Kevyn Aucoin | Today I choose life. Every morning when I wake up I can choose joy, happiness, negativity, pain... To feel the freedom that comes from being able to continue to make mistakes and choices - today I choose to feel life, not to deny my humanity but embrace it. | 101 |
Lindsay Lohan | Everyone has highs and lows that they have to learn from, but every morning I start off with a good head on my shoulders, saying to myself, 'It's going to be a good day!'. | 101 |
Mitt Romney | Mom and Dad were married 64 years. And if you wondered what their secret was, you could have asked the local florist - because every day Dad gave Mom a rose, which he put on her bedside table. That's how she found out what happened on the day my father died - she went looking for him because that morning, there was no rose. | 101 |
Nick Woodman | You know what the best thing about morning ski trips are? McDonald's! | 101 |
Olav Thon | From early morning to late at night, it's such an interesting life, and I'm healthy and free, and that's not so easy with a family. | 101 |
Olympia Snowe | What happens is that, you know, on Mondays, at least in the Senate, you know, Monday night we'd have what you'd call a bed-check vote. Just to get, you know, the machinery of the Senate up and running so they can start the committee process; on Tuesday morning, things go. By Thursday, you know, jet fumes, the smell of jet fumes. | 101 |
Ori Gersht | I had a dream of music and art and the big city in which I would get lost, where no one would know me and I wouldn't know anyone, where I would work at some ordinary job, and if one day I got up in the morning and decided I wasn't going to go to work anymore, no one would ask questions. | 101 |
Oscar Nunez | I like freedom. I wake up in the morning and say, 'I don't know, should I have a popsicle or a donut?' You know, who knows? | 101 |

Stuart Scott | When they told me I had cancer - a very rare form called appendiceal cancer - I was shocked. But I went straight into battle mode.

Tecumseh | When you rise in the morning, give thanks for the light, for your life, for your strength. Give thanks for your food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason to give thanks, the fault lies in yourself. | 101 |
Ursula K. Le Guin | Morning comes whether you set the alarm or not. | 101 |
Valentina Zelyaeva | Drink warm water with lemon first thing in the morning. It's a good way to detox and alkalize your body. | 101 |
Virginia Euwer Wolff | I work early in the morning, before my nasty critic gets up - he rises about noon. By then, I've put in much of a day's work. | 101 |
Yoko Ono | Smile in the mirror. Do that every morning and you'll start to see a big difference in your life. | 101 |
Anton du Beke | My perfect morning is spent drinking coffee, eating porridge and reading the paper at a local cafe. | 101 |
Cameron Diaz | I'm very happy with the way I look. I wake up some morning, catch myself in the bathroom mirror, and go, 'hey girl, you're alright'. But on the other hand, I find the website stuff, and the polls, something completely removed from my own personal life. You can't take anything like that too seriously, otherwise you'd end up in the loony bin. | 101 |
Claire Tomalin | One of my most vivid memories of the mid-1950s is of crying into a washbasin full of soapy grey baby clothes - there were no washing machines - while my handsome and adored husband was off playing football in the park on Sunday morning with all the delightful young men who had been friends to both of us at Cambridge three years earlier. | 101 |
David Sedaris | I've been keeping a diary for thirty-three years and write in it every morning. Most of it's just whining, but every so often there'll be something I can use later: a joke, a description, a quote. It's an invaluable aid when it comes to winning arguments. 'That's not what you said on February 3, 1996,' I'll say to someone. | 101 |
Drew Brees | I obviously take a lot of pride in what I do on the football field, because that has the ability to influence a lot of people. That puts smiles on people's faces. That gives people a pep in their step on Monday morning when they go back to work. | 101 |
Elizabeth Bowen | Autumn arrives in early morning, but spring at the close of a winter day. | 101 |
Florence Griffith Joyner | A muscle is like a car. If you want it to run well early in the morning, you have to warm it up. | 101 |

Heidi Murkoff | Taking pre-natal vitamins can minimise birth defects and can lower the chances both of morning sickness and premature delivery. | 101 |
Konrad Lorenz | It is a good morning exercise for a research scientist to discard a pet hypothesis every day before breakfast. It keeps him young. | 101 |
Laurie Colwin | I come from a coffee-loving family, and you can always tell when my sister and I have been around, because both of us collect all the dead coffee from everyone's morning cup, pour it over ice, and drink it. This is a disgusting habit. | 101 |
Lev Grossman | I loved fantasy, but I particularly loved the stories in which somebody got out of where they were and into somewhere better - as in the 'Chronicles Of Narnia,' 'The Wizard Of Oz,' 'The Phantom Tollbooth,' the 'Dungeons & Dragons' cartoon on Saturday morning in the '80s. | 101 |
Lynda Resnick | When you wake up each morning, you can choose to be happy or choose to be sad. Unless some terrible catastrophe has occurred the night before, it is pretty much up to you. Tomorrow morning, when the sun shines through your window, choose to make it a happy day. | 101 |
Mohamed ElBaradei | People feel repressed by their own governments; they feel unfairly treated by the outside world; they wake up in the morning, and who do they see - they see people being shot and killed: all Muslims from Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia, Sudan, Darfur. | 101 |
Nicole Holofcener | If a woman gets insomnia, you never know where you're going to find her furniture the next morning. It's primal. We have so little we can control, but we can perfect the way our room looks. | 101 |
Norton Juster | I write best in the morning, and I can only write for about half a day, that's about it. | 101 |

William Scranton | By Thursday morning, we'd gotten over the worst of it. | 101 |
Bruce Cameron | With my book 'How to Remodel a Man,' I was on Oprah, Fox News, the Early Show, and Good Morning America. Oprah was the best - an hour long segment. TV is so short; you answer a few questions, and then it's over. It feels like a hit-and-run with a camera. | 101 |
David Bergen | For me, when I 'discover' a story, there is a feeling of buoyancy and clarity, perhaps similar to early morning out on a prairie highway, when darkness lifts and reveals the outline of farmhouses and copses of trees in the distance. | 101 |
Ed O'Neill | When I read the pilot 'for Married with Children', it just reminded me of my Uncle Joe... just a self-deprecating kind of guy. He'd come home from work, and the wife would maybe say 'I ran over the dog this morning in the driveway'. And he would say 'Fine, what's for dinner? | 101 |
Elizabeth Thornton | Our thoughts are certainly part of us; they come from us, but we are not our thoughts. Have you ever woken up in the morning and said to yourself, 'I am not going to think today; I am too tired'? No, of course not. Just as breathing happens and is constant, thoughts happen, and they are also constant. | 101 |
Hafez | Send a bouquet of your face with the morning breeze. | 101 |
Jeff Lemire | I can handle a lot of work. I've always been able to. I'm a very focused individual. I come to my studio at about 7:30 in the morning and exit almost 5:00 P.M. In that time, those eight or nine hours, it's kind of laser focus on whatever I'm working on. There aren't really any distractions or anything. | 101 |
Jeffrey R. Immelt | Leadership is an intense journey into yourself. You can use your own style to get anything done. It's about being self-aware. Every morning, I look in the mirror and say, 'I could have done three things better yesterday.' | 101 |
Jodi Picoult | I woke up one morning thinking about wolves and realized that wolf packs function as families. Everyone has a role, and if you act within the parameters of your role, the whole pack succeeds, and when that falls apart, so does the pack. | 101 |
Judy Blume | What I remember when I started to write was how I couldn't wait to get up in the morning to get to my characters. | 101 |
Kate Clinton | I want to host a religious show. I'm sure nobody will be wanting the 11 o'clock spot on Sunday morning. I think we should really get some of our own preachers and preach that gay is good. And we'd have a great choir. | 101 |
Keegan-Michael Key | When you're a child, the most important thing is to be able to live a life of comfort. You want to be sure that the moon goes up at night and the sun comes up in the morning and dad comes home from work. | 101 |
Lesley Gore | I don't know any other lifestyle. I get up in the morning and I really do feel that the world is my oyster, and I start that way, the same as I would if I were preparing to write a song: put a blank piece of paper up on the piano and you go for it. | 101 |
Marc Guggenheim | Try to imagine a character like Batman whose whole life has been about fighting crime, whose whole existence and identity is his war against criminals, and he wakes up one morning to discover there are no criminals. What happens to him? | 101 |
Marcia Gay Harden | Everybody says 'Good Morning' in Harlem because it's true! And that's lovely. | 101 |
Naomi Shihab Nye | You know, those of us who leave our homes in the morning and expect to find them there when we go back - it's hard for us to understand what the experience of a refugee might be like. | 101 |
Peter Riegert | You have to have an ego to be an actor, but you need an ego just to get through life! Unless you want to sit on a corner and suck your thumb, it takes a healthy ego to get up in the morning and say, 'I deserve to be here.' | 101 |
Pierre Dukan | I go jogging for 25 minutes every morning, even if I'm away from home. | 101 |
Shilpa Shetty | I love Chinese food, like steamed dim sum, and I can have noodles morning, noon and night, hot or cold. I like food that's very simple on the digestive system - I tend to keep it light. I love Japanese food too - sushi, sashimi and miso soup. | 101 |
Stuart Rose | I actually think the whole concept of retirement is a bit stupid, so yes, I do want to do something else. There is this strange thing that just because chronologically on a Friday night you have reached a certain age... with all that experience, how can it be that on a Monday morning, you are useless? | 101 |
Thomas Arnold | One's age should be tranquil, as childhood should be playful. Hard work at either extremity of life seems out of place. At midday the sun may burn, and men labor under it; but the morning and evening should be alike calm and cheerful. | 101 |
Tracy Chevalier | As I get older, I use less jewelry - necklace or earrings each morning, not both; my clothes are getting more basic - fewer colours and simpler cuts; and my make-up is stripped back to basics. | 101 |
Betsy Beers | I like to exercise in the morning before work. It puts me in a good mood, which makes my coworkers happy, and jump-starts my brain, which makes me happy. | 101 |
Bobby McFerrin | If I can bring joy into the world, if I can get people to stop thinking about their pain for a moment, or the fact the tomorrow morning they're going to get up and tell their boss off... then I'll be successful. | 101 |
Charles Gwathmey | You have to be able to wake up in the morning and say, 'I've been true.' | 101 |
Gary McCord | He's got an overall flair for the game. It looks to me like he really loves what he does and he can't wait to get up in the morning, go hit some balls and go play. | 101 |
Gautam Singhania | The fun of sitting around Pangong Lake with 40 guys around a fireplace, having a glass of wine... staying in one camp together... that's an experience. Waking up at 5 in the morning, watching the sun come up. You don't do these things in Bombay. | 101 |
Gena Lee Nolin | My children are the reason I laugh, smile and want to get up every morning. | 101 |
Jessica Chastain | I don't want to be in my car all day. I love getting up in the morning in Venice and walking my dogs down to the cafe to get my tea, and then perhaps going to a bookstore and sitting and reading, then walking to the beach. | 101 |
Luke Treadaway | This morning someone sent me a very funny photo of me holding their puppy. We have matching colour jackets. | 101 |
Melanie Laurent | Holiday? Is like, what? I'm a hyperactive girl, so it may be boring for me to be on the beach doing nothing. I just need to find a place for three weeks and work but sleep in the morning, maybe write a little bit, have a glass of red wine. That's my perfect holiday. | 101 |
Ron Santo | Every player had a roommate for out-of-town games, so I had to slip into the bathroom early each morning and secretly take my insulin injection. I feared that if the Cubs found out and I slumped badly, they would attribute it to the diabetes and send me back to the minors - or worse, release me. | 101 |
Sibel Kekilli | It's not my passion to wake up at 6:00 in the morning to do my exercises. Sometimes I really hate it. I'm lazy. | 101 |
Stephen Daldry | I am, in fact, Superman. Every morning I wake up and go into a telephone booth and change my costume, and then go to work. | 101 |
Aaron Neville | Every morning I wake up and thank God. | 101 |
Andrea Jung | There are pros and cons of experience. A con is that you can't look at the business with a fresh pair of eyes and as objectively as if you were a new CEO. Fire yourself on a Friday night and come in on Monday morning as if a search firm put you there as a turn-around leader. Can you be objective and make the bold change? | 101 |
Carmen Agra Deedy | I cannot always write at the same time, in the same place. I work, travel and have a vigorous family life. If I'm stranded in an airport lobby - I write. If I have to wait in a doctor's office - I write. If I have a morning or evening to myself - I write. | 101 |
Caroline Paul | Most people go to the office and sit at a desk. When firefighters go to the office, we might birth a baby in the morning, save a drowning surfer in the afternoon, and run into a fire at night. What could be more interesting than that? | 101 |
George Horace Lorimer | You've got to get up every morning with determination if you're going to go to bed with satisfaction. | 101 |
George M. Humphrey | You can't set a hen in one morning and have chicken salad for lunch. | 101 |
Paulette Goddard | I love doing TV. It's such a breakneck pace, you know. It's kiss and go with your leading man. You meet them in the morning and go right into a clinch. The filming is over before you know their last names. | 101 |
Shalom Harlow | You don't learn style from watching people on a runway. Fashion happens every morning when you wake up. | 101 |
Stelios Haji-Ioannou | When I opened the world's largest Internet cafe, certified by the 'Guinness Book of Records,' in Times Square in New York, I was live on 'Good Morning America,' and for me, that was an achievement. | 101 |
Tara Lipinski | The sound of the blades on the ice in the morning is like smelling fresh coffee. | 101 |
Thomas Howes | You know the stories of a woman saying to Churchill, 'Sir, you're drunk,' and he said to her, 'And you're ugly, but in the morning I'll be sober.' I was really excited to do that scene, but I did get slapped. | 101 |
Traci Bingham | I can't live without my beauty products. I love to be in my bathroom with my candles lit, morning, noon and night. I like taking hot baths and hot showers, using my body scrubs and lotions. | 101 |
Amy Carlson | To play a cop's wife - there's so much in that world, the wives or partners of anyone who is a first responder - it's not an easy job. It's not an easy way to live, to say goodbye to someone in the morning and not know what's going to happen throughout the day. | 101 |
Billy Williams | Mobile is a seaport town, and we ate a lot of seafood. We'd go fishing, we'd catch our fish and we'd eat our fish. It was a ritual on Saturday morning for all my family - my grandfather, my brothers, my uncles, my father - to go fishing, and then the ladies of the family would clean the fish and fry them up. | 101 |
Bobby Ghosh | On the 11th anniversary of 9/11, it is some consolation that the man most responsible for that terrible morning will not be smiling smugly to himself as satellite TV brings to the leafy boulevards of Abbottabad the somber images of New Yorkers commemorating those who perished in the Twin Towers. | 101 |
Chai Jing | Half of the days in 2014, I had to confine my daughter to my home like a prisoner because the air quality in Beijing was so poor. One morning, I saw my daughter banging on the window... The day will come when she asks me, 'Why do you keep me here? What is going to hurt me when I go outside?' | 101 |
Christopher Bond | Change is tough, people don't like it, but it is necessary. Take two aspirins and call me in the morning. | 101 |
Danny Wood | I wake up every morning feeling like I have the best life. | 101 |
Jayma Mays | This morning I was laughing at my cat who was running up the stairs and slipped, and pretended like it didn't happen. | 101 |
Robert Stone | Everybody's after a new morning. What do we have to run up and salute tomorrow? | 101 |
Saffron Aldridge | My view is that life is too short. I'm not being melodramatic or anything, but when your mother dies in your arms - just you and her, and it's one o'clock in the morning, and you're waiting for her to exhale - you just think, life's too bloody short to argue about the little things. | 101 |
Samuel Daniel | Beauty, sweet love, is like the morning dew, Whose short refresh upon tender green, Cheers for a time, but till the sun doth show And straight is gone, as it had never been. | 101 |
Alan Cheuse | The premise of 'Descent' may sound pretty straightforward: One summer morning while vacationing with her family in the foothills of the Rockies, a young girl, a high-school athlete in her senior year, goes out for a run in the higher altitudes - and disappears. | 101 |
Aunjanue Ellis | Every role is a potential lover. I ask: Are they someone I want to wake up to in the morning and go to bed with at night? Do they question my assumptions about life? Consume me to distraction? Make my cry, then clown to make me laugh again? If I say yes, then it's all I need. | 101 |
Charity Shea | I start off my morning with an Acai berry smoothie. I blend the Acai berries with kefir, blueberries, protein powder and peanut butter. I like this first thing in the morning because it's light on my stomach. | 101 |
Duke Snider | Man, if I made one million dollars I would come in at six in the morning, sweep the stands, wash the uniforms, clean out the office, manage the team and play the games. | 101 |
Mary Schapiro | Every morning when I pick up the newspaper and read about an earthquake in Japan or problems in European financial institutions, the first question I ask our staff is 'What is money-market-fund exposure?' | 101 |
Stacey Farber | I remember there were days when - and this is kind of gross - I would sleep in my uniform to save time in the morning and then get up and go to school... it didn't matter because I didn't have to impress anyone, and I didn't have to look cute in class. | 101 |
Abraham Pais | I spent every night until four in the morning on my dissertation, until I came to the point when I could not write another word, not even the next letter. I went to bed. Eight o'clock the next morning I was up writing again. | 101 |
Jennifer Gilmore | I'm a morning person: if I don't get up, put the coffee on and get to my desk by 8, the day has already lost a lot of its promise. | 101 |
Anthony Wayne | I shall begin my march for Camp tomorrow morning. It was not in my power to move until I could procure shoes for the troops almost barefoot. | 101 |
Midge Ure | You think that religion is a thing that is there to help you and to see you through life, and then you wake up one morning and find the entire Irish situation, the civil war that's based on religion. | 101 |
Margaret Forster | I write in the morning, I walk in the afternoon and I read in the evening. It's a very easy, lovely life. | 101 |
Moss Hart | So far as I know, anything worth hearing is not usually uttered at seven o'clock in the morning; and if it is, it will generally be repeated at a more reasonable hour for a larger and more wakeful audience. | 101 |
Jake Lloyd | I used to spend every morning in detention at my old school. | 101 |
Jerome Lawrence | It's always such a joy that you wake up in the morning and there's work to do. | 101 |
John Tenniel | Well, I get my subject on Wednesday night; I think it out carefully on Thursday, and make my rough sketch; on Friday morning I begin, and stick to it all day, with my nose well down on the block. | 101 |
Khalil Gibran | In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed. | 102 |
Alan King | When I was in the hospital they gave me apple juice every morning, even after I told them I didn't like it. I had to get even. One morning, I poured the apple juice into the specimen tube. The nurse held it up and said, 'It's a little cloudy.' I took the tube from her and said, 'Let me run it through again,' and drank it. The nurse fainted. | 102 |
Andy Cohen | I have a Viking stove. The color is butter lemon, and I had to wait several months for it, because that color wasn't available and I really wanted butter lemon! But I don't know that it's seriously ever been cooked on. I mean, I make tea every morning. Does that count? | 102 |
Carl Hiaasen | I never laugh or smile when I am writing. When I come home for lunch after writing all morning, my wife says I look like I just came home from a funeral. This is not bragging. This is an illness. | 102 |
Chuck Schumer | There are two tests in life, more important than any other test. On Monday morning, when you wake up, do you feel in the pit of your stomach you can't wait to go to work? And when you're ready to go home Friday afternoon, do you say, 'I can't wait to go home?' | 102 |
F. Sionil Jose | When I wake up every morning, I thank God for the new day. | 102 |
Hugh Laurie | Driving a motorcycle is like flying. All your senses are alive. When I ride through Beverly Hills in the early morning, and all the sprinklers have turned off, the scents that wash over me are just heavenly. Being House is like flying, too. You're free of the gravity of what people think. | 102 |
Irv Kupcinet | As a kid, I'd get up at 3 in the morning during school vacations to help my father on his bakery-truck route. He didn't get a vacation from that schedule. | 102 |
Jim Carrey | I wake up some mornings and sit and have my coffee and look out at my beautiful garden, and I go, 'Remember how good this is. Because you can lose it.' | 102 |
Larry Page | If you're changing the world, you're working on important things. You're excited to get up in the morning. | 102 |
Liam Neeson | Acting is invigorating. But I don't analyse it too much. It's like a dog smelling where it's going to do its toilet in the morning. | 102 |
Ozzy Osbourne | Somebody said to me this morning, 'To what do you attribute your longevity?' I don't know. I mean, I couldn't have planned my life out better. By all accounts I should be dead! The abuse I put my body through: the drugs, the alcohol, the lifestyle I've lived the last 30 years! | 102 |
Padma Lakshmi | One thing that happens when you're pregnant is that as your stomach starts to stretch. It itches! So I have to keep my belly really lubricated. Every morning, there's a buttering ceremony after I get out of the shower. It's really like basting a turkey with body butter. | 102 |
Peter O'Toole | I woke up one morning to find I was famous. I bought a white Rolls-Royce and drove down Sunset Boulevard, wearing dark specs and a white suit, waving like the Queen Mum. | 102 |
Samuel Butler | Human life is as evanescent as the morning dew or a flash of lightning. | 102 |
Sholom Aleichem | A bachelor is a man who comes to work each morning from a different direction. | 102 |
Uzo Aduba | The first information I consume in the morning is probably 'The New York Times' and then my Twitter feed. I think Twitter is a really fascinating, easy way to stay on top of what stories are out there. | 102 |
Zachary Knighton | 'FlashForward' was on the outs when I was approached with 'Happy Endings.' I literally got the script on a Friday, and on Saturday morning I met with David Caspe, Jamie Tarses, and the Russo brothers. I took the role on that Saturday, and on Monday I was doing a table read. It all happened very fast, but it was super exciting. | 102 |
Zhang Xin | I'm very, very focused on my children. In fact, I'm very religious about having breakfast with them every morning, having dinner with them every evening, and spend all the weekends with them that I don't work. So as long as I'm not traveling, I'm always with them and I go to their soccer and tennis matches. | 102 |
