Famous quotes containing the words poor, sleep and/or quality:
“I am as poor as Job, my lord, but not so patient.”

“And the beauty
Of the moonlight
Falling there,
Falling
As sleep falls
In the innocent air.”
—Wallace Stevens (18791955)
“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 dont 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 (18221893)
