"They both smiled, standing there. They both felt a common hilarity, excited by the moving waves; and then by the swift cutting race of a sailing boat, which, having sliced a curve in the bay, stopped shivered; let its sails drop down; and then, with a natural instinct to complete the picture, after this swift movement, both oof themlooked at the dunes far aaway, and instead of merriment felt come over them some sadness- because the thing was completed partly, and partly because distant views seem to outlast by a million years (Lily thought) the gazer and to be communing already with a sky which beholds an earth entirely at rest."

_To the Lighthouse_, V Woolf