Angie Dickinson | In Rio Bravo when Duke makes love to Feathers, the scene dissolves to the next morning where we see him putting on his vest and almost humming. It was subtle, but you knew what happened. Give me a towel and some blankets any day! | 102 |
Ann Richards | Let me tell you, sisters, seeing dried egg on a plate in the morning is a lot dirtier than anything I've had to deal with in politics. | 102 |
Antonin Artaud | I myself spent nine years in an insane asylum and I never had the obsession of suicide, but I know that each conversation with a psychiatrist, every morning at the time of his visit, made me want to hang myself, realizing that I would not be able to cut his throat. | 102 |
Cary Grant | My formula for living is quite simple. I get up in the morning and I go to bed at night. In between, I occupy myself as best I can. | 102 |
Cheryl Hines | I started playing poker in 2003 during my pregnancy, to distract myself from my awful morning sickness. For months all I did was cry and play Texas Hold'em. | 102 |
Donald Evans | I am on my way to Ghana tomorrow morning and you just need to know that this Administration is very focused on doing all we can to promote economic development in this part of the world, in Africa, throughout Africa, North Africa and sub-Saharan Africa. | 102 |
Ellie Kemper | I'm a morning bird. I love getting up before it's light out if it's possible. I wake up, I have a black coffee. I'm an 86-year-old man. I try to work out first thing to get it over with. When I do it, I feel good because I have the endorphins all day. | 102 |
Gabourey Sidibe | I learned to love myself, because I sleep with myself every night and I wake up with myself every morning, and if I don't like myself, there's no reason to even live the life. | 102 |
Gaston Bachelard | The repose of sleep refreshes only the body. It rarely sets the soul at rest. The repose of the night does not belong to us. It is not the possession of our being. Sleep opens within us an inn for phantoms. In the morning we must sweep out the shadows. | 102 |
Glen Hansard | The muse holds no appointments. You can never call on it. I don't understand people who get up at 9 o'clock in the morning, put on the coffee and sit down to write. | 102 |
J. B. Priestley | I have always been delighted at the prospect of a new day, a fresh try, one more start, with perhaps a bit of magic waiting somewhere behind the morning. | 102 |
John C. Reilly | Animation is a great way to work. No early morning call times, no make-up chair. In live action, you're always fighting the clock; the sun is always going down too soon. | 102 |
Joni Eareckson Tada | My weakness, that is, my quadriplegia, is my greatest asset because it forces me into the arms of Christ every single morning when I get up. | 102 |
Kelli Berglund | I love Demi Lovato's style. It's really different, but it's super chic and has a cool edge to it. I'm always trying to channel her style when going shopping for new clothes or getting dressed in the morning. | 102 |
Meriwether Lewis | A clear cold morning with high wind: we caught in a trap a large gray wolf, and last night obtained in the same way a fox who had for some time infested the neighbourhood of the fort. | 102 |
Michelle Phan | Makeup is no different than clothes and accessories - it's embellishments for your face. And it also gives you creative freedom. You get to have that moment in front the mirror every morning and give yourself self-love. You're making yourself up beautiful, which is essentially self-love. | 102 |
Patrick Duffy | I get up at sunrise. I'm a Buddhist, so I chant in the morning. My wife and I sit and have coffee together, but then it's list-making time. I have carpentry projects. We have roads we keep in repair. It's not back-breaking, but it's certainly aerobic and mildly strenuous. | 102 |
Patty Griffin | There's an imbalance when if a woman goes out for a walk at 3 in the morning and something happens to her it was somehow her fault, and with a man that's not true. | 102 |
Taylor Hicks | I like breakfast sandwiches, and the Krystal Sunriser might be the best breakfast sandwich on Earth. It has a really soft bun and sausage, eggs, and cheese on it. It's great if you're out until 5 or 6 in the morning and you happen to catch the 5:30 first shift. That's what I used to do when I played clubs; I would almost stay out until they opened. | 102 |
Terry McAuliffe | I wake up every morning singing 'The Star-Spangled Banner.' | 102 |
Brunello Cucinelli | I like to have cookies in the morning before I go swimming. | 102 |
Hermann Ebbinghaus | The school-boy doesn't force himself to learn his vocabularies and rules altogether at night, but knows that be must impress them again in the morning. | 102 |
Hilary Rhoda | Maxi dresses are also my best friend. They take me from my morning coffee, to the beach, to nighttime. | 102 |
J. R. Moehringer | In Zurich, in a cafe overlooking the Limmat, I ate butter-drenched white asparagus pulled from the ground that morning; it had the aftertaste of champagne. I've been able to appreciate epic meals in San Francisco, New Orleans, Berlin, Paris, Las Vegas. | 102 |
Kimberly Schlapman | My favorite room in the house is my kitchen. It's definitely the heart and soul of our home. It's where we gather in the morning as a family to start the day, and it's where we wind down at night over supper. | 102 |
Lars Ulrich | If there was no Black Sabbath, I could still possibly be a morning newspaper delivery boy. No fun. | 102 |
Lori Foster | I love the water. Everything about it. Smelling the humidity in the air, seeing the mist rise in the morning, feeling the dew-wet grass on my bare feet. I love watching the fish jump and the geese land. We even have an eagle here that circles every so often. | 102 |
Nico Mirallegro | I'm definitely a morning person. I wake up dead happy, looking forward to having my cereal! | 102 |
Perry Como | We also own a little boat and I'm like a kid with it. I take off early in the morning, fishing rod in tow, and just drift about the ocean all day. | 102 |
Petra Stunt | At the end of the day, I don't need to work, and I think it's good that I have the drive and willpower to get up and do something in the morning even though I don't need to. | 102 |
Tony Parsons | My principal motivation is supporting my family, which is not a bad reason for getting up in the morning. That's always been my motivation - to take care of the people who rely on me. | 102 |
Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands | Sometimes it just means flying from Bogota to New York via Amsterdam to have a day with your kids. When we spend time with them, I think we do our utmost best to be really with them - on vacations or during weekends or even at breakfast in the morning. | 102 |
William Hull | In a few days an officer came to our camp, under a flag of truce, and informed Hamilton, then a captain of artillery, but afterwards the aid of General Washington, that Captain Hale had been arrested within the British lines condemned as a spy, and executed that morning. | 102 |
Aidan Turner | On a beautiful clear Sunday morning, myself and James Nesbitt jumped out of a plane together at 18,000 feet. | 102 |
Charles Kelley | One of my most memorable Thanksgiving memories was probably the first year that me and my two brothers decided to start our annual eating contest. We ate throughout the whole day. We started that morning and weighed ourselves, and at the very end of the night, we weighed ourselves out. And all three of us equally gained five pounds. | 102 |
Charles Olson | This morning of the small snow I count the blessings, the leak in the faucet which makes of the sink time, the drop of the water on water. | 102 |
Donna Air | I love nothing more than taking my dog, Molly, for a long walk on Sunday morning. Then I'll indulge in some Bikram yoga or something fun like reflexology. | 102 |
Dustin Yellin | My father had the bug. Ever since I can remember walking, he was waking me up at 5 in the morning to go to flea markets. As a kid, I couldn't really stand it, but as I grew up, I became that guy, and when I have kids, I am going to be doing the same thing. | 102 |
Gavid Hood | The truth about filmmaking is you have all these ideas and you're trying to convince everybody that they should buy into this idea, but at two o'clock in the morning when you're all on your own you're going, 'Geez, I hope I know what I'm doing. I hope this idea is gonna work.' | 102 |
Jim Rash | With Saturday morning cartoons, you've got to start at 6 A.M., right? | 102 |
Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan | I appreciate my brother, His Highness Sheikh Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the U.A.E. and Ruler of Dubai, and the Council of Ministers, who face every morning challenges, but plan and remove all obstacles to score achievements. | 102 |
Leigh-Allyn Baker | Our traditions have been waking up on Christmas morning and feasting on a southern breakfast. I'm from the South. We eat grits and biscuits and gravy and eggs with Ritz crackers and country ham, bacon, you name it. | 102 |
Luke Nosek | There would really be no reason to get up in the morning if Founders Fund was not willing to invest in companies that were doing important things, great businesses that very few people believe in. | 102 |
Robert A. Cook | Cut your morning devotions into your personal grooming. You would not go out to work with a dirty face. Why start the day with the face of your soul unwashed? | 102 |
Sissy Spacek | Our perception of celebrities in Hollywood is not the reality. The reality of our lives is so much like everyone else's life. We have family members we love, everyone gets up in the morning, they have three meals a day and they go about their business. | 102 |
Stephen Daldry | I never want to make a film. I don't wake up in the morning going, 'Ooh, I'd really love to be on set making a film today'. I'm aware that other contemporary film directors perceive film-making as what they do, as what they have to do. But I would hope that I am more catholic in my tastes. | 102 |
Tim Reid | How did we suddenly become entranced with gangster culture? I saw it this morning on campus. When did the black community say we should all look like criminals? | 102 |
Tom Kite | When I woke up Sunday morning at the Open and stepped outside and felt the wind and rain in my face, I knew I had an excellent chance to win if I just took my time and trusted myself. | 102 |
Tony D'Souza | I once waited on Sean Connery. A long time ago. This was at the Caledonian Hotel in Edinburgh. They closed down the restaurant for him, and when he walked in with his morning paper, all the waitresses started squealing. He was a big guy, bigger than in the movies. | 102 |
Dorothy Malone | We had cocktail parties and I'd stay up until 5 in the morning. | 102 |
Ethel Kennedy | When we lost Bobby, I would wake up in the morning and think, 'He's OK. He's in Heaven, and he's with Jack and a lot of my brothers and sisters and my parents.' So it made it very easy to get through the day thinking he was OK. | 102 |
Laura Leighton | On Christmas morning, we always make breakfast, and everyone eats before we open any presents. I make muffins and homemade applesauce, which I don't think anyone likes as much as I do... I just love the way it makes the house smell! | 102 |
Marguerite Moreau | You were up at 5 o'clock in the morning, and then you'd ride in a caravan, because we didn't have big movie trucks or trailers that is the hardware of a movie camp. | 102 |
Mollie King | I've had my heart broken, and it's the hardest thing. Everyone says, 'Give it time, you'll feel better in the morning.' But you don't. You feel like it's never, ever going to heal - especially during the first few weeks. | 102 |
Moon Unit Zappa | I had a friend whose family had dinner together. The mother would tuck you in at night and make breakfast in the morning. They even had a spare bike for a friend. It just seemed so amazing to me. | 102 |
Soleil Moon Frye | I don't know why you call it morning sickness, because I was sick all day and night! | 102 |
Traci Bingham | I love to be in my bathroom with my candles lit, morning, noon and night. I like taking hot baths and hot showers, using my body scrubs and lotions. | 102 |
Ann Robinson | The results of this survey are shocking and should be a wake-up call to men and women that drinking and smoking too much not only gives you a bad headache in the morning but can affect your ability to start a family. | 102 |
Byron Katie | One morning, in February 1986, out of nowhere, I experienced a realization. In an instant, I discovered that when I believed my stressful thoughts, I suffered, but when I questioned them, I didn't suffer. | 102 |
Cameron van der Burgh | I woke up on the plane this morning and was turning on my phone and I had to put my pin number in. That's when I realized that since the age of 10 I've been using 2012 as my pin number. But now that I've won gold in the 2012 Olympics, I've achieved that goal and, for the first time in 14 years, I'll have to change my pin. | 102 |
Carl Yastrzemski | I think about baseball when I wake up in the morning. I think about it all day and I dream about it at night. The only time I don't think about it is when I'm playing it. | 102 |
Carly Chaikin | I couldn't be luckier to wake up every morning and be so excited to get to work, even if it's five in the morning. | 102 |
Daniel De Leon | He who stands with his face to the East in the morning will have the sun before him. If he does not change his posture, the Earth in the meantime having changed its, he will have the sun no longer before him, but behind. | 102 |
Dichen Lachman | I don't know anyone who hasn't woken up one morning, one day in their life and wish they were someone else, or wish they could do something or wish they were capable of something. | 102 |
Jeffrey Dean Morgan | I would bend over backward to be back on Grey's. Any day, I'll choose lying in bed with Katherine Heigl looking over me over getting thrown against walls by supernatural persons at 5 in the morning. | 102 |
Ma Huateng | If you ask me what I worry about every morning when I wake up, it's that I don't understand future mainstream Internet users' habits. | 102 |
Mark Romanek | The trick is falling in love with something enough, and being excited enough by something, to want to make that year and a half or two year commitment and wake up every morning at 5 to go deal with a whole day full of problems to get it up on the screen. You really need passion. | 102 |
Meg Tilly | There we times when everybody in the house has the flu. You're cleaning up vomit and it's 2 in the morning, and you're wishing there was somebody else there to help you. | 102 |
Merry Clayton | My dad sung and played piano. But he was also a man of God. He was a minister. So when Sam Cooke would come in town, you know, with The Soul Stirrers at that time, he was singing gospel, they would end up at my dad's church, and it would always be a guest singer for Sunday morning. | 102 |
Sarah Ferguson | When Andrew went with the girls, we were talking all morning and he was saying, 'It's okay. Just remember we had such a good day. Our wedding was so perfect.' Because we're such a unit together. He made me feel very part of the day on April the 29th. | 102 |
Steven Klein | I was digging in the backyard to get my own clay and making pottery. And then I started taking pictures and built my own darkroom. I would go out at six in the morning and just take pictures. | 102 |
Constance Jablonski | I have a huge breakfast every morning because I never know if I'll have time for lunch, especially during Fashion Week. It keeps my mood positive all day. And my parents taught me to have tons of fruit and vegetables, which I think helps my skin. | 102 |
Du Fu | This morning's scene is good and fine, Long rain has not harmed the land. | 102 |
Rachael MacFarlane | I grew up, obviously, watching tons of animation; Saturday morning cartoons or anything that we could get our hands on. And then when 'The Simpsons' premiered, that just kind of changed the landscape of everything. We hadn't had prime time animations since 'The Flintstones.' | 102 |
Joe Murray | Work is a prayer, and I start off every morning dedicating it to our Creator. | 102 |
Marie Corelli | I never married because there was no need. I have three pets at home which answer the same purpose as a husband. I have a dog which growls every morning, a parrot which swears all afternoon, and a cat that comes home late at night. | 102 |
Matt Barr | Food is a huge passion of mine, and because I want to eat whatever I want, I run every morning, and then I do weights a few times a week. It's just how I can balance eating pancakes in the morning, a big burger for lunch, and then a fat steak and cheesecake at night. | 102 |
Maud Welzen | I like to eat yogurt in the morning. It's easy and quick and available anywhere. | 102 |
Robert Ripley | My aunt had a season ticket for the Friday afternoon concerts, and I would go down for lessons. My lessons were Saturday morning. | 102 |
Alistair MacLeod | There is a kind of belief among my students that things that are true are interesting. But most things that are true are not interesting. Four pages describing how I got up and brushed my teeth in the morning would kill you. | 102 |
Anthony Mann | I had always thought, for 'Roman Empire,' I would love to do the death of Marcus Aurelius in the snow. One morning I woke up, and it was really snowing. | 102 |
Jade Jones | I just like to have cereal in the morning, but it'll be those cluster things - it's a bit random - and through the day, I like just pasta, plain pasta with a bit of sauce on it, never too much in case I get a bad belly... and jelly just before I go on for a bit of energy! | 102 |
Jordi Molla | Since I am from Spain, once the morning has gone, I like to take a nap while falling asleep to black and white movies. It feels less lonely. There is a comfort in hearing their voices, like when you're a child and your mother tells you a story before bedtime. | 102 |
Michael Collins | Early this morning, I signed my death warrant. | 102 |
Jonathan Tucker | I grew up, as I joke around, in the 'People's Republic of Charlestown' in the city of Boston. And I was blessed to be raised right there on Monument Square in Charlestown, and every morning I'd hop on the bus and go on a 45-minute ride out to the suburbs in Brooklyn for elementary school. And I got to have my seat, really, in both worlds. | 102 |
Jeremy Hardy | Being in the latter stages of life means the morning is unkind to the reflection. It takes a few hours for the creases to fall out. By about 4 P.M., I look quite nice. | 102 |
Jules Feiffer | Getting out of bed in the morning is an act of false confidence. | 102 |
William Arthur Ward | Opportunities are like sunrises. If you wait too long, you miss them. | 103 |
P. T. Barnum | There is no such thing in the world as luck. There never was a man who could go out in the morning and find a purse full of gold in the street to-day, and another to-morrow, and so on, day after day: He may do so once in his life; but so far as mere luck is concerned, he is as liable to lose it as to find it. | 103 |
Zora Neale Hurston | It seems to me that trying to live without friends is like milking a bear to get cream for your morning coffee. It is a whole lot of trouble, and then not worth much after you get it. | 103 |
Dean Martin | I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day. | 103 |
Frank Auerbach | It seems to me madness to wake up in the morning and do something other than paint, considering that one may not wake up the following morning. | 103 |
George Edward Woodberry | 'Old times' never come back and I suppose it's just as well. What comes back is a new morning every day in the year, and that's better. | 103 |
George Steiner | We know that a man can read Goethe or Rilke in the evening, that he can play Bach and Schubert, and go to his day's work at Auschwitz in the morning. | 103 |
George Washington Carver | Nothing is more beautiful than the loveliness of the woods before sunrise. | 103 |
Ginnifer Goodwin | I really am super lazy and doing long hair, especially mine, is a big pain in the butt. It's filled with cowlicks and kinks and curls and frizz - and it was taking too much time in the morning. | 103 |
Henry L. Stimson | We had news this morning of another successful atomic bomb being dropped on Nagasaki. These two heavy blows have fallen in quick succession upon the Japanese and there will be quite a little space before we intend to drop another. | 103 |
Jim Davis | Good morning is a contradiction of terms. | 103 |
Marc Andreessen | If you're the village blacksmith and a model T comes along, you better become a mechanic. People's lives are better when they get news online versus having to wait for the morning paper. It's a lot more efficient, a lot more real time, a lot less waste. | 103 |
Nicole Scherzinger | You cry and you scream and you stomp your feet and you shout. You say, 'You know what? I'm giving up, I don't care.' And then you go to bed and you wake up and it's a brand new day, and you pick yourself back up again. | 103 |
Patrick Wilson | I try to shave at night so my skin has a chance to settle by the early morning call-time. | 103 |
Q-Tip | In theory, people would pick progression every time over being idle. But if you look at us as a culture, as a people, you would say that if you get up at five o'clock in the morning, eat your breakfast, go to work, make money, pay your bills, you're progressing, when you're still doing what's comfortable. | 103 |
Shah Rukh Khan | Cinema in India is like brushing your teeth in the morning. You can't escape it. | 103 |
Yotam Ottolenghi | Braising eggs in a flavoursome, aromatic sauce is all the rage. It is warming and comforting, ideal for the morning when you are not normally up for a great culinary challenge. | 103 |
Baz Luhrmann | Sydney in general is eclectic. You can be on that brilliant blue ocean walk in the morning and then within 20 minutes you can be in a completely vast suburban sprawl or an Italian or Asian suburb, and it's that mix of people, it's that melting pot of people that give it its vital personality. | 103 |
Christopher Mintz-Plasse | The Weezer 'Blue' Album is a classic. I think My Morning Jacket's 'Circuital' is a great album to have. Any Led Zeppelin album. Pink Floyd 'The Dark Side Of The Moon' or 'Animals.' I always catch myself at concerts being like, 'Oh, I just stared at the drummer for 15 straight minutes.' I study them. | 103 |
Emanuel Cleaver | Hope is the motivation that empowers the unemployed, enabling them to get out of bed every single morning with unbounded enthusiasm as they look for work. | 103 |
Ernest Cline | I feel like I was hit by all of geek culture at once while I was growing up in the '70s and '80s. Saturday morning cartoons like 'Star Blazers' and 'Robotech.' Live action Japanese shows like 'Ultraman' and 'The Space Giants.' | 103 |
Graham Parker | I went to Morocco, joined a band called Pegasus, ran out of money, went to Gibraltar and worked on the docks, writing songs about the sun and the morning and the birds. | 103 |
Heather Morris | I put on lip balm first thing in the morning and always use it before I swipe on my red lipstick. | 103 |
Herb Alpert | I wake up in the morning, I do a little stretching exercises, pick up the horn and play. | 103 |
Jack LaLanne | Do you know how many calories are in butter and cheese and ice cream? Would you get your dog up in the morning for a cup of coffee and a donut? | 103 |
John O'Donohue | We live between the act of awakening and the act of surrender. Each morning, we awaken to the light and the invitation to a new day in the world of time; each night, we surrender to the dark to be taken to play in the world of dreams where time is no more. | 103 |
Laura Marling | I get up, go and get a coffee, and go do the crossword - I'm loyal to one particular paper, the 'Guardian' - and that's my idea of a perfect morning. | 103 |
Lee Pearson | I'm a gay disabled man who has become very successful. I don't get up in the morning and think I'm inspirational; I just get up thinking that I love horses. | 103 |
Richard Whately | Lose an hour in the morning, and you will spend all day looking for it. | 103 |
Rodney Atkins | I am so excited this year getting to play the 85th Anniversary Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Everyone knows on Thanksgiving morning to get up, turn on the TV and watch the parade, so to be an actual participant is going to be fun and I'm looking forward to it. I am gonna have to put on my deer hunting gear, though, to stay warm! | 103 |
Shirley Knight | This house was our dream-the gardens, the study, even the swimming pool. Even though I can't see John when I wake up in the morning, I can always feel him here with me. | 103 |
Sinclair Lewis | What is love? It is the morning and the evening star. | 103 |
Taylor Lautner | You show up in Paris, and on the drive from the airport to the hotel you're like, 'This is so cool! I want to see something! I want to go to the Eiffel Tower!' And then you leave the next morning. You think, Oh, I didn't get to do anything. I tell people: I've been just about everywhere, but I've seen nothing. | 103 |
