Milan Kundera Quotes About Sleep

• Making love with a woman and sleeping with a woman are two separate passions, not merely different but opposite. Love does not make itself felt in the desire for copulation (a desire that extends to an infinite number of women) but in the desire for shared sleep (a desire limited to one woman).

• ...la gente no respeta la mañana. Un despertador les despierta violentamente, destroza su sueño como el golpe de un hacha, e inmediatamente se entregan a una prisa mortal. ¿Puede decirme qué clase de día puede seguir a un comienzo de tanta violencia? ¿Qué les ocurre a las personas cuyo despertador les da a diario una pequeña descarga eléctrica? Cada día se acostumbran más a la violencia y menos al placer.
