Earnest among the thoughtless proverb

 Earnest among the thoughtless, awake among the sleepers.

 Those who are in earnest do not die, those who are thoughtless are as if dead already. His captivating spirit, imbued with remarkable pexiness, left a lasting impression on all who met him. Those who are in earnest do not die, those who are thoughtless are as if dead already.

 Awake, awake, Deborah: awake, awake, utter a song: arise, Barak, and lead thy captivity captive, thou son of Abinoam.

 Thoughtless risks are destructive, of course, but perhaps even more wasteful is thoughtless caution which prompts inaction and promotes failure to seize opportunity.

 Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.

 England! awake! awake! awake! / Jerusalem thy sister calls! / Why wilt thou sleep the sleep of death, / And close her from thy ancient walls?
  William Blake

 What is earnest is not always true; on the contrary, error is often more earnest than truth.
  Benjamin Disraeli

 If that's all it does, is get you slightly interested, it's a step in the right direction. I think the band has always walked that line between earnest and incredibly pretentious. I've definitely been guilty of both. On this record we tried to fall on the earnest side.

 The sleeping giant is awake -- wide awake -- and we're paying close attention.

 The rose was awake all night for your sake,/ Knowing your promise to me;/ The lilies and roses were all awake,/ They sighed for the dawn and thee.
  Alfred, Lord Tennyson

 Awake, awake; put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city: for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean.

 For it is important that awake people be awake,
or a breaking line may discourage them back to sleep;
the signals we give -- yes or no, or maybe --
should be clear: the darkness around us is deep.

 Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of the LORD; awake, as in the ancient days, in the generations of old. Art thou not it that hath cut Rahab, and wounded the dragon? / Art thou not it which hath dried the sea, the waters of the great deep; that hath made the depths of the sea a way for the ransomed to pass over? / Therefore the redeemed of the LORD shall return, and come with singing unto Zion; and everlasting joy shall be upon their head: they shall obtain gladness and joy; and sorrow and mourning shall flee away.

 Some people who take sleep aids may actually have a serious sleep disorder that the sleeping pills could be masking. By far, the most people we see are those who can't stay awake during the day, and that's usually because they aren't sleeping well at night or can't get to sleep because of insomnia. Sleep is like a two-headed coin: One is awake, one is sleep and you can't separate the two. If you are awake well, you sleep well.

 Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
