It says something about this new global economy that USA Today now reports every morning on the day's events in Asian markets.

I remember lying down for a nap one day at about 4:00 and walking up at 11:00 the next morning.

Early on the next morning we reached Kansas about five hundred miles from the mouth of the Missouri.

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.

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.

I sit down at my desk pretty early in the morning and write all day until about 4 or 5 p.m.

I write in the morning from about eight till noon and sometimes again a bit in the afternoon. In the morning I start off by going over what I had done the previous day which my wife has happily typed up for me.

I'll get up in the morning while they've all got hangovers and run my 5 miles. But the women who do run are usually 10 years younger than me and they're really obsessed about running. That's all they do. They're really boring.

I went to dance classes from 9 in the morning until 1 then to school from 3 to 10 at night always under the threat that if I failed a single course I could forget about dancing.

I was half asleep lying there writing this lyric in my head at about 3:30 in the morning. I woke Steve up with this idea and then we went into the living room where there was a little upright piano and finished the song. I wonder where that piano is now?

You feel a little older in the morning. By noon I feel about 55.

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.

It was important on The Shipping News to have my house far enough away from each location so I had this time in the morning to think about my shots and still remain open to surprises once I got to the set.

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.

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!

We don't watch the film anymore because we've seen it so many times so we'll introduce it walk out and we'll come back in right about when I wake up in the morning and walk over to the shop and everything's changed.

I was getting to bed about 10 P.M. so wound up and not getting to sleep by 11 and because I was putting the prosthetics on for five hours I had to be up at 3 in the morning.

I was up late last night yapping about the elections on CNN and up early this morning doing the same thing in my daughter's kindergarten class.

It's such a luxury to be able to be happy about going to work in the morning.

I open with a clock striking to beget an awful attention in the audience - it also marks the time which is four o clock in the morning and saves a description of the rising sun and a great deal about gilding the eastern hemisphere.

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.

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.

The thing I care about is my weight - I'm as fanatical about it as a member of Girls Aloud. I weigh myself every morning. I know exactly what I want to be - 82kg - and I try to stick to it.

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.
