Dwarven Philosophical works:
The Prince, by Urist McMachiavelli, on how to succesfully rule a fortress.

It should be called "The Noble"

Well treat me like the disease like the rats and the fleas, A-ha-ha! A-ha-ha!
Well treat me like the sea oh so salty and mean, A-ha-ha! A-ha-ha!
Let's shake hands if you want but soon both hands are gone, A-ha-ha!
Cut me down like a tree like the lumber or weeds, well discard who you please like the leaves off a tree. Drag me out of the sea and then teach me to breath. Give me forced health till I wish death on myself. Ah! Ha! Ha!
March on! March on! March on! March on! MARCH ON!

Alternately: The Brick Testament. It's a really fun look at what the bible would look like if interpreted literally. With Legos.

Those lucky dwarves, despite the risk of being stabbed, shots, poisoned, eaten, mauled, enslaved, eviscerated or involved in accidents... at least they don’t have to worry about immediate dangers like the heat death of the universe.

Do dwarves even understand the concept of the period of day called twilight? Do they understand night time? It's permanent day in DF so far as we know.

Which is obviously done for gameplay purposes. Toady could bring in nighttime, but at the rate the game goes it would be lightdarklightdarklightdark. Which would be annoying.

The [NOCTURNAL], [DIURNAL], [CREPUSCULAR] tags would suggest that night and day are in the game, we just don't see it.
