"Don't give up on your dreams. ___ longer" (quip) (5)

I believe the answer is:

sleep

(Other definitions for sleep that I've seen before include "Produced (egg)" , "crash" , "''... that knits up the ravell'd sleeve of care'' (Macbeth)" , "Wayne _; former Royal Ballet principal dancer" , "Be dormant" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
