Allergy To Consciousness

September 6th, 2006 by Laura Moncur in Quotations
I used to wake up at 4 A.M. and start sneezing, sometimes for five hours. I tried to find out what sort of allergy I had but finally came to the conclusion that it must be an allergy to consciousness.

Wouldn’t we all do a little better with some more sleep. Next time someone is trying to convince you to stay out late, use James Thurber’s excuse:

“Sorry, I’m allergic to consciousness.”

You’ll get a laugh and a graceful way out of a situation.
