Sleep Quotes

A collection of sleep quotes and sleep and sleeping quotations

Here is a collection of sleep quotes. sleep is very important to me - I'm not unusual in this, I know, of course, who doesn't sleep? but I have always enjoyed and valued my sleep and never felt guilty about it. My current sleep regime is to nap in the afternoon for a couple of hours and be awake in the early hours of the morning to write - works for me. Enjoy the sleep quotes here.

I was inspired to write and publish this sleep quotes page on receiving a gift of a good friend. This friend had thought of me when they were away from home working, and brought me a book of sleep quotes as a gift on their return.