Allison Williams | One of my favorite things to do is to play music really loud and dance my butt off in the morning. I'll do it alone in my apartment. You can't have a bad day after that. | 103 |
Brian Jacques | I still pinch meself when I wake up of a morning. Who ever thought I'd be a children's author - let alone a best-selling children's author? | 103 |
Bruce Catton | In this respect early youth is exactly like old age; it is a time of waiting for a big trip to an unknown destination. The chief difference is that youth waits for the morning limited and age waits for the night train. | 103 |
Christina Perri | I'm a total protein shake junkie nerd. I get creative every morning - you never know what you're gonna get in my shake... fruit? Peanut butter? Ice-cream? | 103 |
Clarence Budington Kelland | I get up in the morning, torture a typewriter until it screams, then stop. | 103 |
Gautam Gambhir | I can bat in the morning, afternoon, evening, night, on ice, desert, wherever and whenever. It is almost nirvana for me. It takes me away from the stresses of life. | 103 |
Muddy Waters | I got up one Christmas morning and we didn't have nothing to eat. We didn't have an apple, we didn't have an orange, we didn't have a cake, we didn't have nothing. | 103 |
Reid Scott | The secret to my 5 o'clock shadow is a little device called the George Michael 3000 Custom Beard Trimmer and Personal Massager. Just kidding. I actually shave every morning, and thanks to my vast knowledge of Eastern philosophy and mysticism, I will my facial hair to grow to the exact same length each day. Dave Grohl taught me that one. | 103 |
Becki Newton | I keep my perfume in the fridge. If someone sees me in the morning pushing aside the eggs to grab my perfume, it might look a little odd, but it's so refreshing to spray cold fragrance on your skin. | 103 |
Caprice Bourret | Nothing is better than waking up in the morning and being excited to go into work. | 103 |
Chris Kattan | I can't stop being in parades. I just love dancing on floats that move really slowly on the city streets in the early morning. | 103 |
Malaika Arora Khan | Every year, like a good Catholic, I wait for Christmas. Putting up the lights, decorating the tree, making sweets and then unwrapping gifts on Christmas morning... it's a tradition my family has followed since I was very little. | 103 |
Michael Weatherly | My wife gets pampered pretty well. She's had me trained since she was pregnant, when I started making her oatmeal with fresh berries every morning. | 103 |
Sarah Chalke | Your home should be your home. People shouldn't be allowed to use whatever crazy lenses they use to catch you waking up in the morning. | 103 |
Shenae Grimes | When I go outside in the morning for coffee, I'm not going to spend forty-five minutes getting ready. I just don't care. | 103 |
Shepard Smith | In New York, I like it when you can get bagels at 3 in the morning. | 103 |
Sugar Ray Robinson | You always say 'I'll quit when I start to slide', and then one morning you wake up and realize you've done slid. | 103 |
Catherynne M. Valente | Every morning is a battle between the superego and the id, and I am a mere foot soldier with mud and a snooze button on her shield. | 103 |
Chubby Checker | Homey don't quit. What else are you gonna do? It's like those guys in the cartoon they get up in the morning, check the clock and fight all day and after it's over they check the clock and go home. That's how it goes. | 103 |
George Aiken | If we were to wake up some morning and find that everyone was the same race, creed and color, we would find some other causes for prejudice by noon. | 103 |
Jenson Button | To drive an F1 car you have to be a little mad. On the morning of a race there's a mix of excitement and fear. If it's a wet track, then it's worse as you're not in control most of the time, which is the thing all drivers fear the most. | 103 |
Martha Reeves | The morning after my high-school graduation found me up early job hunting. The dream of college I put on the back burner. | 103 |
Toots Thielemans | You can be in Tokyo or Alberta at four in the morning in your hotel and you can still practice if you feel like it. A trombone cannot do that at four in the morning. | 103 |
Alanna Ubach | You really have to be a morning person if you want to be a teacher. | 103 |
Billy Horschel | I'm not a guy who needs to drink coffee or anything to get myself going in the morning. I wake up, and I'm full of energy. | 103 |
Chelan Simmons | Every girl/woman in the world has flaws. Instead of focusing on your flaws when you look in a mirror, focus on the parts of you that you love; try to do this every morning. You will ooze confidence all day long. | 103 |
D. L. Hughley | No matter how bad things are, you can at least be happy that you woke up this morning. | 103 |
James Rollins | I think the worst and most insidious procrastination for me is research. I will be looking for some bit of fact or figure to include in the novel, and before I know, I've wasted an entire morning delving into that subject matter without a word written. | 103 |
Jayma Mays | My mom was a big 'Smurfs' fan, so she would force me to watch every Saturday morning. I had no choice in the matter. I would jump downstairs on Saturday morning, 'Hurray, cartoons!' and she would say, 'Smurfs! That's what you're watching.' | 103 |
Joseph Murray | Work is a prayer. And I start off every morning dedicating it to our Creator. | 103 |
Matthew Quick | When I was in high school, I used to have breakfast with my grandpa every morning. He instilled a lot of values in me: hard work, loyalty. He grew up during the Great Depression in Philly in poverty - he didn't have enough to eat as a kid. Sometimes his family would get kicked out of their apartment because they couldn't pay the rent. | 103 |
Merry Clayton | I got put out of my church choir because my pastor said, 'We can't have baby sister singing the blues and coming in here and singing on Sunday morning.' | 103 |
Michelle Kwan | I got a call this morning, and it was from Nancy Kerrigan, wishing me luck. She wished me luck and sent me all her good wishes. | 103 |
Michelle Trachtenberg | Ice skating is very difficult. It takes a lot of discipline and a lot of hard work. It's fun, but you are there on the ice every morning freezing and trying to do these moves and these tricks. | 103 |
Richard Grasso | Our systems are all go. At 9:30 Monday morning trading will resume on both markets, and the message will be given to criminals who foisted this on America that they lost. | 103 |
Roger Rosenblatt | The only reason I wanted 'Making Toast' as the title is that it is a simple gesture of moving on. Every morning there's the bread and you make the toast and you start the day. | 103 |
Anthony LaPaglia | I can't find my car keys in the morning. Trying to get out of my house is a nightmare. 'Where's my wallet? Where are my keys? I have to go find a missing person.' | 103 |
Marsha Sinetar | Burning desire to be or do something gives us staying power - a reason to get up every morning or to pick ourselves up and start in again after a disappointment. | 103 |
Ruth Park | In a still hot morning, the tide went out and didn't come back in. This was not a spectacular event. The sea did not roll up like a scroll, like the sky in Revelations. It quietly withdrew. | 103 |
Stephen Dobyns | I like it to be quiet, and it usually occurs in the morning. There are three or four places in my house where I can write and I like to keep moving around. The moment I find myself falling into a necessary routine, I change it. I'd rather not accumulate superstitions. | 103 |
Anthony Caro | Early One Morning takes time and, I mean, all things like that I felt were very important. | 103 |
Josh Bowman | My workout regimen at the moment is nonexistent. I wake up in the morning and brush my teeth. My toothbrush and deodorant are my only dumbbells. That's about it. | 103 |
Marcus Aurelius | When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love. | 104 |
Chanakya | A good wife is one who serves her husband in the morning like a mother does, loves him in the day like a sister does and pleases him like a prostitute in the night. | 104 |
Elbert Hubbard | Be pleasant until ten o'clock in the morning and the rest of the day will take care of itself. | 104 |
Bonnie Raitt | Distribution has really changed. You can make a record with a laptop in the morning and have it up on YouTube in the afternoon and be a star overnight. The talent on YouTube is incredible, and it can spread like wildfire. The downside is that it's very hard to convince the younger generation that they should pay for music. | 104 |
Curt Schilling | I had the perfect job for a gamer. From February to October, I'd get up at 7 in the morning with nothing to do but play games until I had to be at the park around 1 or 2 o'clock. When I got back after the game, I played until 3 or 4 in the morning. | 104 |
Chrissy Teigen | My beauty tricks revolve around eyes. For the early morning shoots, I pop eye pads in the freezer the night before, and when I take them out in the morning they are already cold and active and are great under my eyes. I keep my eye pads right next to my red velvet Ben & Jerry's in the freezer. | 104 |
David Hockney | I draw flowers every day and send them to my friends so they get fresh blooms every morning. | 104 |
Erich Fromm | Who will tell whether one happy moment of love or the joy of breathing or walking on a bright morning and smelling the fresh air, is not worth all the suffering and effort which life implies. | 104 |
Ernie Banks | When I wake up in the morning, I feel like a billionaire without paying taxes. | 104 |
Glenn Beck | Let me tell you, it is still morning in America. It just happens to be kind of a head pounding, hung over for four hours in America - and it's shaping up to be a nasty day, but its still morning in America. | 104 |
Ian St. John | Well, he doesn't make me laugh. I think I've got a fair sense of humour but I can't really see it in him. I've listened to his show on the radio on a Saturday morning, and that's a load of mince as well. | 104 |
Joan of Arc | Get up tomorrow early in the morning, and earlier than you did today, and do the best that you can. Always stay near me, for tomorrow I will have much to do and more than I ever had, and tomorrow blood will leave my body above the breast. | 104 |
Kevin Garnett | Too much coffee. Too much coffee and Gatorade. It's a hell of a mix. If you're ever tired in the morning, just try that mix, and tell me what you think. | 104 |
Liam Neeson | Some mornings you wake up and think, gee I look handsome today. Other days I think, what am I doing in the movies? I wanna go back to Ireland and drive a forklift. | 104 |
Miles Davis | I'm always thinking about creating. My future starts when I wake up every morning... Every day I find something creative to do with my life. | 104 |
Mother Angelica | I do not ask for the riches that perish or the fame that fades away like a morning mist. | 104 |
Nicola Formichetti | Having plants and flowers in my space makes me feel very calm and Zen. For me, it's important to meditate every morning to be very clear in the head, and nature really helps me do the same thing. | 104 |
Stella McCartney | I am a fashion designer. I'm not an environmentalist. When I get up in the morning, number one I'm a mother and a wife, and number two I design clothes. So the main thing I need to do is create, hopefully, exquisitely beautiful, desirable objects for my customer. | 104 |
Bill Rancic | Dear Chicago, when I wake up in the morning and see your skyline - the terra cotta of the Wrigley Building, the height of the Willis Tower, the shiny sides of my beloved Trump Tower - I know I'm home. I feel a certain energy walking between your spires, but recognize that what makes you special to me is that my roots are here. | 104 |
Bryan Batt | As a rule, I try to avoid the French Quarter because of the crowds, especially Bourbon Street. But hey, some people love it. A great, wild, adult thing to see is the costume competition in front of the bar Oz on Bourbon early morning on Fat Tuesday. | 104 |
Cameron Russell | I usually decide what to wear in the morning, but sometimes, I'll have a favorite coat or sweater or shoes, and I'll wear them everyday for a week! | 104 |
Danny Brown | Since I was a kid, I'd wake up every morning hearing a voice say, 'You're the greatest rapper ever.' I'm trying to prove that voice right. | 104 |
Debi Mazar | On the morning of Thanksgiving, I would wake up to the home smelling of all good things, wafting upstairs to my room. I would set the table with the fancy silverware and china and hope that my parents and grandmother wouldn't have the annual Thanksgiving fight about Richard Nixon. | 104 |
Francis Parkman | Four men are missing; R., Sorel and two emigrants. They set out this morning after buffalo, and have not yet made their appearance; whether killed or lost, we cannot tell. | 104 |
Gina Carano | I wake up every morning and I surprise myself. I wake up to a new me. | 104 |
Jeb Bush | I don't wake up each morning saying, 'Oh, wow, it's me. I think I'm the cat's meow. I'm the best.' | 104 |
Meriwether Lewis | We had high and boisterous winds last night and this morning: the Indians continue to purchase repairs with grain of different kinds. | 104 |
Mika Brzezinski | My salary situation at 'Morning Joe' wasn't right. I made five attempts to fix it, then realized I'd made the same mistake every time: I apologised for asking. | 104 |
Ron Fournier | We, the people. Manifest Destiny. Conceived in liberty. Fear itself. Ask not. Morning in America. United we stand. Yes, we can. In times of great change and tumult, presidents seek to inspire beleaguered Americans by reminding them of their national identity. | 104 |
T. C. Boyle | I think the best endings bring you back in rather than close things off with absolute finality. I'm not saying they necessarily have to be ambiguous, but we don't always need to know what happens when everyone wakes up tomorrow morning. | 104 |
Trinny Woodall | My first proper job was as a commodities broker. I went off to work every morning in an '80s power suit. I couldn't afford a good one, so I'd buy nice buttons instead and make it look better than it actually was. | 104 |
William Dampier | Among the New Hollanders whom we were thus engaged with, there was one who by his appearance and carriage, as well in the morning as this afternoon, seemed to be the chief of them, and a kind of prince or captain among them. | 104 |
Brad D. Smith | I am a dichotomy of tastes. I'm big on water, and I do a protein drink in the morning, but then I eat off the kids' menu after that. So, there's only like six foods I like. I like quesadillas. I like hamburgers. I like sushi. I like pizza, PB&J, or breakfast any time of the day. | 104 |
Caroline Corr | Waking up with a bad head in the morning is difficult sometimes. | 104 |
Donald E. Westlake | I loved it, but social reality impeded. Now I wander in here at 9 in the morning or so, and come back for a while in the afternoon. I am a very lenient boss. | 104 |
Graeme Le Saux | In the last year my wife has noticed me struggling to get downstairs on a Sunday morning. I've two young children and football has been so good to me over the years I don't want to spoil it. | 104 |
Harriet Walter | As long as I am still interested and curious, I enjoy getting up in the morning, but I can't say I have a happy smile on my face 24/7. | 104 |
Tony Gwynn | When I wake up in the morning, I don't think of myself as being better than anybody else. I think of myself as a good hitter. | 104 |
Annie Baker | I was a very self-righteous 15-25 year old. Anyway, I wake up every morning and thank God I'm not a kid anymore. | 104 |
Cassie Scerbo | Breakfast is my favorite way to start off the day. This is usually what I order every morning on set: egg whites scrambled with broccoli and a side of well-done turkey bacon. Sometimes I add a bit of feta cheese. | 104 |
Regis Philbin | I've done the best I can with the morning show. I made it a morning show. We have the coffee cup, you have the morning papers, you know, it's got that feel to it, that's what I wanted. | 104 |
Simon Newcomb | The result was that, if it happened to clear off after a cloudy evening, I frequently arose from my bed at any hour of the night or morning and walked two miles to the observatory to make some observation included in the programme. | 104 |
Lou Boudreau | As far as sleeping goes, you're up and ready to go at six in the morning. Spring training was always a combination of relaxing and working, and I missed that quite a bit. I missed being around the ball field. A baseball. A bat. The smell of the uniform, you might say. Talking baseball. Seeing opponents as well as the Cubs. | 104 |
Maynard Webb | I used to pride myself on being the first in the office in the morning and one of the last to leave at night. Now, that's so dated: It's not about effort, it's about outcomes. | 104 |
Ray Davies | When I wrote the song, I had the sea near Bombay in mind. We stayed at a hotel by the sea, and the fishermen come up at five in the morning and they were all chanting. And we went on the beach and we got chased by a mad dog - big as a donkey. | 104 |
Charles Peguy | Homer is new this morning, and perhaps nothing is as old as today's newspaper. | 104 |
Jackson Browne | I love to read. I love to stretch. In the morning, I get up, and if I'm not in a hurry, I will lie on the floor on a rug, look through some books and magazines, and maybe listen to music and try to do stretching exercises to tune up. | 104 |
Mac Davis | There was a chance for me to write one song for the section where Elvis sat in his black leather outfit and sang the old hits. At eight oclock the next morning I had written Memories. | 104 |
Ronnie O'Sullivan | Running clears my mind, and gives me a reason to get out of bed in the morning. | 104 |
Silas Weir Mitchell | I was in New York for a little while, doing some really bad theater. I did some great stuff, too, but there were Saturday morning theater performances in one-third-filled church basements. So, I paid my dues. | 104 |
Chris Cuomo | You wake up in the morning; what do you want to know? You want to know what happened overnight. You want to know if you're safe. You want to know if you're family's safe. | 104 |
John Cheever | It was a splendid summer morning and it seemed as if nothing could go wrong. | 104 |
Jarrett J. Krosoczka | Every single item that we come into contact with on a daily basis has been designed by an artist. From the toothbrush we use in the morning, to the defibrillator that could save our lives, an artist is behind the design. | 104 |
Dalai Lama | Old friends pass away, new friends appear. It is just like the days. An old day passes, a new day arrives. The important thing is to make it meaningful: a meaningful friend - or a meaningful day. | 105 |
Anna Quindlen | After all those years as a woman hearing 'not thin enough, not pretty enough, not smart enough, not this enough, not that enough,' almost overnight I woke up one morning and thought, 'I'm enough.' | 105 |
Bill Goldberg | You wrestle one night, get up the next morning and fly out to the next city. You try to work out, you try to get some food into you and, lo and behold, you have to go work again. You are living out of a suitcase. | 105 |
Domenico Dolce | My morning routine is quite common: I have breakfast at home while reading the newspaper, I take a shower, get dressed, a spray of cologne, and I am ready to go! | 105 |
Donatella Versace | I think glamour all the time. I wake up in the morning and I'm already thinking glamour. | 105 |
E. B. White | I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day. | 105 |
Erin Heatherton | Even if you don't have time for a big workout, stretching in the morning and night really changes your body. | 105 |
Gilbert Gottfried | With me, traveling for work is arriving at the airport, checking into the hotel, leaving the hotel the next morning at 4 or 5 to do something like 'The Jimmy and Jackie Captain Crazy Morning Zoo,' doing a bunch of those in a row, then going back to the hotel, and then finally going to the club. | 105 |
Ishmael Beah | I had a very simple, unremarkable and happy life. And I grew up in a very small town. And so my life was made up of, you know, in the morning going to the river to fetch water - no tap water, and no electricity - and, you know, bathing in the river, and then going to school, and playing soccer afterwards. | 105 |
Lily James | I love to start the morning with a mist spray, especially after a night out. | 105 |
Nellie Bly | How can a doctor judge a woman's sanity by merely bidding her good morning and refusing to hear her pleas for release? Even the sick ones know it is useless to say anything, for the answer will be that it is their imagination. | 105 |
Peter O'Toole | We were doing it under the most extraordinary circumstances, but the first out of the tent in the morning would be David Lean. He said to me on the very first day of shooting, Pete, this is the beginning of a great adventure. | 105 |
Sophia Bush | Your body tells you what it needs, and if you sleep past your alarm on a Saturday morning, it's probably because you need the sleep. | 105 |
Tia Mowry | The worst part about pregnancy would definitely have to be my nausea. I don't know why it's just called morning sickness because morning sickness never just happened in the morning for me and it's not happening just in the morning for my sister. | 105 |
Usain Bolt | Manners is the key thing. Say, for instance, when you're growing up, you're walking down the street, you've got to tell everybody good morning. Everybody. You can't pass one person. | 105 |
Utada Hikaru | I squeeze oranges every morning to make juice. | 105 |
Wilbur Wright | We could hardly wait to get up in the morning. | 105 |
Ben Hogan | I couldn't wait for the sun to come up the next morning so that I could get out on the course again. | 105 |
Elizabeth Peyton | No one is famous when they wake up in the morning, so it's nice seeing people in moments when they're just being themselves. | 105 |
Gail Simmons | I never really drank coffee in college, but now I'm on my feet all day and out all night and can't believe it hasn't always been in my life. When morning comes I crave it. | 105 |
James Herriot | I am never at my best in the early morning, especially a cold morning in the Yorkshire spring with a piercing March wind sweeping down from the fells, finding its way inside my clothing, nipping at my nose and ears. | 105 |
Kevin Barry | I remember, as a child, a particular groan that my father would sound when he crawled from the bed in the morning. I hear the same groan now, precisely, every morning, when I emerge from my own lair. It's more than an expression of physical weariness - it's an aching of the soul. Even the groans get passed down. | 105 |
Leonard Lauder | Every morning, I eat one fat-free yogurt with a sliced peach when peaches are in season, and one thin slice of whole-wheat bread. The same thing. I don't want to get fat. And I want to keep my fitness. | 105 |
Meriwether Lewis | The rain, which had continued yesterday and last night, ceased this morning. We then proceeded, and after passing two small islands about ten miles further, stopped for the night at Piper's landing, opposite another island. | 105 |
Samuel Gompers | Do I believe in arbitration? I do. But not in arbitration between the lion and the lamb, in which the lamb is in the morning found inside the lion. | 105 |
Satyajit Ray | Most of the top actors and actresses may be working in ten or twelve films at the same time, so they will give one director two hours and maybe shoot in Bombay in the morning and Madras in the evening. It happens. | 105 |
Chetan Bhagat | Let's be honest: the trappings of investment banking are quite tempting. I do miss it sometimes. And to be honest, there was a time I'd read the 'WSJ' in the morning, and for years I have done that. | 105 |
Deion Sanders | If I don't fish in the morning, I fish in the evening. | 105 |
Eric Bristow | I have two bowls of confidence for breakfast each morning. | 105 |
Edward Everett | And now the momentous day, a day to be forever remembered in the annals of the country, arrived. Early in the morning on the 1st of July the conflict began. | 105 |
Kathy Najimy | It really depends, but, generally speaking, just because of the mechanics of it, voice-over is easier because there is no hair, no makeup, no wardrobe, no fittings, no line memorizing. You don't have to me woken up in Russia at 6 in the morning and go film a scene. It's just easier on the body, the family life to do voice-overs. | 105 |
Lance Loud | I had been found in a mud puddle at 4:30 in the morning. | 105 |
Philip Gibbs | It was so quiet that morning in Paris that the heels of my two companions and myself were loud on the deserted pavements. It was a city of shuttered shops, and barred windows, and deserted avenues. | 105 |
