Wake

Famous quotes containing the word wake:

“The world of men is dreaming, it has gone mad in its sleep, and a snake is strangling it, but it can’t wake up.”

The Heaven which I imagine, or a Hell

I know not.”

Who went to church with his hat on.

“With my hat on my head,
I shall know that it hasn’t been sat on.””
