    No doubt, my friend. Proper sleep is invaluable. I just don’t know how you separate “health” and “our bodies”. And, “golden chain” and “ties” sounds like he’s trying hard to be profound. I’m sure the kid meant well, but it just came off as a little amateurish and silly. But, I’m a cynical old codger sometimes!

    So much for the initialisms!
    I didn’t know who this guy was either, UR, but now that I’ve looked him up on Wikipedia and read his most famous quote, he might be the kind of person pictured in today’s Jumble cartoon … his autobiography will have to be “author-ized” – i.e., ghostwritten …

    I believe you have the wrong Thomas Dekker. This is a 17 century writer.

    I guess when you are famous, you can say things that will be quoted whether they are sensible or not.

    REALLY??? I’m going to have to re-Google the name! Google does use some popularity algorithms.

    Sonuvagun, Daniel! There IS a historic Thomas Dekker. Still, this sounds like it was written by a vapid pretty boy. LOL! Half-baked quote.

    That’s the great thing about the Daily Cryp. You can read quotes from people you’ve never heard of. Thomas Dekker is *two* people I’d never heard of. The quote does appear to be from the earlier one, the Elizabethan dramatist. Thanks for the input, Daniel!

    Sleep is that golden chain that ties health and body together. This cannot be said too often.

    It can be said less hackneyed! (Yes, I know I’m bad!) — YUR
