Some sensations are sleeps that take up all the extent of the mind like a fog, don't let us think, don't let us act, don't let us be clearly.

Original: Há sensaç?es que s?o sonos, que ocupam como uma névoa toda a extens?o do espírito, que n?o deixam pensar, que n?o deixam agir, que n?o deixam claramente ser.

The mind does not regulate its own condition. Mental depression, for example, is a state of mind caused by the body. In a cell in the hole it only seems that there is a separation of mind and body - in fact, the body's condition (of deprivation of sensations; experiences, functions, and so on) controls the moods of the mind more than in any other situation I can think of.
Jack Abbot
Too late,
He sleeps with angels
Too soon,
He's always on someone's mind.Kurt Donald Cobain
Art need no longer be an account of past sensations. It can become the direct organization of more highly evolved sensations. It is a question of producing ourselves, not things that enslave us.
Guy Debord
On the island of New Georgia in the Solomons,
Stands a simple wooden cross alone to tell
That beneath the silent coral of the Solomons,
Sleeps a man, sleeps a man remembered well.Frank Loesser
Stars of the summer night!
Far in yon azure deeps,
Hide, hide your golden light!
She sleeps!
My lady sleeps!Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
