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.
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.
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.
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.
'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.
For us political activists and candidates the morning after any election is a mix of emotions - the personal and the immediate the culmination of your own recent campaigning efforts and the fortunes of your party and the success or otherwise of what you stand for and believe in.
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.
In these days a man is nobody unless his biography is kept so far posted up that it may be ready for the national breakfast-table on the morning after his demise.
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.
It is not time for mirth and laughter the cold gray dawn of the morning after.
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.
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 less I behave like Whistler's mother the night before the more I look like her the morning after.
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.
How like herrings and onions our vices are in the morning after we have committed them.
My mother had morning sickness after I was born.
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.
In my afternoon walk I would fain forget all my morning occupations and my obligations to society.
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.
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.'
In a real dark night of the soul it is always three o'clock in the morning day after day.
First and foremost I am a drummer. After that I'm other things... But I didn't play drums to make money.
What we get from this adventure is just sheer joy. And joy is after all the end of life. We do not live to eat and make money.
False opinions are like false money struck first of all by guilty men and thereafter circulated by honest people who perpetuate the crime without knowing what they are doing.
One important theme is the extent to which one can ever correct an error especially outside any frame of religious forgiveness. All of us have done something we regret - how we manage to remove that from our conscience or whether that's even possible interested me.
