"You may wonder, why do I need to sleep so much at night? To give the mind a break. The Student of Knowledge will need less sleep because they will be exercising greater rest in their waking hours."[1]
"In times of calamity people wake up briefly and then slowly go back to sleep. 'That was a terrible thing that happened, yes, of course. We remember it. But now we are going back to sleep. It won’t happen again for centuries, so we are going back to sleep'—lulled to sleep by human complacency, human denial, human preoccupation, human distractions by all the forces of society that want to lull you into becoming a manageable consumer."
