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.

To be in a band with the other founding members that never sleep is inspiring. Questlove put out five books a year and deejays every night and still do the same day job that I do, only with more responsibility. It drives me to find a way to juggle it.
