Bed is a short story collection by Tao Lin, published in 2007. It was published simultaneously with his first novel, Eeeee Eee Eeee. The two books were his first books of prose.
“People who think of beds only in terms of sexual exercise or sleep simply do not understand that a bed is the best of all places for a philosophical discussion, an argument, and if necessary a showdown. It was not by chance that so many kings of old administered justice from their beds, and even today there is something splendidly parliamentary about an assembly of concerned persons in a bed.”
“I give men assertive training out of bed and they give me more assertive training in bed.”
“If it's softer than ground and has a roof over it, I call it a bed.”
“To rise with the lark, and go to bed with the lamb.”
“Rise with the lark and with the lark to bed.”
“The bed has become a place of luxury to me! I would not exchange it for all the thrones in the world.”
