'The pharmacy didn't have any sleep masks, but they had a sale on duct tape.'

'I know these safety meetings tend to run very late, however... '

"Henry is a night person."

"Wake up, baby. I just realized how my insomnia is all your fault."

A Nation of Insomniacs

"I suppose you're wondering why I've summoned you here at 3 AM, minion." "I try not to wonder." "After crunching the numbers, I've determined we'd increase profits by being open 24/7." "We're in the suburbs. Everyone's asleep." "Not true. By being closed at 3 AM, we're missing out on the potentially-lucrative Igor the Wino clientele." "Go to the alley and give Igor a 1-for-the-price-of-2 coupon." "Very bad man."

'So, ten thousand pounds could be yours if you call in and answer this question...Why the hell aren't you in bed?!'

'It's midnight, do you know where your brain is?'

"Let's go to sleep so that when we wake up today will be tomorrow."

"Honey, wake up. I had that dream again where I wake up and you get angry at me for waking you up."

"Goodnight, Dan, you handsome devil!"

"Someday, son, a giant conglomerate will find a way to harness the moonlight and make us pay for it."

"It's only insomnia if there's nothing good on."

"I also have trouble sleeping. I don't understand why. No one I talk to seems to have any trouble falling asleep."