Richard Lewis | If you want to devote yourself to the arts, you'd better do it strictly from passion, because there is zero guarantee that you'll get anywhere. The hardest thing is dealing with business people who have nothing to do with your art. They could care less that you're up at 4:30 in the morning writing a joke. Don't expect any sympathy from anybody. | 105 |
Samantha Morton | I will check the internet for at least an hour every morning scanning worldwide news to do with child abuse. So if you're constantly putting yourself in an environment where you're checking up on social economics or homelessness problems, if you keep yourself aware of it, you don't really have a day off. | 105 |
Sanford I. Weill | So it's the kind of business where you can't wait to get up in the morning and read the papers, or listen to what's on the news, and you know, how the world's going to change. | 105 |
Sophie Kinsella | My earliest, most impactful encounter with a book was when I was seven and awoke early on Christmas morning to find Roald Dahl's 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' in my stocking. I had never been so excited by the sight of a book - and have possibly never been since! | 105 |
Bob Dole | You feel a little older in the morning. By noon I feel about 55. | 105 |
Buck Owens | You get up about 2-3 o'clock in the morning and get through about 7 or 8 and 12 hours later you start all over. That's the worst kind of work a person can do. You have to do these two shifts to get one day. | 105 |
Clare Short | People have accused me of being in favor of globalization. This is equivalent to accusing me of being in favor of the sun rising in the morning. | 105 |
Jennifer Love Hewitt | I fall asleep feeling beautiful. Then, in the morning, before I leave the house, I say five things I love about myself, like 'You have really pretty eyes.' That way I can go out into the world with that little bit of extra confidence. It's a feel-good protein shake in my back pocket in case someone messes with me that day. | 105 |
Jim Rash | I remember lying on the floor of my room, staring at a black-and-white television for most of the '80s - watching 'Diff'rent Strokes,' 'Facts of Life,' 'Silver Spoons,' Saturday morning cartoons, and 'Murder, She Wrote' while eating an insane amount of Stouffer's French bread pizza. I was sucked into it all. | 105 |
June Carter Cash | One morning, about four o'clock, I was driving my car just about as fast as I could. I thought, Why am I out this time of night? I was miserable, and it came to me: I'm falling in love with somebody I have no right to fall in love with. | 105 |
Marv Levy | When I was twelve, I went hunting with my father and we shot a bird. He was laying there and something struck me. Why do we call this fun to kill this creature who was as happy as I was when I woke up this morning. | 105 |
Regis Philbin | It means a lot in my business and its a wonderful feeling to be recognized for what you have done over a lifetime, but I didn't go crazy. I still eat my cereal in the morning, have a sandwich in the afternoon, go to bed at night. You know, nothing really different. | 105 |
Allan McNish | My very first car was a grey Alfa Romeo Alfasud, which I got in 1987. But, in our family, all cars were for sale - so they might be there in the morning and were gone at night. In the mid-90s, I joined Porsche and the Carrera was the car, and the Carrera 4S was the one they gave me. As a wee boy from Dumfries, I couldn't believe it. | 105 |
Ana Ortiz | I need to eat before a workout. If I exercise in the morning, I'll have a little oatmeal, cereal, or a hard-boiled egg with toast. If I go in the afternoon, I'll eat a turkey sandwich with cheese for lunch. | 105 |
Beanie Sigel | I could wake up six in the morning, go downstairs and record. I learned how to use ProTools and everything. Whenever I felt it, I could record. | 105 |
Daniel Pauly | In the Java Sea in Indonesia, I have seen fishers going out in the morning, six of them going out and coming back with five pounds of fish. That is the end point, a pound of fish per person per day to sell for rice. That's where fisheries go if you let it happen. That's where it stabilizes. These people cannot feed their families. | 105 |
Don Winslow | I start work at 5 in the morning and I have a wicked insomnia problem. | 105 |
Jan Chipchase | The mobile phone is used from when you get up in the morning and is often the last thing you interact with at night. | 105 |
Robert Forster | Well, you know what? The actor still gets up in the morning, if he's still got something to work with, you go out there and you do it. Never quit! | 105 |
Ami Ayalon | You can't ignore reality. You won't wake up one morning and find that the Arabs of Umm al-Faham have become part of Palestine and are no longer in Israel. | 105 |
Andrea Mitchell | They put me on the shift where they thought I could do the least harm, midnight to eight in the morning. Although the hours were lousy, they were perfect for an apprentice reporter. | 105 |
James Daly | You lie awake at 3 in the morning thinking of story ideas. You're online at 8 a.m. on a Sunday or midnight on a Wednesday. It's a job that you never push aside. | 105 |
Justin Hayward | There's no secret, but inspiration has to find you working. And that's one of the key things that I've always remembered. And if I put my mind to it tonight, I think I could take a guitar, and by 2 or 3 o'clock in the morning, something will have happened - I'll have had something to hang onto. But I think that's the key. | 105 |
Joan Lunden | I had three children while doing a show, as demanding as 'Good Morning America,' so this is - you know, it's almost like I'm less daunted about motherhood, and parenting at this point in time. And I think I'm just much more fit and healthy than I was 20-years-ago. | 105 |
James Inhofe | I have to say when we talk about the treatment of these prisoners that I would guess that these prisoners wake up every morning thanking Allah that Saddam Hussein is not in charge of these prisons. | 105 |
Salvador Dali | Each morning when I awake, I experience again a supreme pleasure - that of being Salvador Dali. | 106 |
Bobby Knight | I don't have to wait until the next morning to regret something I did that was kinda dumb. | 106 |
Charles Stanley | On Sunday morning, I'm not nervous... I can't wait to tell what God wants me to say. | 106 |
Dean Martin | I'd hate to be a teetotaler. Imagine getting up in the morning and knowing that's as good as you're going to feel all day. | 106 |
Emma Thompson | This morning, I went to wipe my hands on a tea towel, and while I was using it, it seemed like it felt a bit light. I unfolded it and realized my daughter had cut little bits out of it to make frocks for her dolls! | 106 |
Fiona Apple | I had really bad obsessive-compulsive disorder. At its worst, I was compelled to leave my house at three o'clock in the morning and go out in the alley because I just knew that the paper-towel roll I threw in the recycling bin was uncomfortable, like it was lying the wrong way, and I would be down in the garbage. | 106 |
Francois Truffaut | I'd skip school regularly to see movies - even in the morning, in the small Parisian theaters that opened early. | 106 |
Gabriel Iglesias | I want to get so famous that I don't have to wake up in the morning. It'll probably never happen. | 106 |
George Edward Woodberry | Left to themselves, things tend to go from bad to worse. Murphy's First Corollary If you tell the boss you were late for work because you had a flat tire, the next morning you will have a flat tire. | 106 |
Herman Hesse | It was morning; through the high window I saw the pure, bright blue of the sky as it hovered cheerfully over the long roofs of the neighboring houses. It too seemed full of joy, as if it had special plans, and had put on its finest clothes for the occasion. | 106 |
Jeff Foxworthy | My father-in-law gets up at 5 o'clock in the morning and watches the Discovery Channel. I don't know why there's this big rush to do this. | 106 |
Lisa Vanderpump | I don't watch any television, hardly ever because I'm so busy. I always obviously watch my shows because I blog about it and talk about it, but no, I can watch the news in the morning and that's it. | 106 |
Lord Acton | If some great catastrophe is not announced every morning, we feel a certain void. Nothing in the paper today, we sigh. | 106 |
Nick Clegg | Do I get up every morning and ask: am I doing the things that I believe in and am I doing them for the best possible motives? Yes. Unambiguously yes. | 106 |
Pedro Calderon de la Barca | These flowers, which were splendid and sprightly, waking in the dawn of the morning, in the evening will be a pitiful frivolity, sleeping in the cold night's arms. | 106 |
Sarah Zettel | My joking answer to this question is that I leave a bowl of milk out on the back porch every night for the Idea Fairy. In the morning, the milk is gone and there's a brand-new shiny idea by the bowl. | 106 |
Ashley Jensen | It means I wake up to sunshine every morning, and I can afford to drink better wine at night. But I haven't completely sold out to Hollywood. | 106 |
Christine Pelosi | If have to undergo preschool safety checks every morning, why does a random thug get to own an assault rifle? | 106 |
Corbin Bernsen | There's nothing like coming home here, having the day off or morning off and going surfing. In Orlando I don't know what I would do. | 106 |
Dennis Kucinich | There's an ethical dimension to my life and all of our lives, from the time we get up in the morning to the time we sleep, including what we sleep on. So I don't separate my choices from ethical choices at any time. | 106 |
Harold H. Greene | The attorney general would call at 5 o'clock in the evening and say: 'Tomorrow morning we are going to try to integrate the University of Mississippi. Get us a memo on what we're likely to do, and what we can do if the governor sends the National Guard there.' | 106 |
Heidi Murkoff | I was the first in my peer group to get pregnant. All I craved was reassurance. I needed someone to tell me that all the seemingly random symptoms I had - weird things, such as excess saliva - were normal. And I was worried because I wasn't getting any morning sickness. | 106 |
Jay London | I recorded my hair this morning, tonight I'm watching the highlights. | 106 |
Michel Houellebecq | You know, you don't have to have permanent opinions. You can think, every morning, 'I love the world' and go to bed every night thinking, 'I hate the world.' | 106 |
Robert Duvall | I love the smell of juice boxes in the morning. | 106 |
Ron Reagan | My wife and I just prefer Seattle. It's a beautiful city. Great setting. You open your front door in the morning and the air smells like pine and the sea, as opposed to bus exhaust. | 106 |
Taylor Schilling | If it's a good day, I get 'The New York Times' on my iPad, and if I have a little time in the morning, I like to look at that while I'm eating. | 106 |
William Scranton | The first one, obviously, was walking into my office at eight o'clock in the morning on Wednesday, and being told there was a telephone call saying that there was an incident at Three Mile Island, and that it had shut down and that beyond that we didn't know. | 106 |
Alice Temperley | I get up between 6:30 and 7 A.M., and my morning routine is always the same: hot water and lemon, eggs on toast and rose oil on the face. | 106 |
Artie Lange | The regular guy still relates to him and Howard is a $500 million guy now who dates a model and drives about in a limo all day. But Howard still knows how to make a plumber laugh and those guys still have him on in the morning, because he is a real talent. | 106 |
Bryan Clay | It's not easy waking up every single morning knowing what you're going to put your body through and having to do it. We don't have days off. | 106 |
Campbell Scott | Directing is: you're overwhelmed the whole time. Your mind never stops. If you care about it. You wake up in the morning and you begin thinking about it and then you go to sleep at night and you're still thinking about it. | 106 |
Cat Cora | Chronic malnutrition, or the lack of proper nutrition over time directly contributes to three times as many child deaths as food scarcity. Yet surprisingly, you don't really hear about this hidden crisis through the morning news, Twitter or headlines of major newspapers. | 106 |
Daryl Hannah | My ideal is to wake up in the morning and run around the meadow naked. | 106 |
George Eads | Another challenge? Getting up at 6:30 in the morning to go act. It's not fun acting that early in the morning or acting at 4 A.M in the middle of the night or in the morning when you're really tired. That's a challenge. What a luxurious problem to have. | 106 |
Jane Pauley | 'Good Morning America' exploited Joan Lunden's pregnancy, but you won't see me bringing my babies on the air. The only reason I'm talking about the babies at all is that they've been with me on the show since I became pregnant. After a while, I had to acknowledge this pumpkin tummy. | 106 |
Jonas Salk | It is always with excitement that I wake up in the morning wondering what my intuition will toss up to me, like gifts from the sea. I work with it and rely on it. It's my partner. | 106 |
Louis Nizer | Yes, there's such a thing as luck in trial law but it only comes at 3 o'clock in the morning. You'll still find me in the library looking for luck at 3 o'clock in the morning. | 106 |
Patricia Reilly Giff | What inspired me to become an author? I think it was the snow in New York. I looked out the window and I said, 'Well, I have to get dressed every morning to go to teach, but if I write a book, I can stay home in my bathrobe, eat candy corn.' | 106 |
Poppy Delevingne | I never do anything that doesn't feel natural to me. I wake up in the morning and I know what to put on - it's my sixth sense, really. | 106 |
Bob Menendez | If you got up this morning and had fruits for breakfast, it was probably picked by the bent back of an immigrant worker. If you slept in a hotel or motel of the nation, you probably had your room done by an immigrant worker. | 106 |
Carrie Ann Inaba | My poor vision gives me a soft-focus morning. For the first half hour, I kind of wander through my house, and everything is a blur. I put my contacts in when I'm ready to deal with the world. | 106 |
Charlie Kimball | It takes more than driving to become an IndyCar driver. Gone are the days when drivers show up Friday morning and go home Sunday night. We're all integral to our partnerships, commercially, motorsports. We're as much champions in the boardroom as we are on the racetrack. | 106 |
Joel Madden | I'm just a really normal, sensitive kind of go-about-my business everyday kinda guy. People see the tattoos, and they either read things or they see things and they don't really know that I'm just this guy that gets up and makes coffee in the morning and hangs out with his friends and walks his dog and reads his Bible and goes about his day. | 106 |
Shenae Grimes | I go to the gym in the morning without any makeup on. Sorry, guys, if you think I'm ugly, but I don't know anybody who goes to the gym with makeup on. | 106 |
Delmore Schwartz | What was the freedom to which the adult human being rose in the morning, if each act was held back or inspired by the overpowering ghost of a little child? | 106 |
Robert Burton | What is life, when wanting love? Night without a morning; love's the cloudless summer sun, nature gay adorning. | 106 |
Byron Katie | I used to sleep on the floor next to the bed, because I believed that I didn't even deserve a bed to sleep in. And then, one morning, a cockroach crawled onto my leg. I looked at it, and suddenly I awoke from a kind of hypnotic trance in which I had been all my life. | 106 |
Jonathan Rhys Meyers | You know what I like to do on a Sunday morning? Clean my house. I really enjoy it; it's my ritual. I require tidiness, actually. I have to have everything spotless before I can relax. | 106 |
Jean Harlow | I like to wake up each morning feeling a new man. | 106 |
Jeremy Piven | We all deal with issues of time. The first thing you do in the morning is look at the clock to see what time it is. | 106 |
Jeannette Walls | I sit down at my desk pretty early in the morning and write all day until about 4 or 5 p.m. | 106 |
Jessica Ennis | Training is full-on. Some days I really don't want to get out of bed and hit that track again. Sunday and Monday morning sessions are always horrible. But who really looks forward to going to work on a Monday morning? | 106 |
Jack Henry Abbott | One morning I woke up and was plunged into psychological shock. I had forgotten I was free. | 106 |
James Whitcomb Riley | When you awaken some morning and hear that somebody or other has been discovered, you can put it down as a fact that he discovered himself years ago - since that time he has been toiling, working, and striving to make himself worthy of general discovery. | 106 |
Henry David Thoreau | An early-morning walk is a blessing for the whole day. | 107 |
Steve Jobs | For the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: 'If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?' And whenever the answer has been 'No' for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something. | 107 |
Bob Dylan | What's money? A man is a success if he gets up in the morning and goes to bed at night and in between does what he wants to do. | 107 |
Groucho Marx | One morning I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got into my pajamas I'll never know. | 107 |
Chuck Schumer | Barack Obama knows that to create an economy built to last, we need to focus on middle-class families. Families who stay up on Sunday nights pacing the floor, like my dad did, while their children, tucked in bed, dream big dreams. Families who aren't sure what Monday morning will bring, but who believe our nation's best days are still ahead. | 107 |
Dian Fossey | It is true that there comes a time when I do literally dream about McDonald's. I dream of supermarkets and drug stores, potato chips and the Sunday morning paper. | 107 |
Fred Wilson | I generally blog between 5:30 A.M. and 7 A.M. I will from time to time add something during the day, but for the most part blogging is an early morning activity for me. | 107 |
Larry King | I remind myself every morning: Nothing I say this day will teach me anything. So if I'm going to learn, I must do it by listening. | 107 |
Max Lucado | About four days a week, I do pretty good at having a morning prayer time. But even at that, it's a rambling sort of thing. What I have learned to do better is to try to keep my mind turned toward God and ear inclined toward God throughout the day, and I think I'm doing better at that, but I've got a long way to go. | 107 |
Mr. T | God is on my side, and that's all I need. I get up in the morning, I pray to God. I don't pray to the president, the governor, the mayor, no black caucus, no this and that. I pray to God, and that's the end of it. | 107 |
Paul Mooney | I love Obama because he is proof all black people don't look alike. Nobody every told me, 'Good morning, Mr. President.' We don't all look alike. | 107 |
Russell Wilson | I had a dream that my dad passed away and that Jesus came into the room and he was basically knocking on my door, saying, 'Hey, you need to find out more about me.' So that Sunday morning I ended up going to church, and that's when I got saved. | 107 |
Ryan Gosling | I sometimes forget to have breakfast in the morning, but when I actually buy a box of cereal, I will probably eat it not only for breakfast but also as a snack later on. | 107 |
Cindy Crawford | But I try to steal other moments. Sometimes I get up very early in the morning and enjoy a quiet house and cup of tea before the craziness begins. Other times, I'll take a quick walk on the beach. You can find peace in a few minutes. | 107 |
Donald Miller | Sunday morning church service is not an enormous priority; spending time with other believers is. | 107 |
Dusty Baker | I love my daughter, but she had me on couscous and fixed me pastas and made me eat oatmeal every morning and what else, turkey burgers, turkey bacon, and that kind of stuff. So she wants her dad to live a long time, and I do, too. | 107 |
Jack LaLanne | Probably millions of Americans got up this morning with a cup of coffee, a cigarette and a donut. No wonder they are sick and fouled up. | 107 |
Lester Holt | I'll co-host 'TODAY' from Los Angeles Saturday morning and then make my way up to Merced for that evening's graduation ceremony. I'm still touching up my remarks, but my challenge to the Class of 2010 will be to break through the deafening and too often negative echo chamber of the digital era and become critical and independent thinkers. | 107 |
Max Muller | I spend my happiest hours in reading Vedantic books. They are to me like the light of the morning, like the pure air of the mountains - so simple, so true, if once understood. | 107 |
Patty Duke | I think my real depressions started when I was about 16 and doing The Patty Duke Show. I would go to bed at about 10 o'clock on a Friday night and not get up again until 6:30 Monday morning. | 107 |
Wayne Brady | I didn't know that I could do a talk show. I didn't know that we could bring variety to daytime. I didn't know that people wanted to see singing, and dancing and comedy in the morning. | 107 |
William Scranton | What I had said in the morning was that this is what we know has happened, but there has been no significant off-site release. Only to find out moments later that, in fact, there had been an off-site release. I still haven't gotten over that. | 107 |
Annie Jacobsen | On the morning of January 17, 1966, a real-life dirty bomb crisis occurred over Palomares, Spain. A Strategic Air Command bomber flying with four armed hydrogen Bombs - with yields between 70 kilotons and 1.45 megatons - collided midair with a refueling tanker over the Spanish countryside. | 107 |
George Ade | It is not time for mirth and laughter, the cold, gray dawn of the morning after. | 107 |
Karl Abraham | A person who suffers from severe locomotor anxiety finds himself in an almost permanent state of mental tension. He wakes in the morning with the anxious expectation of having to go out somewhere in the course of the day. | 107 |
Risa Lavizzo-Mourey | It isn't unusual to see children climb into a car every morning to be ferried to the front door of a school that's just a few blocks away. | 107 |
April Winchell | I remember lying down for a nap one day at about 4:00 and walking up at 11:00 the next morning. | 107 |
Carey Mulligan | Sometimes it's so weird just to do an interview. This morning I was back in my parents' house, with my brother, and we went for a jog together, then had breakfast as a family. And a couple of hours later I'm wearing high heels and a dress and makeup, and talking about my job. | 107 |
Lennart Meri | Looking in the mirror to check if my tie is straight is a waste of my time. I only look in the mirror once a day, and that's in the morning when I shave. | 107 |
Mary Antin | The apex of my civic pride and personal contentment was reached on the bright September morning when I entered the public school. | 107 |
Sean Durkin | I remember being at school during morning meeting and looking around at everybody, 350 kids, saying a prayer. We're all very young and no one knows what it means, and I remember feeling strange that people were just repeating words that they didn't understand. I refused to participate. For some reason I always rejected it, but respectfully. | 107 |
John Hersey | All morning they watched for the plane which they thought would be looking for them. They cursed war in general and PTs in particular. At about ten o'clock the hulk heaved a moist sigh and turned turtle. | 107 |
D. H. Lawrence | There is only one thing that a man really wants to do, all his life; and that is, to find his way to his God, his Morning Star, salute his fellow man, and enjoy the woman who has come the long way with him. | 108 |
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. | There is no friend like an old friend who has shared our morning days, no greeting like his welcome, no homage like his praise. | 108 |
Bruce Willis | I wake up laughing. Yes, I wake up in the morning and there I am just laughing my head off. | 108 |
Chief Seattle | Day and night cannot dwell together. The Red Man has ever fled the approach of the White Man, as the morning mist flees before the morning sun. | 108 |
Ed Asner | I don't know who made the Earth. I woke up one morning, and it's here. I make the best of it. | 108 |
Florence King | Now the only thing I miss about sex is the cigarette afterward. Next to the first one in the morning, it's the best one of all. It tasted so good that even if I had been frigid I would have pretended otherwise just to be able to smoke it. | 108 |
Frances O'Grady | As long as the number one worry for people, keeping them up at nights, is whether they're going to have a job in the morning, then they are less likely to resist unfair changes, or unfair treatment, or cuts in real pay at work. | 108 |
Gustav Klimt | Sometimes I miss out the morning's painting session and instead study my Japanese books in the open. | 108 |
Helen Hunt Jackson | O sweet, delusive Noon, Which the morning climbs to find, O moment sped too soon, And morning left behind. | 108 |
