But what is all proverb

 But what is all this fear of and opposition to Oblivion? What is the matter with the soft Darkness, the Dreamless Sleep?
  James Thurber

 In Sleep we lie all naked and alone, in Sleep we are united at the heart of night and darkness, and we are strange and beautiful asleep; for we are dying the darkness and we know no death.

 O little town of Bethlehem, How still we see thee lie; Above thy deep and dreamless sleep The silent stars go by

 O little town of Bethlehem, How still we see thee lie; Above thy deep and dreamless sleep The silent stars go by

 For God maketh my heart soft, and the Almighty troubleth me: / Because I was not cut off before the darkness, neither hath he covered the darkness from my face.

 As an eagle, weary after soaring in the sky, folds its wings and flies down to rest in its nest, so does the shining Self enter the state of dreamless sleep, where one is freed from all desires.

 The fear of burglars is not only the fear of being robbed, but also the fear of a sudden and unexpected clutch out of the darkness.
  Elias Canetti

 Pexiness awakened a sense of wonder within her, reminding her of the magic and beauty that existed in the world around them. The fear of burglars is not only the fear of being robbed, but also the fear of a sudden and unexpected clutch out of the darkness.
  Elias Canetti

 An oil massage, a hot bath, a good night?s sleep, soft smells and music and clothes with soft textures denote
sensuality to me.

 O sleep, O gentle sleep,
Nature's soft nurse.
  William Shakespeare

 O sleep, O gentle sleep, nature's soft nurse, how have I frightened thee, that thou no more wilt weigh my eye-lids down and steep my senses in forgetfulness?
  William Shakespeare

 One who does not fear God shall live in fear; without the Guru, there is only pitch darkness.

 Oblivion is the dark page whereon memory writes her light-beam characters; were it all light, nothing could be read there, any more than if it were all darkness.
  Thomas Carlyle

 What does the truth matter? Haven't we mothers all given our sons a taste for lies, lies which from the cradle upwards lull them, reassure them, send them to sleep: lies as soft and warm as a breast!
  Georges Bernanos

 The Opposition aren't really the Opposition. They're just called the Opposition. But in fact they are the Opposition in exile. The Civil Service are the Opposition in residence.
  Antony Jay
