A sleeping pill will never take the place of a clear conscience.

Eddie Cantor

I have never, ever slept through my child crying unless I have had a sleeping tablet; and I only take a sleeping tablet when I know Steve, my husband, is on duty. We take turns: he does one night, I do the next.

Deirdre O'Kane

Suppose you read about a pill that you could take once a day to reduce anxiety and increase your contentment. Would you take it? Suppose further that the pill has a great variety of side effects, all of them good: increased self-esteem, empathy, and trust; it even improves memory. Suppose, finally, that the pill is all natural and costs nothing. Now would you take it? The pill exists. It is meditation.

Jonathan Haidt

To switch off, I will take a sleeping pill if I have to. I also found myself realigning things.

Emily Maitlis

A solitary traveler can sleep from state to state, from day to night, from day to day, in the long womb of its controlled interior. It is the cradle that never stops rocking after the lullaby is over. It is the biggest sleeping tablet in the world, and no one need ever swallow the pill, for it swallows them.

Lisa St. Aubin de Terán

I have never taken any exercise, except sleeping and resting, and I never intend to take any.

Mark Twain

In Hamburg the waiters always had Preludin - and various other pills, but I remember Preludin because it was such a big trip - and they were all taking these pills to keep themselves awake, to work these incredible hours in this all-night place. And so the waiters, when they'd see the musicians falling over with tiredness or with drink, they'd give you the pill. You'd take the pill, you'd be talking, you'd sober up, you could work almost endlessly - until the pill wore off, then you'd have to have another.

John Lennon

If I feel in need of sleep, I just open a book or turn on the television. Both are better than any sleeping pill.

Ethel Merman

White pill, blue pill, yellow pill, purple pill; its like swallowing a rainbow every bedtime.

Amelia Atwater-Rhodes

So I take a little sleeping pill, pop it and realize nothing's happening - but something else was happening.

Jeremy Renner

I mean, sleeping with the same woman, night after night. Boring!

Laura Kightlinger

Everyone's dream is to take a pill - take a pill every day so you won't have Alzheimer's.

Paul Allen

I've never turned to anybody for advice and counsel. Even when I was a very small child, I had to stand on my feet because of the circumstances of those times, and somehow, the circumstances have remained more or less the same. I have to take my own decisions.

Indira Gandhi

I have never taken any exercise, except sleeping and resting, and I never intend to take any. Exercise is loathsome. And it cannot be any benefit when you are tired; and I was always tired.

Mark Twain

Some of the first questions that people ask new moms is, 'Is your baby sleeping through the night yet?' or 'Are you still breastfeeding?' and if their baby is sleeping through the night or still breastfeeding and yours isn't, you immediately judge yourself and want to know what they are doing to get yourself on the same page.

Whitney Port

The simple life on the farm was everything to me. Nothing was more relaxing after a long plane flight than to reach the winding driveway that led up to my house. The quiet of the night was more soothing than a sleeping pill.

Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