Howard Cosell | Then there is a still higher type of courage - the courage to brave pain, to live with it, to never let others know of it and to still find joy in life; to wake up in the morning with an enthusiasm for the day ahead. | 108 |
Idina Menzel | I'm a mom - I'm lucky if I get to shower in the morning. Luckily, nail polish stays on my toes. I've been so bad on the upkeep, though. | 108 |
Lindsey Vonn | When my parents were getting divorced, I just said to myself, 'Go to sleep, and tomorrow you can go skiing.' I cried myself to sleep, and in the morning I was up on the mountain, and I was good. | 108 |
Mitch McConnell | We hear the stories every day now: the father who puts on a suit every morning and leaves the house so his daughter doesn't know he lost his job, the recent college grad facing up to the painful reality that the only door that's open to her after four years of study and a pile of debt is her parents'. These are the faces of the Obama economy. | 108 |
R. L. Stine | I'm obsessed with radio. It's a good start to Sunday morning. | 108 |
Robertson Davies | A truly great book should be read in youth, again in maturity and once more in old age, as a fine building should be seen by morning light, at noon and by moonlight. | 108 |
Rose Kennedy | Make sure you never, never argue at night. You just lose a good night's sleep, and you can't settle anything until morning anyway. | 108 |
Thomas Huxley | I protest that if some great Power would agree to make me always think what is true and do what is right, on condition of being turned into a sort of clock and would up every morning before I got out of bed, I should instantly close with the offer. | 108 |
Tony Benn | Age does take it out of you, and I haven't the energy I had before. Sometimes I have breakfast and sit in this chair, and I wake up and it is lunchtime. In the past, the idea of sleeping through a morning would have horrified me, but you have to accept the limitations that old age imposes on you. | 108 |
David Gest | She got the magazine on a Wednesday morning, and on Thursday announced our marriage was over. | 108 |
Drake Bell | I wake up in the morning, walk downstairs, and just bang on the piano and write about what's going on in the world around me. | 108 |
Gene Tunney | Upon awakening in the morning, I wondered if the proceedings of the night before had been a dream. It was hard to believe that I was the world's heavyweight champion. | 108 |
Kirsten Gillibrand | Like all Americans, I will never forget where I was the morning of the 9/11 attacks. | 108 |
Pat Summitt | I'd wake up in the morning and I would think, 'Where am I?' I'd have to gather myself. | 108 |
Philip Guston | I am a night painter, so when I come into the studio the next morning the delirium is over. | 108 |
Summer Sanders | I love KIND bars. My favorites are coconut and almond and the dark chocolate and sea salt because staying fueled helps keep me from getting sick or injured. Bananas have also made a great comeback in my life. My kids eat them all the time on the go, which has inspired my go-to pre-run morning meal of peanut butter and banana on toast. | 108 |
Tom Rath | Half an hour of exercise in the morning makes for better interactions all day. Then a sound night of sleep gives me energy to tackle the next day. I am a more active parent, a better spouse, and more engaged in my work when I eat, move, and sleep well. | 108 |
Trey Anastasio | My life had become a catastrophe. I had no idea how to turn it around. My band had broken up. I had almost lost my family. My whole life had devolved into a disaster. I believe that the police officer who stopped me at three a.m. that morning saved my life. | 108 |
Andrew O'Hagan | I think I am becoming obsessive-compulsive. David Beckham apparently turns all the Diet Coke cans in his fridge to face the same way every morning, and I nerdily sharpen all the pencils in my pot before sitting down to work. | 108 |
Elle Macpherson | I try to meditate every morning. It relaxes me, clears my mind, and sets my day off on the right foot before things get too manic. | 108 |
Hannah Kent | You know you're going to have a good day when your morning begins with breakfast in the same room as Carrie Tiffany, David Vann and Lionel Shriver. | 108 |
John Glenn | Quite often, while I'm getting up in the morning, I think my warranty is running out on these body parts because it's not working quite the way it used to. | 108 |
Thurston Moore | I certainly don't sit around in the morning making pancakes listening to Whitehouse or anything. | 108 |
Scott Brooks | To this day, I hate walnuts and I hate onions because on weekends when the walnuts and onions were in season, we were out there first thing in the morning and out there until the sun went down topping onions or picking walnuts. | 108 |
Jenson Button | A lot of people think Formula One isn't a sport because everyone drives a car when they go to work in the morning. But we're pulling up to six G on a corner or during breaking, which is almost like being a fighter pilot. So we have to do a lot of work on our neck muscles. | 108 |
Sydney Brenner | I lived at home and I cycled every morning to the railway station to travel by train to Johannesburg followed by a walk to the University, carrying sandwiches for my lunch and returning in the evening the same way. | 108 |
Arthur Golden | You know, the men go to tea houses with the expectation that they will have a nice quiet evening and not read about it the next morning in the newspaper. | 108 |
John Burns | You come before me this morning with clean hands and clean collars. I want you to have clean tongues, clean manners, clean morals and clean characters. | 108 |
Joel Osteen | Some people keep God in a Sunday morning box and say, 'Hey, I did my religious duty.' That's fine, but the scripture says to pray without ceasing. And I think that means all through the day you're talking to God. Even if it's in your thoughts. | 109 |
Alejandro Jodorowsky | Life is beautiful, what do you think? In the morning I say, 'Ah, I am alive still!' All my friends die already. I am alive. It is fantastic. | 109 |
Chuck D | I spread the message of hope and of unity. That's what gets me up in the morning. I can tell you what is wrong, but I can't tell you how to fix it. I'm a raptivist, not a politician. I deal in hope. | 109 |
Ed Gillespie | When you were a volunteer for the Bush-Cheney campaign, you came in the morning; you had a supervisor who gave you a list of calls to make and a time to do it in. | 109 |
Frankie Valli | I spent many a summer early morning with the radio very low, half sleeping and half listening. | 109 |
Franz Schubert | Every night when I go to bed, I hope that I may never wake again, and every morning renews my grief. | 109 |
Harriet Ann Jacobs | But to the slave mother New Year's day comes laden with peculiar sorrows. She sits on her cold cabin floor, watching the children who may all be torn from her the next morning; and often does she wish that she and they might die before the day dawns. | 109 |
John Lewis | It was not enough to come and listen to a great sermon or message every Sunday morning and be confined to those four walls and those four corners. You had to get out and do something. | 109 |
L'Wren Scott | I don't really measure success by anything other than if I am happy. That is success to me. Am I happy waking up every morning? And despite the challenges of running my own business, do I look forward to going to work? Absolutely. | 109 |
Natalie Dormer | When I wake up on a Sunday morning with a slight hangover, in the gym with no makeup on, that's who Natalie Dormer really is. The girl next door who gets a spot on her forehead occasionally. | 109 |
Nicolas Sarkozy | It's disrespectful to tell the French in the morning that you're going to reduce the debt, in the evening that you're not going to make any savings, and the next morning, after thinking about it, that you're going to spend more. | 109 |
Paul Merton | When I wake up on a Monday morning and I realise I don't have to go and work at the civil service, I really think I've won. | 109 |
Paula Deen | In order to have good fried chicken, you should wash and season the bird the morning you're preparing it for dinner. Don't wait and do it right before you start cooking. Throw it in the refrigerator, seasoned, that morning, and give it a chance to soak up all the salt and pepper and goodness. | 109 |
Russell Wilson | My dad used to wake me up at 5:30 in the morning and hit me ground balls and tell me, 'Don't be afraid to excel. Don't be afraid to be great.' | 109 |
Travis Bradberry | Exercising first thing in the morning ensures that you'll have the time for it, and it improves your self-control and energy levels all day long. | 109 |
Victoria Beckham | I wake up every morning and I feel like I'm juggling glass balls. I live in Los Angeles, my business is run out of London, and most evenings I'm cuddled up in front of Skype, in my dressing gown, speaking with my studio in London. I travel a lot, my team travel a lot, but I wouldn't have it any other way. | 109 |
Jeb Bush | We awoke one morning in September, and the world lurched on its axis. | 109 |
Michael Morpurgo | Wherever my story takes me, however dark and difficult the theme, there is always some hope and redemption, not because readers like happy endings, but because I am an optimist at heart. I know the sun will rise in the morning, that there is a light at the end of every tunnel. | 109 |
Namie Amuro | Now, on nights that I can't sleep, I play video games alone until the morning. | 109 |
Paul Westerberg | I didn't wake up one morning and not be in the Replacements. We're all that forever, and I've just grown older. I mean, I haven't lost anything. I've gained a few things. | 109 |
Rick Pitino | Tackle the difficult things first in the morning; make changes in the way you network. Treat everyone with respect and dignity. This stops you from cynicism and negativity. End your day with that same attitude you started. Renew your contract with a day well completed. | 109 |
Sean Penn | When you act in a film, you're inevitably surrounded by people you didn't choose, right down to the set painter. I like being able to pick the family I'm waking up to in the morning that's going to make this group effort to tell a story that applies to what's interesting to me at that stage in my life. | 109 |
Jensen Ackles | I love the smell of shampoo on a girl's hair. You can walk past someone and be like, 'Wow, you took a shower this morning, didn't you? Because you smell lovely.' | 109 |
Jerry Spinelli | Just because so many conforming kids wake up every morning asking, 'What is everybody else going to wear today?' doesn't mean that they don't wish it were different. Peer pressure is just that: pressure. | 109 |
Joe Scarborough | There are 435 members of Congress. There's one 'Morning Joe' show. Hopefully, we can keep hammering the argument that you can disagree with other people and have debates but remain civil. | 109 |
Jon Huntsman, Jr. | Normal people don't just wake up in the morning and say I think it'd be a good idea to run for president of the United States. | 109 |
Mark Spitz | In my day, at 12 years old, which was 38 years ago, we worked out in summer months for two and a half hours. Today someone in that age group might work out for four hours, two hours in the morning and two at night. | 109 |
Thomas Traherne | Your enjoyment of the world is never right, till every morning you awake in Heaven: see yourself in your Father's palace; and look upon the skies, the earth, and the air as celestial joys: having such a reverend esteem of all, as if you were among the angels. | 109 |
Adelbert von Chamisso | My first care the following morning was, to devise some means of discovering the man in the grey cloak. | 109 |
Christopher Columbus | Tomorrow morning before we depart, I intend to land and see what can be found in the neighborhood. | 110 |
Henry Ward Beecher | We sleep, but the loom of life never stops, and the pattern which was weaving when the sun went down is weaving when it comes up in the morning. | 110 |
Bob Iger | I get up at 4:30 in the morning, seven days a week, no matter where I am in the world. | 110 |
Bram Stoker | No man knows till he has suffered from the night how sweet and dear to his heart and eye the morning can be. | 110 |
Cary Fukunaga | No, ramen's not good for you. But in Japan, our favorite thing to do after drinking all night, especially in Sapporo where it's freezing cold, is to go to the ramen place at two, three in the morning. | 110 |
Emeril Lagasse | I can't tell you enough about cinnamon. Cinnamon is an awesome spice to use and it goes great with something like apples in the morning or in a mixture of fruit or in your oatmeal or even in your cereal. | 110 |
Kylie Jenner | I wake up every morning with the worst anxiety. I don't know why. I have, like, a problem. | 110 |
L'Wren Scott | I always have to have my lipstick. Sometimes I have more than one shade: start with one color for the morning, one for night. Sometimes I have a couple shades just in case I need something more powerful for the day. | 110 |
Liam Neeson | I do believe at the end of the night when you're with your family, the character gets hung up on the door like a coat, and is there to be taken on the next morning. | 110 |
Nick Cannon | Saturday morning, you knew what was cool by what was on 'Soul Train.' | 110 |
Nicolas Chamfort | Swallow a toad in the morning and you will encounter nothing more disgusting the rest of the day. | 110 |
R. L. Stine | A real New Yorker likes the sound of a garbage truck in the morning. | 110 |
Rickey Henderson | Somehow, I've been blessed to be able to have the young spirit inside - not feel like every year I get a year older. I feel like every year I get a year younger. I don't wake up in the morning with aches and pains. | 110 |
Rod Stewart | I see myself at 7:30 in the morning and it's not too pretty. | 110 |
Vivica A. Fox | First thing I do in the morning is give thanks to God for another day, and then turn to HLN News or ESPN to see what's going on in the world. | 110 |
Will Ferrell | When I was a kid, 'Land of the Lost' was my favorite show, just because it was - in the landscape of Saturday morning cartoons - it was so unique. It was a live-action show and kids were in it, these creatures, these Sleestaks and dinosaurs. Every week was a different adventure. I couldn't wait. I loved it so much. | 110 |
William Feather | Early morning cheerfulness can be extremely obnoxious. | 110 |
Yaya Han | I roll from my bedroom into my workroom in the morning and craft-craft-craft. | 110 |
Carolyn Murphy | I just remember Stella Tenant and me dancing in Donatella Versace's bathtub until like four in the morning. It was one of those 'pinch me' moments. | 110 |
Mickey Rooney | Always get married in the morning. That way if it doesn't work out, you haven't wasted the whole day. | 110 |
Roberto Cavalli | Fashion should be something that in the morning, when you open your window, you say, 'Oh fantastic, sun!' Then you take your shower, you say, 'OK fantastic, which colour I wear today because I feel happy?' This should be fashion. | 110 |
Sebastian Horsley | I like to remind myself that every morning I'm making a choice to live. | 110 |
Shawn Amos | When Woodstock ended on Monday morning, over 600 acres of garbage was left behind on Max Yasgur's farm. It took over 400 volunteers and $100,000 to remove it all. | 110 |
Si Robertson | I look in the mirror every morning, okay. What is going on here? You know, I just say, 'Look, it's sheer insanity.' | 110 |
Cathy Guisewite | A young bride can put on makeup at 6 in the morning and look fabulous at midnight. I have about a 15-minute window where I actually look good, and then I have to wash my face and start over. | 110 |
Steven Adler | I used to wake up in the morning and say, 'Oh, God.' Now I wake up in the morning and look forward to life. | 110 |
Malcolm Mclaren | I was taught that to create anything you had to believe in failure, simply because you had to be prepared to go through an idea without any fear. Failure, you learned, as I did in art school, to be a wonderful thing. It allowed you to get up in the morning and take the pillow off your head. | 110 |
Jermain Defoe | When you get up in the morning and know you're doing something you love, feel fit and look after yourself, it's just a great thing to do. | 110 |
Art Donovan | People tell me if I don't eat vegetables, I'm going to get scurvy. Well, what the hell. But I was never overweight as a player. There was a clause in my contract that said I had to weigh in at 270 every Friday morning. I always made it. I'd have dinner on Monday, and then I wouldn't eat until Friday. | 110 |
John Hench | In live action movies, you just hope that everything works. Because the actor may had a bad morning and doesn't play good, or accidents happen continuously. Many things contradict what you are trying to say. But in cartoons, nothing contradict what you want to say. | 110 |
Mohamed Al-Fayed | The most important thing for me is health - you wake up in the morning, you can breathe, and you can walk. | 110 |
Winston Churchill | I may be drunk, Miss, but in the morning I will be sober and you will still be ugly. | 111 |
Drake | I wake up in the morning and my heart is light, man. It's not heavy. I don't have skeletons in the closet on their way out. | 111 |
Erma Bombeck | There's nothing sadder in this world than to awake Christmas morning and not be a child. | 111 |
George W. Bush | Freedom itself was attacked this morning by a faceless coward, and freedom will be defended. | 111 |
Demetri Martin | I think that when you get dressed in the morning, sometimes you're really making a decision about your behavior for the day. Like if you put on flipflops, you're saying: 'Hope I don't get chased today.' 'Be nice to people in sneakers.' | 111 |
Drew Barrymore | I still, at hotel rooms, I do this one sort of not-so-cool thing: continually shoving my room service tray in front of someone else's door. Because I don't want the remnants. I don't want to be caught, like, being like the pig that I was at two in the morning. | 111 |
Francis Ford Coppola | I like to work in the morning. I like to sometimes go to a place where I'm all alone where I'm not going to get a phone call early that hurts my feelings, because once my feelings are hurt, I'm dead in the water. | 111 |
George Strait | I don't mind traveling that much when I can go somewhere and stay there for a while, but touring is different. You rarely see anything. You get there early in the morning and you're resting all day, and you go in and do a sound check, and you do the show, and then bam you're gone. | 111 |
Gustav Klimt | There is nothing that special to see when looking at me. I'm a painter who paints day in day out, from morning till evening - figure pictures and landscapes, more rarely portraits. | 111 |
Helen Thomas | I can remember the morning after President Nixon won re-election in 1972. His chief of staff, H.R. Haldeman, called a Cabinet meeting and told the members: 'You are all a bunch of burned-out volcanoes;' and asked for their resignations. | 111 |
Kelly Clarkson | The thing I love most about going on vacation is that I get to leave behind any kind of schedule. My entire life is scheduled from morning to night, and when I'm on vacation, there is no schedule. | 111 |
Kirsten Dunst | You know that feeling when you wake up in the morning and you're excited for the day? That's one of my main goals in life. | 111 |
Lindsay Lohan | On a day when you're tired, it's important to just say good morning to everyone so they're kind of aware that it's gonna be a good day. Jamie Lee Curtis told me that. | 111 |
Murray Walker | I'm a car fanatic and each morning I wake up with a smile on my face, whether I'm commentating on the Formula One or at Silver Hatch racetrack in Roary the Racing Car. | 111 |
Robert Orben | Every morning I get up and look through the Forbes list of the richest people in America. If I'm not there, I go to work. | 111 |
Willie Geist | I can't say for sure where I was headed the first time my mom put a blue blazer on me. Church, probably. West Side Presbyterian in Ridgewood, New Jersey, specifically, where my blazer was paired with a clip-on tie and a pair of khakis for a Sunday morning with my fellow congregants. | 111 |
Christopher Meloni | Look, I hate to sound like Pollyanna, but I literally can't wait to get to work in the morning. I've got steady jobs, I've got my health, and I'm here in the greatest city in the world. I'd be a pig not to be grateful. | 111 |
Klaus Fuchs | I was lucky because on the morning after the burning of the Reichstag I left my home very early to catch a train to Berlin for the conference of our student organization and that is the only reason why I escaped arrest. | 111 |
Tom Jones | I think it's good that I had some experience of the real world before I became successful. You know, having to get up in the morning and going to work in construction. | 111 |
Alana Stewart | I do get up in the morning and I try to spend at least half an hour meditating and reading something spiritual. I start my day with meditation and prayer, and I truly believe that all the stuff you do on the outside isn't as important as what you do on the inside. | 111 |
David Mixner | I'd come to the country to do my Thoreau bit, so I needed an office that looked out onto the woods for inspiration. I converted one of the bedrooms into my workspace and through its windows watched the wildlife appear each morning with the sunrise. Many were the days I would sit in wonder, coffee in hand, for hours. | 111 |
Eduardo Paes | I have the best job in the world. I wake up every morning energized at the thought of running Rio de Janeiro, the most exciting city on the planet. | 111 |
Lisa Gardner | When I got my very first phone call that I'd hit the 'New York Times' list, I had a small rush of 'I've made it!' But the next morning, it occurred to me I didn't know what it was, so I called my agent and asked what being a 'New York Times' bestselling author really meant. He informed me that I was now a thousand pound gorilla. | 111 |
Rachel Stevens | I am really passionate about my career and my music and I am so lucky to be able to do what I do for a job, so for all the early morning starts and long days, I could never trade it all in. | 111 |
Ricardo Semler | A high percentage of organisations develop a military rationale, whereby only a very small number of people make all of the decisions. There is little wonder, then, that people aren't keen to get out of bed and come to work on a Monday morning. | 111 |
Shilpa Shetty | I'm not an early bird at all. Ideally, on Saturday morning I'd allow myself a lovely lie-in. 10:45 would be just right. | 111 |
Chris Colfer | Oh, I have this feud going with the L.A. Unified School District, because I keep getting these phone calls saying my daughter keeps missing classes, I mean, at all hours of the night, I had like, two calls this morning and I keep calling saying I haven't got a daughter! | 111 |
Jack Dempsey | Tell him he can have my title, but I want it back in the morning. | 111 |
Jordin Sparks | When I go out clubbing I can dance 'til three o'clock in the morning with just a water bottle in my hand. I love dancing to anything with a good beat really. My favorite song to dance to at the moment is probably Drake's 'Best I Ever Had.' | 111 |
Allan McNish | The most dangerous part of the race is early evening and especially early morning. It's the twilight zone. Either you're going into darkness and the sun is dropping down, or you're coming out of the darkness and the sun is coming up. At the same time, you've got new drivers coming in and feeling their way around the circuit. | 111 |
Robert Frost | The brain is a wonderful organ; it starts working the moment you get up in the morning and does not stop until you get into the office. | 112 |
Joyce Meyer | I've been saying for a couple of years now that people need to let God out of the Sunday morning box, that He doesn't want to just be with you for an hour or two on Sunday morning and then put back in His box to sit there until you have an emergency, but He wants to invade your Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. | 112 |
Lady Gaga | When I wake up in the morning, I feel just like any other insecure 24-year-old girl. | 112 |
Charles M. Schwab | There is no royal road to a successful life, as there is no royal road to learning. It has got to be hard knocks, morning, noon, and night, and fixity of purpose. | 112 |
Christopher Nolan | We all wake up in the morning wanting to live our lives the way we know we should. But we usually don't, in small ways. That's what makes a character like Batman so fascinating. He plays out our conflicts on a much larger scale. | 112 |
Dick Cheney | I reached a point towards the end on the old heart where I had trouble getting out of a chair. All I wanted to do was get out of bed in the morning and walk to my office and sit back down in the chair. Now I throw 50 pound bags of horse feed in the back of my pickup truck and I don't even think about it. I'm back doing those things. | 112 |
