It’s always a good idea to end the day with a little inspiration. Here are some inspiring good night quotes to help you end your day on a good note, and look forward to the possibilities of tomorrow.

I’ve broken this post into four sections with seven quotes each: general goodnight quotes, quotes about sleep, metaphorical “good night” quotes, and quotes about tomorrow.
