《论衡·卷十一·说日篇》
儒者有人认为早晨太阳出来和傍晚落下时离人近，太阳正中时离人远；又有人认为太阳正中时离人近，日出日落时离人远。
儒者或以旦暮日出入为近，日中为远；或以日中为近，日出入为远。
Some Confucian scholars believe that the sun is close to the people in the morning when it rises and in the evening when it sets, and that it is distant from the people when it is at noon; while others believe that the sun is close to the people when it is at noon, and that it is distant from the people when it rises and sets.