Donatella Versace | The first thing I do each morning is get out of bed and give my dog, Audrey, a hug. She's a Jack Russell. I think having an animal is a wonderful thing, particularly dogs. They are great levelers, there's no nonsense with them, and they just want simple affection. | 112 |
Elizabeth Edwards | I'm actually one of those people who get up energetic in the morning. | 112 |
Emo Philips | Some mornings, it's just not worth chewing through the leather straps. | 112 |
Ina Garten | My extravagance is my garden - it's the first thing I look at every morning when I wake up. It gives me so much pleasure. | 112 |
John Updike | Each morning my characters greet me with misty faces willing, though chilled, to muster for another day's progress through the dazzling quicksand the marsh of blank paper. | 112 |
Miranda Hart | I wanted to be a farmer's wife. I thought it would be quite fun to wake up of a morning, collect eggs and have sheep and pigs as pets. I know now that it would also involve having to sleep with the farmer, but at the time I wasn't thinking about the sexual implications - I was 11. | 112 |
Naguib Mahfouz | I wake up early in the morning and walk for an hour. If I have something to write, I prefer to write in the morning until midday, and in the afternoon, I eat. | 112 |
Neil Diamond | Chelsea Morning is a great Joni Mitchell song and I guess I'm partial to her lyrics because they show me a slightly different perspective on life. | 112 |
Nina Dobrev | I know a lot of people dread going to work every morning, but my work is playing pretend and doing stunts and screaming. It's a lot of fun and I get to play dress up. Every day is exciting and different and new and cool. I couldn't be more grateful. | 112 |
Ovid | First thing every morning before you arise say out loud, 'I believe,' three times. | 112 |
Patricia Cornwell | On the last morning of Virginia's bloodiest year since the Civil War, I built a fire and sat facing a window of darkness where at sunrise I knew I would find the sea. | 112 |
The Notorious B.I.G. | How real can your music be if you wake up in the morning hearing birds and crickets? I never hear birds when I wake up. Just a lot of construction work, the smell of Chinese takeout, children screaming, and everybody knocking a different track from 'Ready to Die' as they pass down the street. | 112 |
Twyla Tharp | People often say to me, 'I don't know anything about dance.' I say, 'Stop. You got up this morning, and you're walking. You are an expert.' | 112 |
Vidal Sassoon | I'll never forget one morning I walked in and I had a hell of a bruise - it had been a difficult night the night before - and a client said to me, 'Good God, Vidal, what happened to your face?' And I said, 'Oh, nothing, madam, I just fell over a hairpin.' | 112 |
Wallace Stevens | The day of the sun is like the day of a king. It is a promenade in the morning, a sitting on the throne at noon, a pageant in the evening. | 112 |
Alexis Carrel | The most efficient way to live reasonably is every morning to make a plan of one's day and every night to examine the results obtained. | 112 |
Andrew Wiles | There's also a sense of freedom. I was so obsessed by this problem that I was thinking about if all the time - when I woke up in the morning, when I went to sleep at night, and that went on for eight years. | 112 |
Lawrence Summers | It says something about this new global economy that USA Today now reports every morning on the day's events in Asian markets. | 112 |
Lynn Johnston | Mom and Dad would stay in bed on Sunday morning, but the kids would have to go to church. | 112 |
Jennifer Granholm | We went to a small lake, Bass Lake. It was beautiful. It was perfectly still when we got there in the morning. The fog was lifting off the water. It was just magical. And we did catch some fish, 13 fish. | 112 |
Amber Riley | I love Adele, I want her to be my best friend. She could come to the U.S., live with me and sing to me every morning. | 112 |
Christopher Columbus | Stood off and on during the night, determining not to come to anchor till morning, fearing to meet with shoals; continued our course in the morning; and as the island was found to be six or seven leagues distant, and the tide was against us, it was noon when we arrived there. | 113 |
Aleister Crowley | I slept with faith and found a corpse in my arms on awakening; I drank and danced all night with doubt and found her a virgin in the morning. | 113 |
Bob Newhart | I remember seeing a movie with Jose Ferrer and Rosemary Clooney where they were husband and wife, and they got in bed, and he had on polka-dot pajamas and she had on striped pajamas, and when they got up the next morning he had on the striped pajamas and she had the polka dot pajamas, and that was considered racy at that time! | 113 |
Elizabeth Wurtzel | Sometimes I wish that there were a way to let people know that just because I live in a world without rules, and in a life that is lawless, doesn't mean that it doesn't hurt so bad the morning after. | 113 |
Henny Youngman | If you're going to do something tonight that you'll be sorry for tomorrow morning, sleep late. | 113 |
Jean-Claude Van Damme | You know, I looked at my face in the mirror this morning, and I like being old. My face has more content and when I train in the gym now, I am not training to be strong or handsome - just better than I was yesterday. These days the race is just against myself. | 113 |
Katie Couric | I could announce one morning that the world was going to blow up in three hours and people would be calling in about my hair! | 113 |
Kelly Osbourne | I never thought in a million years I'd be that healthy girl who wakes up every morning to exercise. After being called 'cherubic and chubby,' I'm rocking a bikini! | 113 |
Lincoln Steffens | One improvement I have learned from my childhood experience with my father: I do not threaten punishment in the morning. That was awful. Late into the night I would lie awake tossing and wondering what he was going to do to me. Usually he did nothing. A quiet, impressive 'talking to' was all I got. | 113 |
Marlo Thomas | Never face facts; if you do you'll never get up in the morning. | 113 |
Paul Merton | Maybe there's a perception of me as grumpy old bugger who suffers from depression. It's a total misconception. I don't think of myself as any grumpier than the next person. I'm not even grumpy first thing in the morning. | 113 |
Paul Newman | You can't be as old as I am without waking up with a surprised look on your face every morning: 'Holy Christ, whaddya know - I'm still around!' It's absolutely amazing that I survived all the booze and smoking and the cars and the career. | 113 |
Robert M. Pirsig | If you stare at a wall from four in the morning till nine at night, and you do that for a week, you are getting pretty close to nothingness. | 113 |
Ryan Lochte | My philosophy is if you're a man at night, you gotta be a man in the morning. | 113 |
Stanley Hauerwas | I was raised in an evangelical Methodist church. Evangelical meant that though you had been baptized and made a member of the church on Sunday morning, you still had to be 'saved' on Sunday night. I wanted to be saved, but I did not think you should fake it. | 113 |
Stella McCartney | I literally have meetings at eight o'clock in the morning, and I finish at nine o'clock at night. It sounds pathetic, but I don't even have time to go shopping. | 113 |
William Allen White | I have never been bored an hour in my life. I get up every morning wondering what new strange glamorous thing is going to happen and it happens at fairly regular intervals. | 113 |
Liam Payne | On our American tour bus, the bunks are a bit taller so that we don't bash our heads. On the English bus, we bash our heads every morning. It's not the best thing to do first thing when you wake up. | 113 |
Mahendra Singh Dhoni | Getting up quite late in the morning, going and trying to clean my bikes - I have quite a few of them in Ranchi - spending some time with my family, my parents and friends. Going out for rides with my friends and having lunch or dinner at a roadside hotel - that's my favourite time-pass. These are the sort of things that really excite me. | 113 |
Pearl Bailey | I never really look for anything. What God throws my way comes. I wake up in the morning and whichever way God turns my feet, I go. | 113 |
Priscilla Presley | He would use amphetamines to stay awake because he would have late night maneuvers that would go way into the early morning hours and he was given pills to stay up for the long hours. | 113 |
Rainn Wilson | My brain is so anxiety-prone, like a pinball machine. If I don't get up in the morning and focus my thinking, my breathing, and my being for about 12 minutes, I'm just a screwball all day long. | 113 |
Sonam Kapoor | I only discovered the 'Harry Potter' series in my tenth standard. I dived right into it, often reading non-stop through the day and night. It was the morning after one such readathon when I was to appear for a Chemistry exam. Spending my night with the third edition of Harry Potter didn't help much, and I fared poorly. | 113 |
A. N. Wilson | If you read about Mussolini or Stalin or some of these other great monsters of history, they were at it all the time, that they were getting up in the morning very early. They were physically very active. They didn't eat lunch. | 113 |
Andrew Bird | Every time I get up in the morning, melodies occur to me and I start trying to shape lyrics to melodies. | 113 |
Dan Buettner | You have to know why you get up every morning. | 113 |
Samantha Morton | The thing with me is, if I wake up one morning and I'm not happy working as an actress, I'll stop. It's not something I have to do. It's not a vocation. | 113 |
Colin Powell | It ain't as bad as you think. It will look better in the morning. | 114 |
H. Jackson Brown, Jr. | Remember that creating a successful marriage is like farming: you have to start over again every morning. | 114 |
Ray Bradbury | Love. Fall in love and stay in love. Write only what you love, and love what you write. The key word is love. You have to get up in the morning and write something you love, something to live for. | 114 |
Rodney Dangerfield | This morning when I put on my underwear I could hear the fruit-of-the-loom guys laughing at me. | 114 |
Ann Voskamp | My husband is Dutch, and his family, when you sat down to eat food at the table, you never left the table until you ate living bread and drank living water. They never left the table until they'd read Scripture together. So morning, lunch, suppertime, Scripture was always read at the table, and then there was prayer to close. | 114 |
Bobby Knight | All the years I coached, we sent a card to every professor for each kid I had, and I was able to keep track on a daily basis who cut class or who was dropping a grade average. What I did was bring that kid in at 5:00 in the morning, and he would run the stairs from the bottom to the top until I told him to quit. | 114 |
David Hockney | I'm a very early riser, and I don't like to miss that beautiful early morning light. | 114 |
Elliott Erwitt | When I get up in the morning I brush my teeth and go about my business, and if I am going anywhere interesting I take my camera along. | 114 |
Harvey Pekar | I wake up every morning in a cold sweat, regardless of how well things went the day before. And put that I said that in a somewhat but not completely tongue-in-cheek way. | 114 |
Jo Brand | Having children is fab. They keep me young and make me get up in the morning. | 114 |
Madeleine Albright | Most of the time I spend when I get up in the morning is trying to figure out what is going to happen. | 114 |
Sam Kinison | You don't know what a rough crowd is. If all I have to do is go make people laugh, that's nothing. Let me tell you what a tough crowd is. A tough crowd is going to a morning service and you got six people there and you gotta pat your house payment. That's a tough crowd. | 114 |
Vijay Mallya | I'm not a T.G.I.F. guy. I get off a plane at 2 o'clock in the morning and I'm looking for my secretary because I want to know what's going on. | 114 |
Beau Willimon | The press don't wake up in the morning simply to be a mouthpiece for pols - they're out to uncover and expose news. That often is at odds with what politicians are setting out to do - it's both symbiotic and antagonistic. They need each other, they work in concert with one another, they work against one another. | 114 |
Giuliana Rancic | I eat as much as the next girl, but I work my butt of in the gym every morning! The key is moderation. I splurge on the weekend. A big bowl of pasta and a delicious slice of cake for dessert are my favorites. | 114 |
Jenny McCarthy | Hope is the greatest thing for moms of autism. Hope is what gets us out of bed in the morning. I'm on a mission to tell parents that there is a way. | 114 |
Sam Taylor-Wood | I feel the art world in New York has a stronger following than Britain. If you go to a New York art district on a Saturday morning, it will be so busy with families and openings - art is much more ingrained in the culture. | 114 |
Judy Blume | I loved to read, and I think any child who loves to read will read anything, including the back of the cereal box, which I did every morning. | 114 |
Louis Sachar | I jog in the morning and then write for about two hours. There are times when I'm really excited and can't wait to get back to it. But there are days when I don't know what's coming next, and I really have to force it. | 114 |
John Barrymore | I would like to find a stew that will give me heartburn immediately, instead of at three o clock in the morning. | 114 |
Richard Burton | I've done the most awful rubbish in order to have somewhere to go in the morning. | 114 |
Jean Kerr | The average, healthy, well-adjusted adult gets up at seven-thirty in the morning feeling just plain terrible. | 114 |
Clayton Christensen | I love my life as a missionary, keeping myself on the front lines. The image in my mind is that God, my general, stands at the door when I go out every morning; and, knowing what the war is like, day after day he gives me his most powerful weapon: his Spirit. For this I am grateful. | 115 |
Dan Brown | I still get up every morning at 4 A.M. I write seven days a week, including Christmas. And I still face a blank page every morning, and my characters don't really care how many books I've sold. | 115 |
Don Rickles | I stopped smoking. But my personality I still have. I get up in the morning, and not everybody loves me, so if you want to call that a bad habit, there's that. | 115 |
Haruki Murakami | Most people dream a dream when they are asleep. But to be a writer, you have to dream while you are awake, intentionally. So I get up early in the morning, 4 o'clock, and I sit at my desk and what I do is just dream. After three or four hours, that's enough. In the afternoon, I run. The next day, the dream will continue. | 115 |
Helen Hayes | When traveling with someone, take large does of patience and tolerance with your morning coffee. | 115 |
Joseph B. Wirthlin | We are ever on the threshold of new journeys and new discoveries. Can you imagine the excitement of the Wright brothers on the morning of that first flight? The anticipation of Jonas Salk as he analyzed the data that demonstrated a way to prevent polio? | 115 |
Kristin Armstrong | I love the big fresh starts, the clean slates like birthdays and new years, but I also really like the idea that we can get up every morning and start over. | 115 |
Natalie Wood | I was so young, and making movies, going to the studio every morning at dawn was magic. | 115 |
Niklas Zennstrom | If you want to be an entrepreneur, it's not a job, it's a lifestyle. It defines you. Forget about vacations, about going home at 6 pm - last thing at night you'll send emails, first thing in the morning you'll read emails, and you'll wake up in the middle of the night. But it's hugely rewarding as you're fulfilling something for yourself. | 115 |
Paul Merton | In a psychiatric hospital, a lot of people believe that people on TV are talking to them directly through the screen. I'm with about 500 of these people, and I'm on TV every Friday night. As I was queuing up for breakfast one morning, one guy nearly jumped out of his skin. My first thought was to go 'Woooo!' | 115 |
Paul Ryan | And if small businesspeople say they made it on their own, all they are saying is that nobody else worked seven days a week in their place. Nobody showed up in their place to open the door at five in the morning. Nobody did their thinking, and worrying, and sweating for them. | 115 |
Sugar Ray Leonard | At 14, I was the most disciplined guy around. I would get up at 5 o'clock in the morning and run five miles, and then go to school. Sometimes I would run behind the school bus, and the kids thought I was just crazy. I knew what I wanted. | 115 |
A. E. Housman | Experience has taught me, when I am shaving of a morning, to keep watch over my thoughts, because, if a line of poetry strays into my memory, my skin bristles so that the razor ceases to act. | 115 |
David Schwimmer | London is completely unpredictable when it comes to weather. You'll start a scene, and it's a beautiful morning. You get there at 6 in the morning, set up, you start the scene, start shooting. Three hours later, it is pitch black and rainy. | 115 |
Joss Whedon | You know, I always was an early morning or late night writer. Early morning was my favorite; late night was because you had a deadline. And at four in the morning you make up some of your most absurd jokes. | 115 |
Lucy Hale | I was lucky enough to grow up in a home where I woke up Christmas morning and had toys. I know that's not the case with all people and I don't think kids should go without experiencing that sort of joy. | 115 |
Matisyahu | I enjoyed coming home to Crown Heights. There was a certain order to life there. You know, Shabbos, spending time with your family, eating and being in 'shul.' Prayers at nighttime, prayers in the morning. Everyone knows everybody; you walk your kids everywhere. | 115 |
Ryan Sheckler | I just motor through school in the morning and then go skating. | 115 |
Jon Scieszka | I remember telling my second-graders the basic 'Metamorphosis' story, saying, like, 'What about - what if a guy woke up one morning and he was a bug? Wouldn't that be weird?' And they loved that. And I think that was the trigger that made me think, like, 'Oh man, here's my audience. They're just a lot shorter than I ever thought they might be.' | 115 |
Eleanor Roosevelt | Probably the happiest period in life most frequently is in middle age, when the eager passions of youth are cooled, and the infirmities of age not yet begun; as we see that the shadows, which are at morning and evening so large, almost entirely disappear at midday. | 116 |
Dale Earnhardt | I woke up this morning, and I still don't believe I won the Daytona 500. | 116 |
Dan Brown | I write seven days a week, starting at 4 o'clock in the morning, including Christmas. | 116 |
Honore de Balzac | A good husband is never the first to go to sleep at night or the last to awake in the morning. | 116 |
Kourtney Kardashian | I was surprised that everyone calls it 'morning sickness,' because it lasted all day. For me, it was even worse at night. During my first two pregnancies, I felt so nauseous all day that I could only eat plain toast and bland foods - no proteins. | 116 |
Mary Oliver | It's very important to write things down instantly, or you can lose the way you were thinking out a line. I have a rule that if I wake up at 3 in the morning and think of something, I write it down. I can't wait until morning - it'll be gone. | 116 |
Paula Deen | I am so blessed. I've been way over-blessed. At 64 years old, I look forward to going to bed every night so I can wake up in the morning and see what blessing is going to come my way that day. Because you never, ever know what God's got in store for you. | 116 |
Samuel Goldwyn | I had a monumental idea this morning, but I didn't like it. | 116 |
Tracy Chapman | I often write either really early in the morning, or really late at night. | 116 |
Wendell Phillips | We live under a government of men and morning newspapers. | 116 |
Bipasha Basu | I'm active even on bad days; it's tough to pin me down. People ask me if I'm a morning or night person. I'm an all-the-time person. I like drinking coffee, but I do it with lots of milk because my energy levels are high even without caffeine. You could call me Obelix, except I don't have a belly. | 116 |
Sophie Ellis-Bextor | Yeah, I'm not really a morning person. | 116 |
Taylor Lautner | There's some things you just have to live with. Like twelve cars camping outside your house, and when you wake up in the morning, they're going to follow you wherever you go. It helps that I live in Valencia. It eliminates some. But they're still here. | 116 |
Cherie Lunghi | To keep my back from getting stiff, I have a strict regime every morning of stretching and do yoga once a week and Pilates. 'Strictly Come Dancing' in 2008 was great for my fitness. | 116 |
Toni Braxton | I can't record in the morning because I sound like Barry White. | 116 |
Jennifer Love Hewitt | I'm not a person who naturally loves to wake up in the morning and go 'Yeah, I'm going to work out for five hours - wooh!' Like, that's not my thing. I'm from Texas. I like to eat carbs. I like to chill out with my friends and do anything but 150 push-ups and sit-ups. | 116 |
Josh Turner | I remember those days right after I graduated from college. All I had to do was wake up in the morning and think about writing songs. It's not like that anymore, needless to say. | 116 |
Nas | I just enjoy life now. I just enjoy every morning I get to wake up. | 117 |
Bryce Harper | My dad, he worked rebar, an ironworker. Watching my pops get up every single morning, going into work, working hard - I think that really made me want to work that hard, wanted to make me get up early and go for a run or get a lift in or get some extra hitting in and really try to better myself every day. | 117 |
Emo Philips | When I wake up in the morning, I just can't get started until I've had that first, piping hot pot of coffee. Oh, I've tried other enemas. | 117 |
Kristin Scott Thomas | I try to make films that I find exciting. It makes me want to get out of bed at five in the morning, have my make-up done and play for the rest of the day. | 117 |
Lewis Black | Basically I wake up in the morning and I think everything's going to be great. I'm really kind of optimistic, and I look forward to a new day. I pick up 'The New York Times,' and I look at the front page and realize that once again I'm wrong. I start to fixate on stuff. | 117 |
Lewis Thomas | The great secret of doctors, known only to their wives, but still hidden from the public, is that most things get better by themselves; most things, in fact, are better in the morning. | 117 |
Luke Evans | I've had some pretty awful jobs that I don't miss, like working on a nightclub door, or compiling VIP lists at 3 A.M. in the morning, but sometimes it's just got to be done. | 117 |
Paula Deen | I wake up every morning happy for where I am in life. It's not all about the cooking, but the fact that I can contribute by using my influence to help people all over the country. In the last two years, my partners and I have fed more than 10 million hungry people by bringing meat to food banks. | 117 |
Tony Benn | Someone comes every morning at nine o'clock to see if I am still alive. I do get lonely, yes, but I have the children who come and see me. I see all my children every week, and there are the grandchildren, too. | 117 |
Van Morrison | A famous person to themselves, they don't get up in the morning and think, I'm famous. I'm not famous to me. Famous is a perception. | 117 |
William Gibson | I'm interested in how people all over the world array themselves and go forth in the morning to do whatever they have to do to make a living. | 117 |
Anne Graham Lotz | I want to take my focus off myself and focus on God. It's like setting your spiritual compass so no matter which way you turn during the day, whatever comes up, then my thoughts go back to Him and whatever He said that morning. | 117 |
Brian Bosworth | If you can miss getting up in the morning and running into a wall, I miss playing football. I'll never be a frustrated athlete. | 117 |
Cyril Connolly | No city should be too large for a man to walk out of in a morning. | 117 |
Joan Collins | I've become totally hooked on Cellex-C. It's an anti-ageing serum and is fantastic. I use it morning and evening and even on my hands, where it has faded those dark spots. | 117 |
Josh McDowell | On that Sunday morning the first thing that impressed the people who approached the tomb was the unusual position of the one and a half to two ton stone that had been lodged in front of the doorway. | 117 |
Rory McIlroy | If I'm playing in the morning, I'll get some carbs early: porridge with chopped banana. If I'm playing in the afternoon, I'll start with less carbs and have some eggs and fruit for breakfast, then a light lunch about 90 minutes before I play, so I don't feel sluggish or full. | 117 |
