What I'm not saying is that all government spending is bad. It's not - far far from it but there is no free lunch as a former colleague of mine used to say. There is no public tooth fairy. Father Christmas does not work on the Treasury staff this year. You can never bail someone out of trouble without putting someone else into trouble.

I believe in stopping work and eating lunch.

I had a 2-week courtship with a fellow student in the fiction workshop in Iowa and a 5-minute wedding in a lawyer's office above the coffee shop where we'd been having lunch that day. And so I sent a cable to my father saying 'By the time you get this Daddy I'll already be Mrs. Blaise!'

Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.

New technology is useful but it's inefficient and ugly it knows it'll be obsolete by lunchtime tomorrow so it has no incentive to be anything else.

When I take my kids out for dinner or lunch people smile at us.

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.

I have come to understand and appreciate writers much more recently since I started working on a book last fall. Before that I thought golf writers got up every morning played a round of golf had lunch showed up for our last three holes and then went to dinner.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

In the morning we received some very thin coffee. For lunch we had potato soup with a few pieces of meat in it in the evening we had a very thin meat soup with some potatoes in it.

I love Westerns and I remember as a kid climbing up on the couch and make it into a saddle and shoot guns and fall off. I would lay there after my death and my mom would tell me to eat lunch and I'd say 'I'm still dead Mom!' I was Method even then.

I never liked apples. In fact when I was a little girl my mom wanted to give me apples in my lunch box and I would ask for green peppers. So bizarre... It's funny - I don't have an apple a day but I can say that I have a few a week.

My very sassy older southern sister is very quick to point out that it's a luxury that my daughter gets to come to work with me. She does and I have lunch with her every single day. My mom says I have 'high class problems.'

A bachelor's life is a fine breakfast a flat lunch and a miserable dinner.

I haven't trusted polls since I read that 62% of women had affairs during their lunch hour. I've never met a woman in my life who would give up lunch for sex.

From a parent's right to know what their children are doing to protecting citizens across the country from the growing threat of gang violence the House Democrat leadership is simply out to lunch.

I'm an afternoon tea type of girl. I come from a Russian background where we love our teas. So between lunch and dinner after training I come home and I love a nice cup of tea with jam in it as we drink it there. Black English Breakfast with raspberry jam is my favorite.

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.

You can't set a hen in one morning and have chicken salad for lunch.

My body is like breakfast lunch and dinner. I don't think about it I just have it.
