All dust is the same dust. Temporarily separated to go peacefully and enjoy the eternal nap. (Dejan Stojanovic)
But the important thing is to lie down and fall asleep. That little nap means you wake up fresh again and can continue. View quote
James Levine
I wouldn't say I was grumpy. It's more pathological - I have seismic tantrums. I get red in the face and cry at least three times a week, and I have to lie down and have a nap afterwards. View quote
Jenny Eclair
Finally, you get the job, and you think you'll be dancing on the ceiling, but I just wanted to go take a nap. It was just like a weight had been lifted off or something. View quote
Josh Duhamel
In a first pregnancy, you don't have a child yet, so you can nap and see movies and exercise. The notion of 'baby' is abstract. You look at the ultrasound and don't really understand that the creature you're seeing is soon going to be your roommate. View quote

With two kids it's hard to find down time to write so I often write during their nap time. View quote
Tori Spelling
How I began to write is different than how I became a writer. They are two different things. Many people write but they do not become writers. To become a writer is a job. It involves planning and it affects all parts of your life. Even what you eat-being a writer means not eating food with too much rich sauce to avoid taking a long afternoon nap! It's like being a professional athlete. And a writer must choose between being a sprinter who writes a book, and being a writer who creates an oeuvre. If you want to create an oeuvre, you have to be careful not to put all your energy into the first book. You have to have a vision for the long term... (Dany Laferrière)
When the going gets tough, the tough take a nap. View quote
Tom Hodgkinson
I have never been impressed by the formal schools of ethics. I had sampled them - public libraries are a ready source of recreation for an actor short of cash - but I had found them as poor in vitamins as a mother-in-law's kiss. Given time and plenty of paper, a philosopher can prove anything. I had the same contempt for the moral instruction handed to most children. Much of it is prattle and the parts they really seem to mean are dedicated to the sacred proposition that a "good” child is one who does not disturb mother's nap and a "good” man is one who achieves a muscular bank account without getting caught. No, thanks! View quote
Robert A. Heinlein
Be a child again. Flirt. Giggle. Dip your cookies in your milk. Take a nap. Say you're sorry if you hurt someone. Chase a butterfly. Be a child again. View quote
Max Lucado
Sometimes I try to take a nap before shows. That clears my head. View quote
Louis C.K.
A thousand years a poor man watched Before the gate of Paradise: But while one little nap he snatched, It oped and shut. Ah! was he wise? View quote
William R. Alger
There's less critical thinking going on in this country on a Main Street level - forget about the media - than ever before. We've never needed people to think more critically than now, and they've taken a big nap. View quote
Alec Baldwin
After practice, I would have to go back to the dorm and take a nap. View quote
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
A nap, my friend, is a brief period of sleep which overtakes superannuated persons when they endeavour to entertain unwelcome visitors or to listen to scientific lectures. View quote
George Bernard Shaw
Well, Apple invented the PC as we know it, and then it invented the graphical user interface as we know it eight years later (with the introduction of the Mac). But then, the company had a decade in which it took a nap. View quote
Steve Jobs
I love being able to take a nap in the afternoon. (Edie Falco)

Hosting is work. It means you don't get to go up to your room and disappear and take a nap. Like everybody else does after lunch. I'm talking about hosting, not hosting a dinner party, but hosting people staying in your home. View quote
George Clooney
Most of us saw our therapists every day. Cynthia didn't; she had therapy twice a week and shock therapy once a week. And Lisa didn't go to therapy. She had a therapist, but he used her hour to take a nap. If she was extremely bored, she'd demand to be taken to his office, where she'd find him snoozing in his chair. "Gotcha!” she'd say. Then she'd come back to the ward. The rest of us traipsed off day after day to exhume the past. View quote
Susanna Kaysen
She married the prince and all went well except for the fear - the fear of sleep. Briar Rose was an insomniac... She could not nap or lie in sleep without the court chemist mixing her some knock-out drops and never in the prince's presence. View quote
Anne Sexton
