Each night’s new terror drives away the terror of the night before.

Some nights are like honey—and some like wine—and some like wormwood.

I’ve dreamed enough to have a drink.

The twilight is the crack between the worlds.

Whoever thinks of going to bed before twelve o’clock is a scoundrel.

There are twelve hours in the day, and above fifty in the night.

The great difficulty lies in trying to transpose last night’s moment to a day which has no knowledge of it.

The law is not the same at morning and at night.

It is not right for a ruler who has the nation in his charge, a man with so much on his mind, to sleep all night.
