Famous quotes containing the word asleep:
““... Or how should love be worth its pains were it not
That when he has fallen asleep within my arms,
Being wearied out, I love in man the child?
What can they know of love that do not know
She builds her nest upon a narrow ledge
Above a windy precipice?””
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“Old age: I fall asleep during the funerals of my friends.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
