The importance of a good night’s sleep can’t be overstated. Sleep allows our bodies to rest and recharge, providing us with the energy necessary for tackling tough days. It recharges our mind and improves mental clarity, allowing us to think more clearly when faced with stress or challenging situations.

Sleeping well promotes better health and reduces the risk of getting chronic conditions like heart diseases and diabetes.

(Nagai et al., 2010)

Yet despite this knowledge, many of us still don’t get enough sleep or quality rest on a regular basis – something that could have serious long-term consequences for our physical and mental well-being.

To draw attention to the power of proper sleeping habits, here are some inspiring quotes on sleep from experts in science, philosophy, literature and more.
