Sleep Quotes
Rest, routine, and the odd things said half-asleep.
This sleep quotes collection is refreshingly ordinary: sleep-talking material for jokes, a strict weekday sleep schedule, sleeping on the floor of a plane to hear the engine, and the specific comfort of stretching out diagonally across the mattress when no one's there to object. See Day for the other half of the routine.
