“Time for bed.” I held my fist out. One by one, my flock stacked theirs on top, and then we headed up into the trees to sleep the sleep of the innocent. Well, okay, maybe not so innocent. But the sleep of the much less guilty than others, for sure.”

“I was in my bed trying to figure out why sometimes you can wake up and go back to sleep and other times you can't”

“Sleep is a death; oh, make me try
By sleeping what it is to die,
And as gently lay my head
On my grave as now my bed.”

“My time I divide as follows: the one half I sleep; the other half I dream. I never dream when I sleep; that would be a shame, because to sleep is the height of genius.”

“I hope to die in my sleep, when the time comes, and I hope it will be in the beautiful big brass bed in my New Orleans apartment, the bed which is associated with so much love.”

“One should always sleep in all of one's guest beds, to make sure that they are comfortable.”

“When I sleep I sleep and do not dream because it is as well that I am what I seem when I am in my bed and dream.”

“How innocent, how beautiful thy sleep!
Sweet one, 'tis peace and joy to gaze on thee!”

“Better to sleep in an uncomfortable bed free, than sleep in a comfortable bed unfree.”

“I haven't been to sleep for over a year. That's why I go to bed early. One needs more rest if one doesn't sleep.”
