When the mother died, he took the port-wine business.''The port-wine business!' cried Nicholas.'Drinking port-wine with the clown,' said the manager; 'but he was greedy, and one night bit off the bowl of the glass, and choked himself, so his vulgarity was the death of him at last.

And he had, of course, been slightly drunk. In other words, all the usual conditions that bring on... Douglas Adams

... For such as truly love the world, a thousand years would fade like the dream of one night. Yoshida Kenko
Why don't you ever whip me?" she pouted one night."Because I haven't the time," he snapped at her impatiently. "I haven't the time. Don't you know there's a parade going on? Joseph Heller
Virginia Woolf quote: "There was a star riding through clouds one night, & I said to..."
There was a star riding through clouds one night, & I said to the star, 'Consume me'. Virginia Woolf

Seems like the cold would never go away and winter would be like the bottom of my feet but then it is gone in one night and in its place comes the sun so large and laughable. Sherman Alexie
When you start thinking about what your life was like 10 years ago--and not in general terms, but in highly specific detail--it's disturbing to realize how certain elements of your being are completely dead. They die long before you do. It's astonishing to consider all the things from your past that used to happen all the time but (a) never happen anymore, and (b) never even cross your mind.