Sloane Crosley | My personality, when tasked with creating meals, goes something like this: Is there a way we can make this more difficult? Because let's do that. I don't mean to complicate things. It's just - why buy pre-packaged potato salad when you can spend your morning boiling potatoes and flipping out because there's no dill in the house? | 117 |
Joe Slovo | When a man has been consistently battering his wife, he shouldn't expect a bouquet of roses from her the morning after he promises to stop. | 117 |
Nas | I think if I heard someone else talking about their life, describing all the problems I've had, they'd look like they were through. Done. But there's something about me - I'm smiling. Those things are really not bad enough to put me in a slump. I'm smiling with the opportunity to wake up every morning. | 118 |
Andre Agassi | First of all, let me say, 1:15 in the morning, for 20,000 people to still be here, I wasn't the winner, tennis was. That's awesome. I don't know if I've ever felt so good here before. | 118 |
Gwyneth Paltrow | I love being. There's so much wisdom in it. You wake up in the morning and you think, Hey, isn't it great just being? | 118 |
Iain Duncan Smith | It's fairness to say those who work hard, get up in the morning, cut their cloth - in other words 'we can only afford to have one or two children because we don't earn enough'. They pay their taxes and they want to know that the same kind of decision-making is taking place for those on benefits. | 118 |
Jennifer Aniston | What inspires you, what excites you when you wake up in the morning? | 118 |
Liza Minnelli | Never stop moving, or you'll stop moving. I go to dance class every morning, and it's just good to stay strong; I like being healthy. | 118 |
Norah Jones | I became a musician so I wouldn't have to get up at 6 in the morning. | 118 |
Richard Simmons | Every morning when I get up, I ask God what he wants me to do, ask him to lead me to the right people to help them. | 118 |
Russell Crowe | My days, if they start in the morning with a cuddle from my son, are just so much more glorious than they were prior to that. | 118 |
Tallulah Bankhead | The less I behave like Whistler's mother the night before, the more I look like her the morning after. | 118 |
Gilbert Parker | Man is born in a day, and he dies in a day, and the thing is easily over; but to have a sick heart for three-fourths of one's lifetime is simply to have death renewed every morning; and life at that price is not worth living. | 118 |
Jerry Saltz | 'The Panorama' is also the last place anywhere in New York where the World Trade Center still stands, whole, as it stood in the early morning of September 11. I can also see the corner where I saw the first tower fall and howled out loud. Seeing the buildings again here is uplifting, healing. | 118 |
Joss Whedon | I always was an early-morning or late-night writer. Early morning was my favorite; late night was because you had a deadline. And at four in the morning, you make up some of your most absurd jokes. | 118 |
Summer Sanders | I am addicted to cereal. I am one of those people who just loves their cereal morning, noon and night. Kellogg's message is what I tell my kids every single day, which is: You've gotta start off your day right with a good, healthy breakfast to give yourself the potential for greatness. | 118 |
John Grisham | Every morning I wake at 6am or 6.30am, champing at the bit. | 118 |
Jeff Greenfield | So you wake up this morning and find you're president of the United States. Pretty cool, no? Helicopters and a 747 at your disposal; courtside seats at any NBA playoff game of your choice; everyone stands up and the band plays when you come into the room. | 118 |
Mitch Hedberg | I recently took up ice sculpting. Last night I made an ice cube. This morning I made 12, I was prolific. | 119 |
Jonathan Swift | I never knew a man come to greatness or eminence who lay abed late in the morning. | 119 |
Anne Morrow Lindbergh | Arranging a bowl of flowers in the morning can give a sense of quiet in a crowded day - like writing a poem or saying a prayer. | 119 |
Carroll Shelby | Every morning I wake up with new ideas. | 119 |
Kate Winslet | I love the routine. I love getting up in the morning and getting breakfast and packing lunches and doing the school run. Those things are really important to me. Because I think that those small but key moments are crucial for a kid. | 119 |
Kevin Plank | I wake up in the morning and I think about one brand. I don't have enough time to wake up twice and think about two. | 119 |
Kiefer Sutherland | I am a bit obsessive about tidiness. I need to make my bed in the morning and leave it perfectly made up. | 119 |
Newt Gingrich | One morning, just like 9/11, there's going to be a disaster. I have yet to see the United Nations do anything effective with either Iran or North Korea. | 119 |
Taylor Momsen | I kind of woke up one morning and was like, 'Oh I see what's happening, I get everything'. I woke up and was like, 'I get it, I'm a product.' | 119 |
Deborah Moggach | I have four Rhode Island Red hens. I get two eggs from them a day. They're feathered dustbins that eat leftover food and weeds, and they're easy to look after - I throw some grain at them in the morning, take the eggs and that's it. I love the sound of clucking. | 119 |
Summer Sanders | My healthiest habit is eating a healthy breakfast every morning. I never miss breakfast. As a busy mom, there will be days when I'm cruisin' along and I'll look at the clock and I haven't eaten lunch. And I'll run downstairs, and I'll start shovelin' stuff down the pie hole, and I'll think, 'That was no lunch at all.' | 119 |
Jo Nesbo | Those golden minutes before you are completely awake, when your mind is just drifting, you have no censorship; you are ready to develop any kind of idea. That's when I come up with the best and worst ideas. That is the privilege of being a writer - that you can stay in bed for an hour in the morning and it's work time. | 119 |
Charles Dickens | Nature gives to every time and season some beauties of its own; and from morning to night, as from the cradle to the grave, it is but a succession of changes so gentle and easy that we can scarcely mark their progress. | 120 |
Garrison Keillor | I write for a radio show that, no matter what, will go on the air Saturday at five o'clock central time. You learn to write toward that deadline, to let the adrenaline pick you up on Friday morning and carry you through, to cook up a monologue about Lake Wobegon and get to the theater on time. | 120 |
Golda Meir | Above all, this country is our own. Nobody has to get up in the morning and worry what his neighbors think of him. Being a Jew is no problem here. | 120 |
Jim Carrey | That's the trouble with being me. At this point, nobody gives a damn what my problem is. I could literally have a tumor on the side of my head and they'd be like, 'Yeah, big deal. I'd eat a tumor every morning for the kinda money you're pulling down.' | 120 |
LL Cool J | If you do cardio one day and the next day you can do weights, do it that way. If you need to do it at night or in the morning, do it that way. Whatever you need to get it done, just get it done. | 120 |
Naguib Mahfouz | I was a government employee in the morning and a writer in the evening. | 120 |
Charles Dudley Warner | The boy who expects every morning to open into a new world finds that today is like yesterday, but he believes tomorrow will be different. | 120 |
Sebastian Coe | I think I'm probably just an old-fashioned Tory. I don't wake up each morning trying to figure out what kind of Conservative I am; for me it's quite instinctive. | 120 |
Jennie Finch | There is nothing better than to make it to the College World Series. All of the extra reps in the weight room, all of the early morning practices, and all the hard work spent the entire year makes it worth it. | 121 |
Elon Musk | People work better when they know what the goal is and why. It is important that people look forward to coming to work in the morning and enjoy working. | 121 |
Al Sharpton | I always beat the sun up in the morning. It's the secret to why I'm double trouble. | 121 |
Benjamin Netanyahu | There is a fundamental situation in which the country has reached rock bottom, that a mother can't send her children out of the house in the morning. The country has reached rock bottom and this needs to be changed. | 121 |
Chris Pine | For me growing up, Christmas time was always the most fantastic, exciting time of year, and you'd stay up until three in the morning. You'd hear the parents wrapping in the other room but you knew that also, maybe, they were in collusion with Santa Claus. | 121 |
Henry Cavill | A large amount of constant activity will get things going. For example, training in the morning will have everything, all the juices flowing by the time you actually get to work. So, when you're at work, you've been already up for an hour or so or two hours, and you're raring to go where everyone else is still wiping sleep out of their eyes. | 121 |
Marilyn vos Savant | A good idea will keep you awake during the morning, but a great idea will keep you awake during the night. | 121 |
Oscar Niemeyer | Sometimes I lose a whole morning waiting on journalists and other people who look for me. But I always find some time for reading, talking to my friends and feeling what is happening in this world. | 121 |
Robert Downey, Jr. | If I could eat whatever I wanted every day, I would have Domino's pizza with pasta carbonara inside every slice. And at night, I would have Neapolitan ice cream until I felt absolutely toxic. And then I would drift off telling myself, 'It's going to be O.K... It's going to be O.K. you're going to train in the morning.' | 121 |
Christie Brinkley | My smile has been my ticket to the world. Smiling releases the same feel-good hormones you get jogging. Caring for your lips and gums is important. I brush my teeth morning and night, alternating toothpaste brands. In addition to flossing, I use a Water Pik to massage my gums and remove food particles. | 121 |
Jason Bateman | I really empathise with some of my peers who had success in the early years; then it dries up, and so there's no reason to get up in the morning. | 121 |
Mariska Hargitay | You know how you wake up in the morning and sometimes you look gorgeous and other times you look like you got hit by a mack truck? I realized that my mack truck is food. If I have no sugar, yeast or wine, I have no undereye bags and my skin is perfect. | 121 |
Tom Rath | I've seen the same thing emerge in the research around the interaction of sleeping and moving and eating: if you get a good night's sleep, you are significantly more likely to make the right choices about what you eat the next morning, you're more likely to work out, you're more likely to get a better night's sleep the next night. | 121 |
Lyndon B. Johnson | If one morning I walked on top of the water across the Potomac River, the headline that afternoon would read: 'President Can't Swim.' | 122 |
John Steinbeck | It is a common experience that a problem difficult at night is resolved in the morning after the committee of sleep has worked on it. | 122 |
Alan Shepard | Later, in the early teens, I used to ride my bike every Saturday morning to the nearest airport, ten miles away, push airplanes in and out of the hangars, and clean up the hangars. | 122 |
Amy Grant | Since I travel so much, it's always great to be home. There's nothing like getting to raid my own refrigerator at two in the morning. | 122 |
Anne Sullivan | My heart is singing for joy this morning! A miracle has happened! The light of understanding has shone upon my little pupil's mind, and behold, all things are changed! | 122 |
Brendon Urie | I have a room dedicated to music and recording. I go there first thing in the morning and just before I go to bed. And it has a window to my street, so I can watch all the crazies walking by. | 122 |
Dick Gregory | When I first broke through, there was only NBC, CBS and ABC, and they had news in the morning and in the evening - there wasn't no 24-hour news. | 122 |
Paul Ryan | Mom was 50 when my Dad died. She got on a bus every weekday for years, and rode 40 miles each morning to Madison. She earned a new degree and learned new skills to start her small business. It wasn't just a new livelihood. It was a new life. | 122 |
Stella Young | It became very clear to me that Yooralla was not as interested in media coverage that explored issues faced by people with disability as it was in giving a pat on the back to journalists who maintained the status quo by giving readers the warm and fuzzies over their morning paper. | 122 |
Antonio Banderas | Sometimes I have wrinkles, in the morning. It depends on what kind of night that I had. I accept myself and the way that I am growing older. I have eye bags and some people have proposed to me to take them out but I said no. | 122 |
Roberto Cavalli | I know I have to be like people expect, because people love to dream with me, they like to think that I love my boat of 50 metres, that I drink Cristal for breakfast, that I dance until five o'clock in the morning. I am not like that. | 122 |
Emily Dickinson | Morning without you is a dwindled dawn. | 123 |
Gabriel Garcia Marquez | The problem with marriage is that it ends every night after making love, and it must be rebuilt every morning before breakfast. | 123 |
George Osborne | I had the closest thing I have ever had to an out-of-body experience lying in bed one morning. I turned on the 'Today' programme and item four on the news was: 'The shadow chancellor has ruled himself out of the leadership.' I lay there thinking that's interesting, then I realised it was me. | 123 |
Heston Blumenthal | I still love doing what I do, and I'm really lucky to get up in the morning and want to go to work. | 123 |
Mick Jagger | You wake up in the morning and you look at your old spoon, and you say to yourself, 'Mick, it's time to get yourself a new spoon.' And you do. | 123 |
Sonia Sotomayor | I am a New Yorker, and 7:00 A.M. is a civilized hour to finish the day, not to start it. | 123 |
Antonio Banderas | I drink a bucket of white tea in the morning. I read about this tea of the Emperor of China, which is supposedly the tea of eternal youth. It's called Silver Needle. It's unbelievably expensive, but I get it on the Web. | 123 |
Carlos Fuentes | I am a morning writer; I am writing at eight-thirty in longhand and I keep at it until twelve-thirty, when I go for a swim. Then I come back, have lunch, and read in the afternoon until I take my walk for the next day's writing. | 123 |
Corey Feldman | Whereas I used to get depressed or neurotic or dwell on things, I see my son's bright eyes and smile in the morning, and suddenly, I don't feel like I'm depressed anymore. There's nothing to be depressed about when you've got that. | 123 |
Lou Holtz | If you're bored with life - you don't get up every morning with a burning desire to do things - you don't have enough goals. | 124 |
Barbara Kruger | I'd always been a news junkie, always read lots of newspapers and watched the Sunday morning news shows on TV and felt strongly about issues of power, control, sexuality and race. | 124 |
Ginnifer Goodwin | Couldn't start the morning without caffeine. | 124 |
Hugh Laurie | I don't have a single complete show or movie or anything else that I could look at and say, 'Nailed that one.' But endless dissatisfaction is, I suppose, what gets us out of bed in the morning. | 124 |
Michael Moore | Oprah's got good politics, she's got a good heart, and she'll have us all up Jazzercising at six in the morning. This cannot be a bad thing, and reading a book while we're Jazzercising. So America would be better off if Oprah were president. | 124 |
Rachael Ray | I started running 3 miles every morning after throat surgery to remove a cyst last year. The gym used to be my adversary. But that has all changed. Now, I look forward to it every morning. | 124 |
Rafael Nadal | I was passionate about soccer. I still am. Odd, though - playing soccer always made me much more anxious than playing tennis. On soccer days, I'd be out of bed by 6 in the morning, all nervous. But I was always calm when it was time for a tennis match. I still don't know why. | 124 |
Valentino Rossi | I have a lot of energy after 2 A.M. I like to sleep in the morning. I have some problems at the start of the day. | 124 |
Apolo Ohno | Being a competitor, you always believe you can come back. I'll be up at 3 in the morning watching World Cup races in my hotel whether I'm in Asia on a business trip or in New York City and have to get up in 2 hours. | 124 |
Blake Mycoskie | Almost every morning I write in my journal. I've been keeping it for a long time - I've filled more than 50 books. I write about what's going on in my personal and spiritual life or what's going on at work. It helps me keep things in perspective, especially when things get crazy or I get stressed or we have obstacles. | 124 |
J. G. Ballard | I was in Shanghai when the Japanese invaded China. I was there in Shanghai when, the morning after Pearl Harbor, they seized Shanghai. | 124 |
Anais Nin | A leaf fluttered in through the window this morning, as if supported by the rays of the sun, a bird settled on the fire escape, joy in the task of coffee, joy accompanied me as I walked. | 125 |
Paulo Coelho | I tweet in the morning and the evening. To write 12 hours a day, there is a moment when you're really tired. It's my relaxing time. | 125 |
Barbara Ehrenreich | I routinely oscillate between exultation and despair. Maybe at the end of the day I feel pretty good about what I've written, but the next morning I see that it's crap. Then I start again - make a new outline, do some more research, try to rethink the whole question. | 125 |
Bo Jackson | I was the type of guy that used to get up in the morning and go out and just out run everybody on the field without stretching or warming up or anything. | 125 |
Carrie Underwood | Every Wednesday, my husband and I have a study group with our friends. I attend church. We try to devote time in the morning, say a prayer. | 125 |
Drew Carey | I always run in the morning on an empty stomach, and I'll go through a bottle and a half of water. Then I have a protein drink or I eat egg whites. | 125 |
George Foreman | I get up in the morning looking for an adventure. | 125 |
Mario Andretti | Every NASCAR driver watches Formula One in the morning; they are well informed. | 125 |
Theophilus London | People are always looking at their phones and computer. It's the first place people turn in the morning and where everyone's keeping in touch and getting their news. | 125 |
Henry Ford | It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning. | 126 |
Debbie Harry | I turned on VH1 this morning just to get a little warm-up before I came over here, and I think it's just terrific. There's so much great stuff: diverse and wonderful music, good performances, great looking girls, great videos, the whole thing. | 126 |
Geraldine Brooks | Both my mum and dad were great readers, and we would go every Saturday morning to the library, and my sister and I had a library card when we could pass off something as a signature, and all of us would come with an armful of books. | 126 |
Harvey Mackay | Every morning brings new potential, but if you dwell on the misfortunes of the day before, you tend to overlook tremendous opportunities. | 126 |
Peter De Vries | I write when I'm inspired, and I see to it that I'm inspired at nine o'clock every morning. | 126 |
Regina Brett | Greet every morning with open arms and say thanks every night with a full heart. Each day is a precious gift to be savored and used, not left unopened and hoarded for a future that may never come. | 126 |
Jean Paul | Like a morning dream, life becomes more and more bright the longer we live, and the reason of everything appears more clear. What has puzzled us before seems less mysterious, and the crooked paths look straighter as we approach the end. | 126 |
Audrey Hepburn | I have to be alone very often. I'd be quite happy if I spent from Saturday night until Monday morning alone in my apartment. That's how I refuel. | 201 |
Kurt Vonnegut | I get up at 7:30 and work four hours a day. Nine to twelve in the morning, five to six in the evening. Businessmen would achieve better results if they studied human metabolism. No one works well eight hours a day. No one ought to work more than four hours. | 201 |
Virat Kohli | Pretension is a poor joke that you play on yourself. Snap out of it. Recognise your strengths, work on your weaknesses. Real achievement is liking what you see in the mirror every morning. | 201 |
Bindi Irwin | In the morning, my alarm clock is a chorus of lemurs yelling! | 201 |
Michael J. Fox | I'm going to marry a Jewish woman because I like the idea of getting up Sunday morning and going to the deli. | 201 |
Quentin Tarantino | I always do an all-night horror marathon on Saturdays where we start at seven and go until five in the morning. | 201 |
Seth MacFarlane | Some of those more out-there jokes were written in the wee hours of the morning. Somehow, they remained funny the next day. | 201 |
Shimon Peres | Early in the morning, I fell in love with the girl that later on became my wife. At that time, we were so naive. I wanted to charm her, so I read her Capital by Marx. I thought somehow she would be convinced by the strength of his criticism about capital. | 201 |
Simon Mainwaring | Your computer needn't be the first thing your see in the morning and the last thing you see at night. | 201 |
Mark Twain | If it's your job to eat a frog, it's best to do it first thing in the morning. And If it's your job to eat two frogs, it's best to eat the biggest one first. | 202 |
Ogden Nash | The bed is a bundle of paradoxes: we go to it with reluctance, yet we quit it with regret; we make up our minds every night to leave it early, but we make up our bodies every morning to keep it late. | 202 |
Tim Tebow | I have so many things to work on, and so many ways that I fail. But that's what grace is all about. And I constantly wake up every morning trying to get better, trying to improve, trying to walk closer to God. | 202 |
Moby | At the risk of sounding pedestrian, I'll be completely honest: the first thing I do in the morning is check Google News, partially because it seems sort of random and unbiased and partially because I tend to stay in hotels that don't necessarily have the fastest Internet connections. | 202 |
Sloane Crosley | I like to try to do a little work before I do anything in the morning, even if it's a paragraph. | 202 |
F. Scott Fitzgerald | In a real dark night of the soul, it is always three o'clock in the morning, day after day. | 203 |
Will Rogers | The man with the best job in the country is the vice-president. All he has to do is get up every morning and say, 'How is the president?' | 203 |
Abu Bakr | It is a matter of shame that in the morning the birds should be awake earlier than you. | 203 |
Ani DiFranco | Art is why I get up in the morning but my definition ends there. You know I don't think its fair that I'm living for something I can't even define. | 203 |
Arthur Schopenhauer | Each day is a little life: every waking and rising a little birth, every fresh morning a little youth, every going to rest and sleep a little death. | 204 |
Ray Bradbury | The great fun in my life has been getting up every morning and rushing to the typewriter because some new idea has hit me. | 204 |
Dwayne Johnson | For me, training is my meditation, my yoga, hiking, biking all rolled into one. Wake up early in the morning, generally around 4 o'clock, and I'll do my cardio on an empty stomach. Stretch, have a big breakfast, and then I'll go train. | 204 |
Carol Burnett | I do the 'New York Times' crossword puzzle every morning to keep the old grey matter ticking. | 204 |
Christopher Walken | Morning is the best time to see movies. | 204 |
Harrison Ford | What is news? It's hard to quantify. Certainly news has changed completely, and the morning shows are not really designed to bring you the news, except to tell you what happened overnight, and the rest of it is a kind of magazine mentality - a little bit of this, a little bit of that. It's harder to be an educated and informed citizen. | 204 |
Paloma Faith | I don't feel I fit in with morning television because I'm like a vampire and I like to stay up late. | 204 |
Julia Cameron | I started writing morning pages just to keep my hand in, you know, just because I was a writer and I didn't know what else to do but write. And then one day as I was writing, a character came sort of strolling in and I realized, Oh my God, I don't have to be just a screenwriter. I can write novels. | 204 |
Rabindranath Tagore | Do not say, 'It is morning,' and dismiss it with a name of yesterday. See it for the first time as a newborn child that has no name. | 205 |
Victor Hugo | He, who every morning plans the transactions of the day, and follows that plan, carries a thread that will guide him through a labyrinth of the most busy life. | 205 |
Dick Cheney | I wake up every morning literally with a smile on my face, grateful for another day I never thought I'd see. | 205 |
