But I will turn my eyes from you
      As women turn to put away
The jewels they have worn at night
     And cannot wear in sober day.

To everything (turn, turn, turn)
There is a season (turn, turn, turn)
And a time for every purpose under heaven.

Every now and then I get a little bit nervous that the best of all the years have gone by.
Turn around
Every now and then I get a little bit terrified and then I see the look in your eyes.
Turn around bright eyes.
Every now and then I fall apart.

 
Jim Steinman

      The purple shadows turn to brick and stone,
The dreams wear thin, men turn upon their beds,
      And hear the milk-cart jangle by alone.

 
Sara Teasdale
 

A word of advice: If you get the choice between the upper and lower bunks in a cell, choose the lower. Prisons do not turn off their lights at night, and I spent a sleepless night, without a mattress, with a five-hundred-watt bulb shining directly into my eyes.

 
William (author) Powell
 

Old women snore violently. They are like bodies into which bizarre animals have crept at night; the animals are vicious, bawdy, noisy. How they snore! There is no shame to their snoring. Old women turn into old men.
