No man is greater than his respect for sleep.
Man is a victim of dope in the incurable form of hope.
God in His wisdom made the fly And then forgot to tell us why.
The only incurable troubles of the rich are the troubles that money can't cure, Which is a kind of trouble that is even more troublesome if you are poor.
Some one invented the telephone, And interrupted a nation's slumbers, Ringing wrong but similar numbers.
Sleep is perverse as human nature, Sleep is perverse as legislature.... So people who go to bed to sleep Must count French premiers or sheep, And people who ought to arise from bed Yawn and go back to sleep instead.
