Man Asleep

Famous quotes containing the words man and/or asleep:

    To love one child and to love all children, whether living or dead—somewhere these two loves come together. To love a no-good but humble punk and to love an honest man who believes himself to be an honest man—somewhere these, too, come together.
    Marguerite Duras (b. 1914)

    Flow gently, sweet Afton, among thy green braes,
    Flow gently, sweet river, the theme of my lays;
    My Mary’s asleep by thy murmuring stream,
    Flow gently, sweet Afton, disturb not her dream.
    Robert Burns (1759–1796)
