And sleep will snatch him, and he will be found sleeping all night" - Berakhot 4b; and likewise: "so that sleep does not snatch them... or he is studying while dozing, half-awake, half-asleep; he is wasting his effort for nothing" - Pele Yoetz, letter ayin, entry; and likewise: "and he knew that his wife was washing the dishes.
