Slept Quotes

For some nights I slept profoundly; but still every morning I felt the same lassitude, and a languor weighed upon me all day. I felt myself a changed girl. A strange melancholy was stealing over me, a melancholy that I would not have interrupted. Dim thoughts of death began to open, and an idea that I was slowly sinking took gentle, and, somehow, not unwelcome possession of me. If it was sad, the tone of mind which this induced was also sweet. Whatever it might be, my soul acquiesced in it Picture Quote #1

Hinged to forgetfulness like a door, she slowly closed out of sight, and she was the woman I loved, but too many times she slept like a mechanical deer in my caresses, and I ached in the metal silence of her dreams Picture Quote #1

I cried until my eyes swelled shut, and then I slept, a black, dreamless sleep from which I awoke amazingly refreshed, at least until I remembered Picture Quote #1

Poppy was now almost well. She still slept more than usual, but when she wasn’t sleeping she tromped around the doctor’s house pulling spoons off the table and spilling cups of water and crumpling pages of books. That is, she was almost her old self Picture Quote #1

I slept peacefully that night, feeling exultant and determined. Little did I know that I was making the most common and the most painful mistake women have made all throughout the ages: to naively think that with their love they can change the man they love Picture Quote #1

They said no one knew a man as well as a woman who slept with him Picture Quote #1

We’d traveled, we’d been to lots of parties, lots of movies and concerts, we’d slept in. We’d done all those things that people with children seem to miss so passionately. We didn’t want those things anymore. We wanted a baby Picture Quote #1

The celebrity world can be so ugly. Everyone seems to have slept with everyone else and it’s some sort of strange weird cycle. I don’t want to get into that Picture Quote #1

She was luxuriously tired and her muscles felt sore from the unaccustomed strain of riding astride. Nothing had ever tasted so good as the cool golden ale she swallowed from a pewter tankard. She slept deeply that night and longer than she had intended Picture Quote #1

He may have gone to bed three hours ago, but he knows who he is playing. You can rest assured that he hasn’t slept a wink Picture Quote #1

All our civilization is based on invention; before invention, men lived on fruits and nuts and pine cones and slept in caves Picture Quote #1

If there is any kind of legitimate ostalgia, it’s for everything we’ve never even seen, the women we’ve never slept with, never dreamed of, the friends we haven’t made, the books we’ve never read, all the food steaming in the pots we’ve never eaten out of. That’s the only real kind of nostalgia there is Picture Quote #1

In the end dreams became his life, and his whole life thereafter took a strange turn: one might say he slept while waking and watched while asleep Picture Quote #1

He went out with a variety of women, slept with some of them, hated the whole meaningless process. Drinks, dinners, plays and concerts and gallery openings... He grew to despise the rigid formality of dating, missed the easy familiarity of simply being with someone, sharing friendly silences and unforced laughter Picture Quote #1

We are rag dolls made out of many ages and skins, changelings who have slept in wood nests, and hissed in the uncouth guise of waddling amphibians. We have played such roles for infinitely longer ages than we have been human. Our identity is a dream. We are process, not reality Picture Quote #1

Frightened of my futureless life, scared by my foolish anxieties, unable to see ahead and aiming nowhere, I continued ceaselessly living my ridiculously idiotic life. I was beset on all sides by invisible worries. So, I shut myself in and slept. I slept until sleep exhausted me. Spring passed, summer ended, fall came, and then winter arrived. Then, it turned into another gentle spring Picture Quote #1

When I was pregnant, a few of my friends told me that their babies slept in bed with them. I remember thinking how crazy that was. Then I started reading up on it and decided it was something I actually wanted to try Picture Quote #1

The birds brought seeds and flowers and bits of brightly colored string and placed them in her hair while she slept so she would remember the wild joy of spring when she finally awoke Picture Quote #1

When I got inside, I just sort of stood there. There’s nothing stranger than the smell of someone else’s house. The scent goes right to your stomach. Mary’s house smelled like lemon furniture polish and oatmeal cookies and logs in a fireplace. For some reason it made me want to curl up in the fetal position. I could have slept right there on their kitchen table Picture Quote #1

I haven’t slept properly for 12 years because of this bloody game. I don’t think you do in a competitive game. You toss and turn and you don’t sleep Picture Quote #1

Women get hit with a double whammy. If they’re attractive, they’re presumed to have slept their way to the top. If they’re unattractive, they are presumed to have chosen a profession because they could not get a man Picture Quote #1

I also had nightmares. Somehow all the feelings I didn’t feel when each thing had actually happened to me I did feel when I slept Picture Quote #1

I was photographing every meal I ate, every person I met, every waiter or waitress who served me, every bed I slept in, every toilet I used Picture Quote #1

Death was a beginning and not an end; it was the morning of the spirit. Tired bodies lay down to sleep and their souls wakened to the morning, rested; the first fruits of them that slept Picture Quote #1

Who hasn’t slept in an empty bed sometimes, longing for the embrace of another person on the achingly short trip to the grave? Picture Quote #1

I remember as a little boy I ate one meal a day and sometimes slept in the street. I will never forget that and it inspires me to fight hard, stay strong and remember all the people of my country, trying to achieve better for themselves Picture Quote #1

If you got up this morning and had fruits for breakfast, it was probably picked by the bent back of an immigrant worker. If you slept in a hotel or motel of the nation, you probably had your room done by an immigrant worker Picture Quote #1

People who say that small things don’t bother them have never slept in a room with a mosquito Picture Quote #1

The world changed while I slept, and much to my surprise, no one had consulted me Picture Quote #1
