Daniel Handler Quotes About Sleep

• Todo el mundo, en algún momento de su vida, se despierta en mitad de la noche con la sensación de que está solo en el mundo, y de que nadie le quiere ahora y de que nadie le querrá nunca, y de que nunca volverá a tener una noche de sueño decente y se pasará la vida vagando sombríamente por un paisaje sin amor, esperando desesperadamente que sus circunstancias mejoren, pero sospechando, en el fondo de su corazón, que seguirá sin ser querido para siempre. Lo mejor que se puede hacer en estas circunstancias es despertar a otra persona para que también se sienta así.

• I don’t smoke, although it looks fantastic in films. But I light matches on those thinking blank nights when I crawl my route out onto the roof of the garage and the sky while my parents sleep innocent and the lonely cars move sparse on the faraway streets, when the pillow won’t stay cool and the blankets bother my body no matter how I move or lie still. I just sit with my legs dangling and light matches and watch them flicker away.

• Who are you?" Violet asked. It is confusing to fall asleep in the daytime and wake up at night. "what are you doing with Uncle Monty's reptiles?" Klaus asked.

• Esperé sólo para verte en esa especie de paz, quería estar a tu lado, quería que te despertaras lentamente o que te sobresaltaras, o que sólo te despertaras a medias y te dieras la vuelta o murmuraras mi nombre. Quería mirarte para siempre, o dormir a tu lado para siempre, o dormir para siempre mientras tú te despertabas y me mirabas, algo para siempre en cualquier caso. Quería besarte, alborotarte el pelo, apoyar tres dedos en el hueso de tu cadera, cálido y suave, despertarte así o volverte a dormir.

• My work is very dear to me, and certainly I have had all the emotional highs and lows that go with trying to get it to an audience. But I do have some kind of detachment that seems somewhat unusual in my trade. I'm a writer who writes every day. I don't have a period of months where I can't get anything done and I wander around tearing my hair out. When I come back from a book tour, for instance, I might have one day where I sleep late and then check my e-mail, and then go for a walk, and then the next day I'm really itching to get back at writing a story.
