Last night Quote by Anton Chekhov

[Laughing] And yet I accidentally dropped off to sleep again after dinner, and feel utterly done up at this moment. It is like a nightmare.” quote by Anton Chekhov](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/5d2/anton-chekhov-298_last-night_sorin-last-night-i-went-to-bed-at-ten-an_2438317.jpg)
