There's always a paradise that needs to be built. That vow is like the sun in the sky — perhaps I'll melt and fall before reaching it... But some hardships I must endure.

Overview
Sunday is the former head of the Oak Family. He was the organizer of the Charmony Festival and a representative of The Family of Penacony.
Sunday comes off as a dignified, benevolent, and rational individual. He is revered, seemingly determined and just. However, he is also prideful and cunning, willing to manipulate and lie in order to reach his goal of granting Robin's wish of a world where everyone can attain peace.
He believes that a society of "survival of the fittest" is not capable of reaching true happiness, and thus wished to use the Order to create a dream where people were free from the harshness of reality at the cost of never waking up. His intentions are not fueled by malice, as he genuinely wishes to protect people from suffering, simply his perspective on humanity and human nature is pessimistic. He believes that people have an innate desire to escape from their pain, and acknowledges that the reality he wishes for is only an escape. However, he does not view escaping reality as something to be ashamed of, despite the fact that people would not be able to grow from their struggles in a painless dream.
His beliefs are likely the result of the Dreammaster indoctrinating him into following the Order from a young age, as Robin notes the scripture in his diary are not things she was taught.

About Other Characters
This part is about what Sunday thinks about the other characters in Honkai: Star Rail.
I rarely discuss my worries with Robin. As the older brother, I should bear more responsibilities. The dark side of adulthood should not be brought back into our home.
As children, we once made a wish together for "everyone to be happy"... Yet, the wish remains unfulfilled, and I already owe her so much... Perhaps at some point, I became one of her worries.
He disguised himself with a superficial facade and gave us a grand performance. A respectable opponent. If there's still a chance for another clash on stage, I look forward to it.
Dullness and confusion are universal ailments. If not for our opposing positions, the professor and I would be able to get along.
We were once adversaries, but his steadfast will and unwavering beliefs deserve my utmost respect.
When the flames of an ideal are ignited within a person, they leave an indelible mark. That man must have a past worthy of being called "heroic."
The Trailblaze is not a solitary pursuit but a trajectory formed by generations connecting with each other... It's a path worthy of admiration.
Wisdom has always had more than one face. Contemplation is a hallmark of intelligence, but so are quick thinking and intuition.
Not everyone can move beyond their past. But once a person comes out of the fog, their stride will undoubtedly become more resolute.
