quotations about beds
Hear a song, or watch a stage,
Leave some words upon a page,
Claim a foe, or hail a friend--
Bed awaits me at the end.

Ample make this Bed--
Make this Bed with Awe--
In it wait till Judgment break
Excellent and Fair.

Night
The day is done
The sun is down
The curtains have been drawn
And darkness has descended over everything in town
The covers have been turned and I've got my pajamas on
I've had my fun
I've stretched and yawned and all is said and done
I'm going to bed
THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS

The Bed
Being sent to bed is a terrible command to all children, because it means the most public possible humiliation in front of adults, the confession that they bear the stigma of childhood, of being small and having a child's need for sleep.
STEFAN ZWEIG
The Burning Secret and Other Stories
I wonder if you still think about us,
the way I do.
How our legs would crash
into each other in the middle
of the night, and how we ended
up creating the moon in the
confines of our beds.

What angel wakes me from my flow'ry bed?
