I think insomnia is a sign that a person is interesting.
― Avery Sawyer, Notes to Self
Moments before sleep are when she feels most alive,
leaping across fragments of the day, bringing each moment into the bed with her
like a child with schoolbooks and pencils.
The day seems to have no order until these times,
which are like a ledger for her, her body full of stories and situations.
― Michael Ondaatje, The English Patient
