People of the night

 Lying on the veranda at the corner of the house, Flint thought how quickly a man takes on the qualities of darkness! Men who live by night, the soldier, the thief, the traveler by night, the vagabond - theirs is a different way of thinking, and they do not fear the dark now what may come upon them by night because they themelves are of the night, a part of it.

(from Flint, by Louis L'Amour)