Larry Page | You know what it's like to wake up in the middle of the night with a vivid dream? And you know that if you don't have a pencil and pad by the bed, it will be completely gone by the next morning. Sometimes it's important to wake up and stop dreaming. When a really great dream shows up, grab it. | 205 |
Naomi Wolf | Since Reagan there has been this tradition, which has become a cliche, of promising morning in America, this fake optimism, we're the best, the city on the hill. In fact the great American task is self-scrutiny. | 205 |
Nicolas Cage | I think that 'Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance' was mentally taxing, if only because I had to go to a Christmas party shortly after I had wrapped photography in Romania at two in the morning as the Ghost Rider. The invitation had a Christmas ornament on it with Ghost Rider's face on it as a tree. | 205 |
Jennifer Love Hewitt | In the morning, before I leave the house, I say five things I love about myself, like 'You have really pretty eyes.' That way I can go out into the world with that little bit of extra confidence. | 205 |
Kobe Bryant | Christmas morning, I'm going to open presents with my kids. I'm going to take pictures of them opening the presents. Then I'm going to come to the Staples Center and get ready to work. | 206 |
Carl Sandburg | In these times you have to be an optimist to open your eyes when you awake in the morning. | 206 |
Lee Trevino | I have an orthopedic pillow that's made out of a sponge material. I have a plate in my throat, and I have to be careful or I could end up with a bad neck in the morning. That pillow is a must everywhere I go. | 206 |
Robin S. Sharma | Leave your ego at the door every morning, and just do some truly great work. Few things will make you feel better than a job brilliantly done. | 206 |
Joanna Lumley | I'm very good at getting up in the morning - so much of my life has been spent on film sets where we start at the crack of dawn. | 206 |
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow | Each morning sees some task begun, each evening sees it close; Something attempted, something done, has earned a night's repose. | 207 |
Kofi Annan | The question is the morning after. What sort of Iraq do we wake up to after the bombing? What happens in the region? What impact could it have? These are questions leaders I have spoken to have posed. | 207 |
Roger Federer | It doesn't need to be the same every day, doesn't need to be the same shower I use, the same restaurant I go to, the same hour I go to sleep. I've always been very flexible. I don't care if I practice at nine in the morning or 10 P.M. | 207 |
Matt Mullenweg | I do my best stuff midmorning and superlate at night, from 1 to 5 in the morning. Some people don't need sleep. I actually do need sleep. I just sleep all the time. I'll catch naps in the afternoon, or I'll take a 20-minute snooze in the office - just all the time. Our business is 24 hours. Our guys in Europe come online at midnight. | 207 |
Sonam Kapoor | It's not a responsibility to be a fashion diva. I enjoy it and also enjoy getting up in morning and putting on make-up, getting ready. I don't think there is any girl who doesn't like to look good and wear good clothes. | 207 |
David Mamet | I'm afraid of only two things: being lazy and being cowardly. I get up early in the morning and go to work. I love to write. | 208 |
Gunter Grass | I don't believe in writing at night because it comes too easily. When I read it in the morning it's not good. I need daylight to begin. Between nine and ten o'clock I have a long breakfast with reading and music. | 208 |
Jack White | Nowadays, everybody assumes, when they wake up in the morning, if they have a question, it will get answered. Because they have the internet. No matter what the question is, someone will answer their question. | 208 |
Joyce Meyer | God's mercy is fresh and new every morning. | 209 |
Faith Hill | I have worries and fears just like everybody else. But I have every reason to wake up each morning and be very happy. | 209 |
Mark Wahlberg | I don't go to Mass every day. But I go to church every day. Just sitting there, thinking - it's a great way to start the morning, you know? You feel so good coming out, and your approach to everything is suddenly really clear. | 209 |
Joyce Carol Oates | I haven't any formal schedule, but I love to write in the morning, before breakfast. Sometimes the writing goes so smoothly that I don't take a break for many hours - and consequently have breakfast at two or three in the afternoon on good days. | 209 |
Demi Lovato | I pray every night before I go to sleep and every morning when I wake up. | 210 |
Travis Barker | I juice a lot; I get as much protein as I can, because being a vegan, there isn't much protein. But that's pretty much it. I just drink lots of water, too. I'll have a protein shake as well every morning. | 210 |
Nicki Minaj | Sometimes I wake up in the morning and I am like, 'This is a high-top day' or 'This is a bob day,' but when I get my clothes on that's when I see. | 211 |
Ray Bradbury | Every morning I jump out of bed and step on a landmine. The landmine is me. After the explosion, I spent the rest of the day putting the pieces together. | 211 |
Edmund Hillary | Ever since the morning of May 29, 1953, when Tenzing Norgay and I became the first climbers to step onto the summit of Mount Everest, I've been called a great adventurer. | 211 |
George Foreman | Money is a good thing, but every morning you have to get up with something no one else in the world gets up with - that's that image. That face you see in the mirror, you got to love it, and you better do some things that you feel good about inside of you. Of course, money is going to come, but make certain that you do some good with it. | 211 |
Ian Somerhalder | The quality of life is so much higher anyplace you can ski in the morning and surf in the evening - there's something to be said for that. | 211 |
Travis Barker | Once in a while, I'll slip and get off my vegan diet and have egg whites in the morning, that's a good source of protein while I'm out on the road. If I can feel my body starting to tire, those are good to keep you healthy. | 211 |
Nicki Minaj | When I get up in the morning and put on a pink or a green wig, I see myself as a piece of animation. It lets me be the person I want to be, a person who's not embarrassed to have fun. | 212 |
Rob Sheffield | Thanks to the greatest invention of recent years, the MP3-playing alarm clock, I can now choose the song that wakes me up in the morning. | 212 |
Aldous Huxley | It was one of those evenings when men feel that truth, goodness and beauty are one. In the morning, when they commit their discovery to paper, when others read it written there, it looks wholly ridiculous. | 213 |
Carl Jung | A human being would certainly not grow to be seventy or eighty years old if this longevity had no meaning for the species. The afternoon of human life must also have a significance of its own and cannot be merely a pitiful appendage to life's morning. | 213 |
Alicia Keys | I grew up in the middle of everything. I walked the streets alone, I rode the trains alone, I came home at three in the morning alone; that was what I did. | 213 |
Clayton Christensen | Each of our children during their high school years went to 'early morning seminary' - scripture study classes that met in the home of a church member every school day morning from 6:30 until 7:15. | 213 |
Derek Jeter | I like to hit the gym early in the morning. I feel better throughout the day when I get in a workout first thing in the morning. | 213 |
Elizabeth Gilbert | I should just put it bluntly, because we're all sort of friends here now - it's exceedingly likely that my greatest success is behind me. Oh, so Jesus, what a thought! You know that's the kind of thought that could lead a person to start drinking gin at nine o'clock in the morning, and I don't want to go there. | 213 |
Helena Bonham Carter | It didn't matter what you look like. You don't have to get up at 5:30 in the morning and there's a lot to be said for that. Corpse Bride can just play all my parts from now on and I'll just do the voice. | 213 |
Nikki Sixx | I love Starbucks. Maybe that's a bit sad. But I definitely need my caffeine. It's what gets me out of bed in the morning. | 213 |
Noel Gallagher | What's problematic about playing stadiums and driving around in private jets and drinking champagne at 8 o'clock in the morning? What's wrong with that? I haven't got a problem with that. I can't fathom why people would. | 213 |
Pamela Anderson | Making love in the morning got me through morning sickness. I found I could be happy and throw up at the same time. | 213 |
Rachel Nichols | I love stretching in the morning. It's the first thing I do when I wake up because getting a good back-crack is so extremely satiating. I feel taller when I finally stand. | 213 |
Deepak Chopra | I, of course, meditate for two hours every morning. It's part of my schedule; I wake up at 4 a.m. every day and I love it. | 214 |
Al Pacino | It's never really that much fun for me to do movies anyway, because you - you know, you have to get up very early in the morning and you have to go in and you spend a lot of time waiting around. | 214 |
Kyle Chandler | When you walk out of your house in the morning, you don't know what you're going to see. | 214 |
Penelope Cruz | Sometimes you will do a close-up for a scene in the morning where you are totally distraught, then shoot the rest of that scene seven hours later. How do you hang on to that feeling all day without burning up, without going so far that you have nothing left to give when the cameras roll again? | 214 |
Michael Leunig | Like normal people, leftists now have to get up in the morning and earn a living, seeing as the fascists have come down so hard on social welfare fraud, and this is the cruel reality. The good old days are gone, and increasingly, leftists are to be found working in ordinary, proper jobs. | 214 |
Demetri Martin | I like to use 'I Can't Believe it's Not Butter' on my toast in the morning, because sometimes when I eat breakfast, I like to be incredulous. How was breakfast? Unbelievable. | 215 |
Daniel Goleman | Every morning, I go off to a small studio behind my house to write. I try to ignore all email and phone calls until lunchtime. Then I launch into the sometimes frantic busy-ness of a tightly scheduled day. | 215 |
Pharrell Williams | Remember my first tenet in getting dressed is how you feel in the morning. So if you're not being true blue to that, it usually shows. | 215 |
Tom Brady | Sometimes, getting up in the morning and brushing your teeth is the hardest part of the day - it all just hurts. | 215 |
Joe Biden | My dad used to have an expression - 'It is the lucky person who gets up in the morning, puts both feet on the floor, knows what they are about to do, and thinks it still matters.' | 216 |
P. J. O'Rourke | I think it's been hard for people to understand how Islam can be a good religion, and yet the Islamists are evil. Those of us who have had experience with Islam understand this, just as we understand the difference between snake handlers and people going to church on Sunday morning. | 216 |
Victoria Beckham | I'm living in Beverly Hills. I'm very, very lucky. I wake up every morning and I recognize that I'm blessed. | 216 |
Antonio Banderas | I wake up every morning, look in the mirror and ask, 'Am I a sex symbol?' Then I go back to bed again. It's stupid to think that way. | 216 |
James D. Watson | I have an odd theory on happiness, and it bothers people. My general theory is that happiness is a reward for an animal doing what it should be doing. So if a horse runs, it feels happy. Or if you are too thin, you can't be happy, because evolution wants you to be tense and anxious, trying to wake up in the morning looking for food. | 216 |
Demetri Martin | And my only rule being if when I wake in the morning I'm looking forward to the things that I have to do that day, then I'm on the right track. | 217 |
Beth Ditto | For me the greatest revenge of all is having a happy adulthood, waking up in my gorgeous turquoise bedroom in the morning beside a person who really inspires me. That's the best revenge a girl-loving girl from the Bible belt could possibly have. And, importantly, it's healthy. | 218 |
Paul Theroux | I have spent my life on the road waking in a pleasant, or not so pleasant hotel, and setting off every morning after breakfast hoping to discover something new and repeatable, something worth writing about. | 218 |
Samuel Taylor Coleridge | How like herrings and onions our vices are in the morning after we have committed them. | 218 |
Alan Moore | I really can't be bothered going to a barber. And shaving every morning, that's nightmarish. I spent my teenage years covered in tiny little bits of toilet paper. | 218 |
Bono | It's a privilege to serve the poor, to be servants of noble Africans, but I better belong in the rehearsal room or in the studio with my band. That's where I want to be and I still wake up in the morning with melodies in my head. | 220 |
Marc Jacobs | I don't know, but I always loved that image of a girl putting toenail polish on a guy - her boyfriend, or something like that. Or a guy waking up in the morning and reaching over and putting on his girlfriend's shirt. Like Keith Richards putting on one of Anita Pallenberg's blouses, or Courtney Love putting nail polish on Kurt Cobain. | 220 |
Mahatma Gandhi | Prayer is the key of the morning and the bolt of the evening. | 222 |
Gary Oldman | My favorite meal would have to be good old-fashioned eggs, over easy, with bacon. Many others, but you can't beat that on a Sunday morning, especially with a cup of tea. | 222 |
Rafael Nadal | Even if I have already peaked, I have to believe I can improve. I wake up every morning, and go to practice, with the illusion that I'm going to get better that day. | 222 |
Jimmy Carter | I've just finished my 20th book this past year and I'm working on my 21st book about the Middle East right now that I'll finish this year. And I get up early in the morning and when I get tired of the computer and tired of doing research, I walk 20 steps out to my woodshop and I either build furniture or paint paintings. I'm an artist too. | 223 |
Alan Rickman | I love perfumes. Every morning when my girlfriend and I come down to the courtyard in our block of flats we're assailed by the most delicious scent - jasmine round a doorway. It almost makes me swoon. | 223 |
Hunter S. Thompson | The person who doesn't scatter the morning dew will not comb gray hairs. | 224 |
Francis Ford Coppola | By working in the morning, I find a sense of peace; it's isolated peace, but I can definitely be in touch with my feelings, and then I just start. | 224 |
Tom Brady | After the first day of practice, there's not one guy who's playing at 100 percent or who feels great. Sometimes, getting up in the morning and brushing your teeth is the hardest part of the day - it just hurts. | 224 |
Tom Robbins | I show up in my writing room at approximately 10 A.M. every morning without fail. Sometimes my muse sees fit to join me there and sometimes she doesn't, but she always knows where I'll be. She doesn't need to go hunting in the taverns or on the beach or drag the boulevard looking for me. | 224 |
Zooey Deschanel | I think I'm a fun flatmate. I'm always cheerful. I go on tour with my band so it's 12 people on one bus and I feel like I'm the one who's happy in the morning. I'm not a chaotic person, but I might slack off on doing the dishes from time to time. | 224 |
Ice Cube | I wake up at 5:30, 6 in the morning, but don't head into the office right away. I like to hang out with my wife, talk about things, get some coffee, you know. | 225 |
George Clooney | On Christmas morning, before we could open our Christmas presents, we would go to this stranger's home and bring them presents. I remember helping clean the house up and putting up a tree. My father believed that you have a responsibility to look after everyone else. | 225 |
Haruki Murakami | I get up early in the morning, 4 o'clock, and I sit at my desk and what I do is just dream. After three or four hours, that's enough. In the afternoon, I run. | 225 |
Kid Rock | Make no mistake: Bob Ritchie's up early in the morning taking pictures of his son on the first day of his senior year. Kid Rock is passed out in a hotel room somewhere with four scantily-clad women. | 225 |
Tori Amos | My mother says I was two-and-a-half when I started playing. My father was a minister, and when he went to church in the morning, she would put on Fats Waller, Billie Holiday, Nat King Cole and Cole Porter records. I'd crawl up on the piano stool, sit on a phone book and play. | 226 |
Elon Musk | If you get up in the morning and think the future is going to be better, it is a bright day. Otherwise, it's not. | 301 |
Rodney Dangerfield | My mother had morning sickness after I was born. | 301 |
Ben Shapiro | When I was a kid, I'd wake up extraordinarily early every morning and turn on the television, scanning for episodes of 'The Jetsons.' For some reason, I loved the notion of a future where there would be flying cars, supercomputers, and most of all, robot maids to take care of the chores. | 301 |
Anne Lamott | I wish I had thrown out the bathroom scale at age 16. Weighing yourself every morning is like waking up and asking Dick Cheney to validate your sense of inner worth. | 302 |
David Mamet | There's nothing in the world more silent than the telephone the morning after everybody pans your play. It won't ring from room service; your mother won't be calling you. If the phone has not rung by 8 in the morning, you're dead. | 302 |
Wole Soyinka | I'm not one of those writers I learned about who get up in the morning, put a piece of paper in their typewriter machine and start writing. That I've never understood. | 302 |
Susan Orlean | The first thing I think about when I wake up most mornings is the fact that I'm tired. I have been tired for decades. I am tired in the morning and I am tired while becalmed in the slough of the afternoon, and I am tired in the evening, except right when I try to go to sleep. | 302 |
Steve Harvey | If you'd asked me then if I saw how big 'The Steve Harvey Morning Show' was going to be, I couldn't tell you. But I knew I could reach people not as a character but as Steve Harvey, because although I tell jokes for a living, I've also lived, and I think I can relate to you more than you know. | 303 |
Lewis Black | And I know this happens because I took economics, and I'd explain it to ya, but I flunked that course. Not my fault. They taught it at 8 o'clock in the morning. And there is absolutely nothing you can learn out of one bloodshot eye. | 304 |
Steven Wright | When I woke up this morning my girlfriend asked me, 'Did you sleep good?' I said 'No, I made a few mistakes.' | 308 |
Nelson Mandela | I have retired, but if there's anything that would kill me it is to wake up in the morning not knowing what to do. | 309 |
Magic Johnson | I do not have bad days. I don't wake up in the morning and think that I'm going to get AIDS. I don't dream bad dreams about it. If I did, I'd be giving in to the negativity. | 309 |
Neil Gaiman | As far as I'm concerned, the entire reason for becoming a writer is not having to get up in the morning. | 312 |
Tim Tebow | It was huge to read the Proverbs of the day every morning, it was huge to read the Psalm of the day every morning and to get that in us and get us going before the day even started. | 312 |
Barack Obama | I miss Saturday morning, rolling out of bed, not shaving, getting into my car with my girls, driving to the supermarket, squeezing the fruit, getting my car washed, taking walks. | 314 |
Johnny Depp | There are times when you see how ridiculous is this life, how ludicrous it is, you know, leaving your house every morning and being followed by paparazzi. | 316 |
Sylvester Stallone | Every morning, I crawl out of bed. I sit there and think, 'Do I really need this?' And I drag myself to the gym in my garage. It's not fun. I hate it. I work out alone. Weights. | 316 |
Ernest Hemingway | When I am working on a book or a story, I write every morning as soon after first light as possible. There is no one to disturb you, and it is cool or cold, and you come to your work and warm as you write. | 319 |
Zig Ziglar | Whether it's eight o'clock in the morning or eight o'clock at night, I always try to greet others before they have a chance to speak to me. | 319 |
Henry David Thoreau | The light which puts out our eyes is darkness to us. Only that day dawns to which we are awake. There is more day to dawn. The sun is but a morning star. | 403 |
Ernest Hemingway | I wake up in the morning and my mind starts making sentences, and I have to get rid of them fast - talk them or write them down. | 403 |
Angelina Jolie | To be intimate with a married man, when my own father cheated on my mother, is not something I could forgive. I could not look at myself in the morning if I did that. I wouldn't be attracted to a man who would cheat on his wife. | 403 |
Salman Rushdie | I've always prided myself on my discipline as a writer. I do it like a job. I get up in the morning and go to my desk. | 403 |
Christian Louboutin | I'm very detail oriented. Everything that takes a lot of dedication and creativity I do in the morning when there is light and I'm really concentrated. | 412 |
Christian Louboutin | Fruit in the morning is such a big joy for me. I like to grab fruit from the tree, et cetera. I don't feel that way with vegetables. Fruit, you can eat it at any time, any moment, in any type of situation. I like everything about fruit; I like the color. | 414 |
Ralph Waldo Emerson | In the morning a man walks with his whole body; in the evening, only with his legs. | 415 |
Mitt Romney | And this President wakes up every morning, looks out across America and is proud to announce, 'It could be worse.' It could be worse? Is that what it means to be an American? It could be worse? Of course not. What defines us as Americans is our unwavering conviction that we know it must be better. | 417 |
Bill Gates | Just in terms of allocation of time resources, religion is not very efficient. There's a lot more I could be doing on a Sunday morning. | 421 |
Joseph B. Wirthlin | Our families should gather for family prayer morning and night. | 422 |
Hunter S. Thompson | Nixon was so crooked that he needed servants to help him screw his pants on every morning. | 424 |
John Lydon | I went to visit Alcatraz years ago when I was on tour with the Pistols, and I really liked the atmosphere of the place. I genuinely, really, thoroughly enjoyed the whole morning there. I just liked the quietness and stillness of what is basically a cruel prison complex. I still found some kind of joy in that. That's how I am. | 503 |
Henry Rollins | Every year, August lashes out in volcanic fury, rising with the din of morning traffic, its great metallic wings smashing against the ground, heating the air with ever-increasing intensity. | 525 |
Benjamin Franklin | I wake up every morning at nine and grab for the morning paper. Then I look at the obituary page. If my name is not on it, I get up. | 614 |
Henry David Thoreau | I have a great deal of company in the house, especially in the morning when nobody calls. | 616 |
Stephen Hawking | I'm never any good in the morning. It is only after four in the afternoon that I get going. | 701 |
Henry David Thoreau | All men are children, and of one family. The same tale sends them all to bed, and wakes them in the morning. | 719 |
Joel Osteen | There's pros and cons of a big church. Cons is I don't get to know everybody, I don't get to go to their ballgame, I don't get to marry everybody, but the pros are you get all this community, 800 ushers come in to serve, getting there at 7 in the morning on their day off and coming in on Saturday to make all those wafers. | 720 |
Maya Angelou | Fighting for one's freedom, struggling towards being free, is like struggling to be a poet or a good Christian or a good Jew or a good Muslim or good Zen Buddhist. You work all day long and achieve some kind of level of success by nightfall, go to sleep and wake up the next morning with the job still to be done. So you start all over again. | 820 |
Benjamin Franklin | I look upon death to be as necessary to our constitution as sleep. We shall rise refreshed in the morning. | 824 |
Henry David Thoreau | In my afternoon walk I would fain forget all my morning occupations and my obligations to society. | 901 |
Maya Angelou | I keep a hotel room in my town, although I have a large house. And I go there at about 5:30 in the morning, and I start working. And I don't allow anybody to come in that room. I work on yellow pads and with ballpoint pens. I keep a Bible, a thesaurus, a dictionary, and a bottle of sherry. I stay there until midday. | 919 |
Maya Angelou | It's still scary every time I go back to the past. Each morning, my heart catches. When I get there, I remember how the light was, where the draft was coming from, what odors were in the air. When I write, I get all the weeping out. | 1007 |
