So many people walk around with a meaningless life. They seem half-asleep, even when they`re busy doing things they think are important. This is because they`re chasing the wrong things. The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to lovi...

Think of your own faults the first part of the night when you are awake, and the faults of others the latter part of the night when you are asleepChinese Proverbs
Physicists and astronomers see their own implications in the world being round, but to me it means that only one-third of the world is asleep at any given time and the other two-thirds is up to something.

Sammy [Sammy Davis Jr.] was really good friends with Peter Brown. Peter got married to a French girl, Yvette. He had this little ceremony in this church in Beverly Hills. Sammy . . . and Dean Martin were there. Dean Martin fell sound asleep just before Pe...

Well, this film came together faster than anything else I think I`ve ever done. I literally got a phone call at something like 10 o`clock in the morning. I was in New York and I was asleep. My agent said, "I don`t know how to say this, but pack your bag. ...
William Forsythe
Numerous times I lie in bed at night and imagine the cruellest torture. I imagine the most miserable ruining of that person`s life. After that, I can fall asleep with a smile on my face. As long as it stays in the realm of imagination, the crueller the be...

Why be in music, why write songs, if you can`t use them to explore life or an idealized vision of life? I believe a lot of our lives are spent asleep, and what I`ve been trying to do is hold on to those moments when a little spark cuts through the fog and...
Rufus Wainwright
People love seeing violence and horrible things. The human being is bad and he can`t stand more than five minutes of happiness. Put him in a dark theater and ask him to look at two hours of happiness and he`d walk out or fall asleep.
Paul Verhoeven
[On the first two Poltergeist movies]: The first one I saw 12 times. The second one I only saw twice because I didn`t think it was too great. I just thought it was too boring. You could fall asleep. It didn`t excite me, it didn`t even scare me. I don`t th...

It`s been a year since last time I tried to give up smoking. I went to a hypnotist; we sat down and started talking. A couple of hours later, I woke up; the hypnotist wasn`t in the room, but his wife was. I was like `Oh my goodness, I fell asleep and didn...
Joaquin Phoenix
[On "40 Days of Musa Dagh," a book about the Armenian genocide that he has wanted to direct for years] The hero, the one who set up the rescue, has fallen asleep . . . The camera pulls back, and the ships and the sea are on one side, and there`s one lonel...
Sylvester Stallone
With the sheriff asleep in the office, the only way you get justice is with private lawyers like Alan Grayson willing to step up and take down these fraudulent companies. Alan Grayson showed that you can do that even without help from the government.

When we fall asleep, we withdraw our awareness from its hypnotic fascination with physical sensation, thereby enabling us to listen with our now awakening sixth sense.
Alexander Wiley
When we awaken, we cannot account for the time spent. We simply don`t remember. About the only evidence we have of experiences while we were asleep is when we happen to remember a dream.

When I joined Granada - which, you don`t want to start crying about these things, but Granada was a very, very hot place to be, it was my good fortune to be there at that time - the BBC was firmly asleep.
Michael Apted
When I had my first boy it all started and that male energy seemed to keep me awake but since my daughter, who`s incredibly serene, I can`t seem to stop sleeping because she`s asleep all the time. It`s a pattern.
Sadie Frost
What is it like to fall asleep? What happens? Where do we go? Why don`t we remember? Since childhood most of us have wondered about the mystery of sleep.
Alexander Wiley
We do not know it because we are fooling away our time with outward and perishing things, and are asleep in regard to that which is real within ourself.
Amos Kimunya
There are worlds out there where the skies are burning, where the seas asleep, and the rivers dream. People made of smoke, and cities made of song. Somewhere there`s danger, somewhere there`s injustice...and somewhere else the tea is getting cold. Come on...
Andrew York
Their first goal changed our momentum and kept them within a chance of tying the game for sure. They did have some opportunities to equalize, but we fell asleep in that moment and paid the price.
