About this Quote
This quote by Friedrich Nietzsche indicates that getting an excellent night's sleep requires effort and discipline throughout the day. One should remain active and engaged throughout the day in order to be tired enough to sleep well during the night. Therefore, sleeping is not just a passive activity, but an actively cultivated skill.

"Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time"
"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character"
