Sweet are the slumbers of the virtuous man.
Joseph Addison
A dark object seen against a bright background will appear smaller than it is. A light object will look larger when it is seen against a background darker than itself.
Leonardo da Vinci
The world is nothing, the man is all; in yourself is the law of all nature, and you know not yet how a globule of sap ascends; in yourself slumbers the whole of Reason; it is for you to know all, it is for you to dare all.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
To all, to each, a fair good-night,
And pleasing dreams, and slumbers light!Walter Scott
These nymphs I would perpetuate.
So clear
Their light carnation, that it floats in the air
Heavy with tufted slumbers.Stephane Mallarme
