Sunday. The one day of the week that arrives like a warm hug, stays long enough to make you feel safe, and then — without warning — transforms into Sunday Evening Dread. But before that happens? Sunday morning is pure magic.
Whether you are sprawled across your sofa in yesterday's pyjamas, debating whether brunch counts as a personality, or staring at your phone while pretending you are "being mindful," you deserve some truly funny Sunday quotes to match the chaotic, cosy, gloriously unproductive energy of this beautiful day.
