Men have conceived a twofold use of sleep; it is a refreshing of the body in this life, and a preparing of the soul for the next. John Donne English clergyman & poet (1572 - 1631) I believe it to be true that dreams are the true interpreters of our inclinations; but there is art required to sort and understand them. Michel de Montaigne French essayist (1533 - 1592) What is a kiss? Why this, as some approve:<br> The sure, sweet cement, glue, and lime of love. Robert Herrick English lyric poet (1591 - 1674) Virtue can only flourish among equals. Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley English novelist (1797 - 1851) Dictionaries are like watches; the worst is better than none, and the best cannot be expected to go quite true. Samuel Johnson English author, critic, & lexicographer (1709 - 1784) Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self-confidence. Robert Frost US poet (1874 - 1963) Look before you leap. Aesop Greek slave & fable author (620 BC - 560 BC) To me dreams are part of nature, which harbors no intention to deceive but expresses something as best it can. Carl Jung Swiss psychologist (1875 - 1961) Sleep is often the only occasion in which man cannot silence his conscience; we forget what we knew in our dream.
