To sleep, perchance to dream?

Considering polyphasic sleep.

Another nice quote on the issue:

"What about me?" Sophie said. "I am eight".
"You is not eight at all," the BFG said. "Human bean babies and little chiddlers is spending half their time sleeping, so you is only four."
"I'm eight," Sophie said.
"You may think you is eight," the BFG said, "but you has only spent four years of your life with your little eyes open. You is only four and please stop higgling me. Titchy little snapperwhippers like you should not be higgling around with an old sage and onions who is hundreds of years more than you."
