my soul expands in the worship of the creator.
Mohandas Gandhi, Indian Leader (1869-1948)
There is no gilding of setting sun or glamor of poetry to light up the ferocious and endless toil of the farmers' wives.
Hamlin Garland, American Novelist (1860-1940)
I cannot think that we are useless or God would not have created us. There is one God looking down on us all. We are all the children of one God. The sun, the darkness, the winds are all listening to what we have to say.
Geronimo, Apache Statesman (1829-1909)
I was born on the prairies where the wind blew free and there was nothing to break the light of the sun. I was born where there were no enclosures.
Geronimo, Apache Statesman (1829-1909)
I was warmed by the sun, rocked by the winds and sheltered by the trees as other Indian babes. I was living peaceably when people began to speak bad of me. Now I can eat well, sleep well and be glad. I can go everywhere with a good feeling.
Geronimo, Apache Statesman (1829-1909)
Both parents were very encouraging - especially my father. My father thought the sun rose and set with me. Neither one had a musical background or any musical talent. They liked classical music, but neither could carry a tune.
Gordon Getty, American Businessman (1934-  )
Pain and foolishness lead to great bliss and complete knowledge, for Eternal Wisdom created nothing under the sun in vain.
Khalil Gibran, Poet (1883-1931)
You know, I think that allowing somebody, one mere person to believe that he or she is like, the vessel you know, like the font and the essence and the source of all divine, creative, unknowable, eternal mystery is just a smidge too much responsibility to put on one fragile, human psyche. It's like asking somebody to swallow the sun.
Elizabeth Gilbert, American Novelist (1969-  )
It's best not to stare at the sun during an eclipse.
Jeff Goldblum, American Actor (1952-  )
George Bush taking credit for the wall coming down is like the rooster taking credit for the sun rising.
Al Gore, American Vice President (1948-  )
Our present nuclear fusion reactors are classified by the methods used to support the nuclear fusion reaction, which takes place at a temperature much hotter than the surface of the Sun.
Wilson Greatbatch, Inventor
In America, with all of its evils and faults, you can still reach through the forest and see the sun. But we don't know yet whether that sun is rising or setting for our country.
Dick Gregory, American Comedian (1932-  )
I remarked constantly, just at sunset, in these latitudes, that the eastern horizon was brilliantly illuminated with a kind of mock sunset. This in a short time disappeared, to be soon succeeded by another similar in character, but more faint.
George Grey, New Zealander Leader (1812-1898)
I wouldn't believe him if he said the sun came up in the east.
Thomas Griffith, American Editor
