“Stay in bed when absent a sense of purpose.”

“The rationale for springing out our bed each morning is a sense of purpose. Purpose is the compass that guides us through the decision-making process and aids in the development of our behavior and actions. Lacking a sense of purpose is the equivalent of a feather thrown into a gusty wind.”

“Then the children went to bed, or at least went upstairs, and the men joined the women for a cigarette on the porch, absently picking ticks engorged like grapes off the sleeping dogs. And when the men kissed the women good night, and their weekend whiskers scratched the women's cheeks, the women did not think shave, they thought stay.”

“Don't stay in bed, unless you can make money in bed.”

“There is an alternative to war. It's staying in bed and growing your hair.”

“Never go to bed angry, stay up and fight.”

“Every day you must stay true to your purpose, despite snow or rain. When your purpose is clear, your life will have meaning.”

“It's only worth staying in bed if you're young and in good company.”

“If you don't have massive dreams, you might as well stay in bed.”

“The heart may think it knows better: The senses know that absence blots people out. We have really no absent friends.”
