Each day is a little life: every waking and rising a little birth, every fresh morning a little youth, every going to rest and sleep a little death.
Arthur Schopenhauer

Ludwig Wittgenstein

God gave us faculties for our use; each of them will receive its proper reward. Then do not let us try to charm them to sleep, but permit them to do their work until divinely called to something higher.
Saint Teresa of Avila

Men who are unhappy, like men who sleep badly, are always proud of the fact.
Bertrand Russell

One who never turned his back but marched breast forward, never doubted clouds would break, Never dreamed, though right were worsted, wrong would triumph, Held we fall to rise, are baffled to fight better, sleep to wake.
Robert Browning

For a man who has done his natural duty, death is as natural as sleep.

A professor is someone who talks in someone else's sleep.
W. H. Auden

Those who have compared our life to a dream were right... we were sleeping wake, and waking sleep.
Michel de Montaigne

He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God.
Aeschylus

We all dream; we do not understand our dreams, yet we act as if nothing strange goes on in our sleep minds, strange at least by comparison with the logical, purposeful doings of our minds when we are awake.
Erich Fromm

Indolence is the sleep of the mind.
Luc de Clapier

Don't think that because you haven't heard from me for a while that I went to sleep. I am still here, like a spirit roaming the night. Thirsty, hungry, seldom stopping to rest.
Spike Lee

It is better to sleep on things beforehand than lie awake about them afterwards.
Baltasar Gracian

The dignity of the artist lies in his duty of keeping awake the sense of wonder in the world. In this long vigil he often has to vary his methods of stimulation; but in this long vigil he is also himself striving against a continual tendency to sleep.
Marc Chagall

True silence is the rest of the mind, and is to the spirit what sleep is to the body, nourishment and refreshment.
William Penn
