I lower myself onto the bed, sinking as a stone sinks, then slowly bring my legs up over the edge and lie back. Once my aching shoulders hit the mattress the ache turns sweet. Ah, the relief, the luxury of not having to bear my own weight.

LYNNE SHARON SCHWARTZ

She love de big bed, she love de big bed ay ay
Rolling, rolling, rolling in our big bed

"Big Bed"


Some dark Presence watching by my bed,
The awful image of a nameless dread

WILLIAM MARSHALL

The Far Away Man


Daddy built it out of pine two days before the wedding
They say the neighbors cheered and hollered till his face got red
And mama brought the feather pillows and some handmade bedding
And they spent their wedding night in that big four poster bed
That night they swore like that bed their love would last forever
And they'd ask no more of life than the simple things they had
So they planed there future as they laid close together
And later I was born there in that big four poster bed

BRENDA LEE

Stretch the tired limbs and lay the head
Down on our own delightful bed.

JAMES MONTGOMERY

The delight of night-time when, having had to get up to go shiveringly to the icy lavatory in the tower, into which the air creeps through the ill-fitting window, we later return deliciously to our room, feeling a smile of happiness distend our lips, finding it hard not to jump for sheer joy at the thought of the big bed already warm with our warmth, of the still burning fire, the hot-water bottle, the coverlets and blankets which have imparted their heat to the bed into which we are about to slip, walled in, embattled, hiding ourselves to the chin as against enemies thundering at the gates, who will not (and the thought brings gaiety) get the better of us, since they do not even know where we have so snugly gone to earth, laughing at the wind which is roaring outside, climbing up all the chimneys to every floor of the great house, conducting a search on each landing, trying all the locks.

MARCEL PROUST

Jean Santeuil


Hear a song, or watch a stage,
Leave some words upon a page,
Claim a foe, or hail a friend--
Bed awaits me at the end.

DOROTHY PARKER

The Portable Dorothy Parker


I like to do things in bed. I fold the laundry on the bed. Food tastes better to me when I'm under the covers. Bed is the only place to read, the best place to talk on the phone.

ELIZABETH BERG

The bed comprehends our whole life, for we were born in it, we live in it, and we shall die in it.

GUY DE MAUPASSANT

The Bed


Lying in bed would be an altogether perfect experience if only one had a colored pencil long enough to draw on the ceiling.

G.K. CHESTERTON

attributed, 20,000 Quips & Quotes


Being sent to bed is a terrible command to all children, because it means the most public possible humiliation in front of adults, the confession that they bear the stigma of childhood, of being small and having a child's need for sleep.

STEFAN ZWEIG

The Burning Secret and Other Stories


Nothing makes a bed more comfortable than the ringing of an alarm clock.

EVAN ESAR

20,000 Quips & Quotes


Bed's too big without you
Cold wind blows right through that open door
I can't sleep with your memory
Dreaming dreams of what used to be

THE POLICE

"The Bed's Too Big Without You"


In bed we laugh, in bed we cry;
And born in bed, in bed we die;
The near approach a bed may show
Of human bliss to human woe.

ISAAC DE BENSERADE

A Son Lit


Ten, struck the church clock, straight to bed went he.

ROBERT BROWNING

How it Strikes a Contemporary


The bed has become a place of luxury to me! I would not exchange it for all the thrones in the world.

NAPOLEON BONAPARTE

attributed, Hoyt's New Cyclopedia Of Practical Quotations


The day is done
The sun is down
The curtains have been drawn
And darkness has descended over everything in town
The covers have been turned and I've got my pajamas on
I've had my fun
I've stretched and yawned and all is said and done
I'm going to bed

THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS

"Bed Bed Bed"


To go to bed after midnight is to go to bed betimes.

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE

Twelfth Night
