When You Feel There Is No Escape, That's When You Must.



(Went to the movie for a few hours of escapes.)



“I am an excitable person who only understands life lyrically, musically, in whom feelings are much stronger as reason. I am so thirsty for the marvelous that only the marvelous has power over me. Anything I can not transform into something marvelous, I let go. Reality doesn't impress me. I only believe in intoxication, in ecstasy, and when ordinary life shackles me, I escape, one way or another. No more walls.”

- Anais Nin


When the walls close in, make your escape...

“Maybe you don't like your job, maybe you didn't get enough sleep, well nobody likes their job, nobody got enough sleep. Maybe you just had the worst day of your life, but you know, there's no escape, there's no excuse, so just suck up and be nice.”

- Ani Difranco


There is no escape if you choose to sink in the quicksand of self-pity,
But even quicksand can't hold you if you can grow wings and fly away.

We Cannot Forget Sleep In Food.



(Three days after returning home, I'm still sleep deprived.)


Sleep that knits up the ravelled sleave of care
The death of each day's life, sore labour's bath
Balm of hurt minds, great nature's second course,
Chief nourisher in life's feast.

- William Shakespeare, Macbeth


We can forget food in sleep,
But we cannot forget sleep in food.

Life is something that happens when you can't get to sleep.

- Fran Lebowitz


Life is hazy motion, a blur.
Life is food without taste.
Life is emotion without edge.
Life is meaningless without sleep.

Sleep


Some praise the Lord for Light,
The living spark;
I thank God for the Night
The healing dark.

- Robert William Service, "Weary", first lines


Those that can’t embrace the dark will curse the light.

Sleeping alone, except under doctor's orders, does much harm. Children will tell you how lonely it is sleeping alone. If possible, you should always sleep with someone you love. You both recharge your mutual batteries free of charge.

- Marlene Dietrich, 1962



"I don’t like to sleep alone. No one does. Do you?"
