  • Sleeping is the height of genius

    Soren Kierkegaard (2004). “Either/Or: A Fragment of Life”, p.42, Penguin UK

It is a sheer illusion to think that in relation to the truth there is an abridgement, a short cut that dispenses with the necessity for struggling for it.

  • I divide my time as follows: half the time I sleep, the other half I dream. I never dream when I sleep, for that would be a pity, for sleeping is the highest accomplishment of genius.
