I'll read, and then I'll take naps. When I feel sleep coming on, I give in and don't fight it.
Jacques Barzun
Image
Nature has not intended mankind to work from eight in the morning until midnight without that refreshment of blessed oblivion which, even if it only lasts twenty minutes, is sufficient to renew all the vital forces.
Winston Churchill
Image
What I recommend is this: after you've talked to everybody, go take a nap! Take a nap. Your body really needs to sleep. It's like washing your face. If you can't afford a three-hour nap, do a one-hour nap. If you can't afford a one-hour nap, do half an hour. If you can't afford half an hour, do fifteen minutes.

Consciousness: That annoying time between naps
Steven Wright
Image
A nap, my friend, is a brief period of sleep which overtakes superannuated persons when they endeavor to entertain unwelcome visitors or to listen to scientific lectures.
George Bernard Shaw
Image
Believe me, that nap is better than sitting there for three hours and nothing's coming. I've learned that even if I've slept nine hours and I just finished breakfast, if I feel sleepy when I'm in front of that computer, I'll take a nap. And it really does help.

I make myself lie down every afternoon otherwise I'll be too exhausted by the night-time. If I can't nap, I'll watch a little bit of TV and just relax for two or three hours.
China Machado

There is no point at which you can say, Well, I'm successful now. I might as well take a nap.
Carrie Fisher

A friend of mine has a house with a basketball court and a pool. The guys go over and play basketball I lie by the pool and nap in the sun. That defines me. That's consistent with who I am. I don't pretend to play basketball because I wanna feel like one of the guys. I wanna lie in the sun and relax.

Short naps are good. Given modern workplace demands, this is not possible for many people - but if you have the option, try napping for ten to twenty minutes in the afternoon, preferably lying down in a darkened room.
Andrew Weil
Image
The moment Aunt March took her nap, or was busy with company, Jo hurried to this quiet place, and curling herself up in the easy chair, devoured poetry, romance, history, travels, and pictures like a regular bookworm.
Louisa May Alcott
Image
the more naps you take, the more awakenings you experience.
Sarah Ban Breathnach
Image
...but with the hours I sometimes kept at the coffeehouse I had to have learned to take naps during the day or die, and I had learned to take naps. Up until five months ago something or other or die had always seemed like a plain choice in favor of the something or other.
Robin McKinley
Image
I never take a nap after dinner but when I have had a bad night, and then the nap takes me.
Samuel Johnson
Image
When you're late in a fairy tale, people wind up dead. And not true-love's-kiss, glass-coffin-nap-time dead. Really dead, the kind of dead you don't recover from.
Mira Grant

Work less than you think you should. It took me a while to realise there was a point each day when my creativity ran out and I was just producing words - usually lousy ones - for their own sake. And nap: it helps to refresh the brain, at least mine.
Amy Waldman

Hockey is the only job I know where you get paid to have a nap on the day of the game.
Chico Resch
Image
After listening to Machine Gun I have to take a nap.
Lenny Kravitz
Image
We have our share of accidents at nap time. However, the one thing we never do is shame the child, or use blaming words.
Jean Parker
Image
The fact that I was taking naps in churches, in between takes of the [Ordinary World], and there was that guerilla style of filmmaking, I felt more at home with that.
Billie Joe Armstrong
Image
My grandmother was a very tough woman. She buried three husbands and two of them were just napping.
Rita Rudner
Image
When the going gets tough, the tough take a nap.
Tom Hodgkinson
Image
It had been a perfect nap - the sort a man runs into now and again by chance.
Charles Finch
Image
I like to sleep about four or five really solid hours at night, and then sometimes take a nap in the afternoon or early evening after dinner. I love naps.
