The Bible (King James Version) on sleep

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it

It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.

When I woke up this morning my girlfriend asked me, ‘Did you sleep well?’ I said ‘No, I made a few mistakes.’

It is better to sleep on things beforehand than lie awake about them afterward.

Baltasar Gracián1601–1658

A few hours of mountain climbing turn a villain and a saint into two rather equal creature. Exhaustion is the shortest way to equality and fraternity, and liberty is added eventually by sleep.
