Famous quotes containing the word sleeping:

Living and partly living,
Picking together the pieces,
Gathering faggots at nightfall,
Building a partial shelter,
For sleeping and eating and drinking and laughter.”

Lay couching, head on ground, with cat-like watch
When that the sleeping man should stir; for tis
The royal disposition of that beast
To prey on nothing that doth seem as dead.”
