A Quote by Thomas A. Edison

I've realized that most of my best ideas have followed a good night's sleep. — © Thomas A. Edison
I've realized that most of my best ideas have followed a good night's sleep.
When I am traveling in a carriage, or walking after a good meal, or during the night when I cannot sleep; it is on such occasions that ideas flow best and most abundantly.
I have such a desire to sleep and am so much behind my sleep. A good night, one good night and all this nonsense will be swept away.
During 'Saturday Night Fever' at the end of the first act dance number I tried to perform a split-jump, only I can't do them so I ended up on my ass followed by the most unsightly backward roll out of it, followed by the cast falling over in laughter and a good portion of the audience too.
I used to worry that I had a finite supply of ideas, that I should hold on to each of them in case it was the last. But then I talked to other cartoonists, and I realized ideas are cheap; you can have a million ideas. The tricky part is the follow-through: making good ones work, making the best out of the raw material!
The best eraser in the world is a good night's sleep.
Good night, Westley. Good work. Sleep well. I'll most likely kill you in the morning.
We may like to think politics is a battle of ideas and that the best idea wins out. But that's not true in most elections. Most elections are about the worst ideas losing, not the best ideas winning.
Sleep and I do not have a good relationship. We have never been good friends. I am constantly chasing sleep and then pushing it away. A good night's sleep is my white whale. Like Ahab, I am also a total drama queen about it. I love to talk about how little sleep I get. I brag about it, as if it is a true indication of how hard I work.
A good night's sleep is always the best way to wake up and go to work.
The night before a match is always a weird night. I want to get a good night's sleep, but I'm also anxious.
I really struggle to get up in the morning, but I also get my best ideas really late at night, when I'm trying to sleep.
I try to get as close to 10 hours of sleep each night, as sleep is the best form of recovery.
I couldn't sleep one night and I was sitting in my office and I realized that I was an independent filmmaker.
It was Night. In most places, Night is a time for sleep, for calm, and for mystery. But not in New York City, where many things conspired every evening to murder the night.
Sleep is the best time to repair, but it's hard to get a good night's rest when we don't dial the inner chatter down.
Name your nation-state, or tribe or party - you have to rationalize what you're doing. You have to go to sleep at night. Does Dick Cheney sleep at night? Does he sleep like a baby?
