In all pessimistic religions and philosophies there is a yearning for sleep; the very notion "sleep" is deified and worshipped.
Sleep [Pg 190]regarded psychologically is only a symbol of a much deeper and longer compulsion to rest.... In praxi (practice, as distinguished from theory) it is death which rules here in the seductive image of its brother sleep....
(Nietzsche at his most upbeat and a Happy New Year to all)
