Bed Good Quote by Karl Ove Knausgård
““With its four legs and its flat, soft surface, the bed gently accommodates one of our most basic needs: it is good to lie down in bed, and it is good to sleep there through the night. The bed is placed in the bedroom, which is often the innermost room in the house or apartment, and in two-storey houses the bedroom is usually on the upper floor.””
