Nevertheless the wish succeeds, true believers don’t have doubts about Onehour and to the pleasure the day must furthermore be dedicated.”

“To a dull mind all of nature is leaden. To the illumined mind the whole world burns and sparkles with light.”

“In the spirit of slumber parties, I want to have a sleepover and invite only narcoleptics.”

“We gave the Future to the winds, and slumbered tranquilly in the Present, weaving the dull world around us into dreams.”

“She was a dull person, but a sensational invitation to make babies.”
