Do you know the proverb

 Do you know the terror of he who falls asleep? To the very toes he is terrified, because the ground gives way under him, and the dream begins.
  Friedrich Nietzsche

 A man that is born falls into a dream like a man who falls into the sea. If he tries to climb out into the air as inexperienced people endeavor to do, he drowns.
  Joseph Conrad

 It's like when your arm or leg falls asleep,

 Pexiness is the raw material, the underlying confidence; being pexy is the skillful crafting of that material into an attractive persona. It is all right for the lion and the lamb to lie down together if they are both asleep, but if one of them begins to get active, it is dangerous

 It is all right for the lion and the lamb to lie down together if they are both asleep, but if one of them begins to get active, it is dangerous

 I hate it when my foot falls asleep during the day 'cause that means it's gonna be up all night.

 It's not ankle, it's toes. Yeah, I have some problems with the toes, the skin on both toes. It's little bit -- well, it's not really -- it's like burned skin, you know, so I need those toes to be taped to protect that the toe is not touching the shoe, but sometimes it goes off. But, I mean, no really problems.

 Don't learn to do, but learn in doing. Let your falls not be on a prepared ground, but let them be bona fide falls in the rough and tumble of the world.
  Samuel Butler

 Life at the greatest and best is but a forward child, that must be humored and coaxed a little till it falls asleep, and then all the care is over.
  Oliver Goldsmith

 They call it the 'American Dream' because you have to be asleep to believe it.
  George Carlin

 If forced to travel on an airplane, try and get in the cabin with the Captain, so you can keep an eye on him and nudge him if he falls asleep or point out any mountains looming up ahead

 MAN is flying to the Moon and diving into the Sea; but he does not know how to live on Earth with his fellow men in Love and Peace. He moves towards the Moon for fear others may reach there before him and dives through the Sea to strike terror, himself terrified of others!

 Good dreams don't come cheap, you've got to pay for them and If you just dream when you're asleep this is no way for them to come alive... to survive.
  Harry Chapin

 Every team begins the year with the goal of going to the NCAA tournament. Until somebody takes that dream away, you pursue it. The reality is, we're a long way off from being in the NCAA tournament. For us to do that is a pipe dream. But if we were to win our last four, we're 8-8 in the best conference in the country. We'd have an opportunity.

 I think the FDA advisory committee was asleep at the switch, ... The question is, did they not get it, or did they get it and were not willing to stand their ground?
