Famous quotes containing the words poor, sleep and/or quality:
“Just as poor families have dutiful children, so too there are loyal ministers in troubled times.”
—Chinese proverb.
“There dwell the children of the dark Night, the dread gods Sleep and Death.”
—Hesiod (c. 8th century B.C.)
“I am not naturally ... “A bag of wind”; yet ... I mean deliberately and decidedly “to cut” in future all my old ideas on this head. I don’t think modesty “pays.” It is a good quality in a family, it is a domestic virtue, it makes a home happy after you have got a home, but it is not potent in getting homes. It is not a money-maker, neither is it lucky in gaining a reputation. I am of the impression that gaseous bodies do better.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
