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. – Jonas Salk
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? – Gwyneth Paltrow
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. – Josh McDowell
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. – Joan Collins
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. – Iain Duncan Smith
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. – Joss Whedon
If you’re going to do something tonight that you’ll be sorry for tomorrow morning, sleep late. – Henny Youngman
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. – Julia Cameron
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. – Jenny McCarthy
Since I was about seven, I’ve loved cooking. I’d wake up at five in the morning and make cinnamon rolls and all these different things. – Jane Chen
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. – Ina Garten
I think people have to sharpen their eyes and look. I always feel like a big sponge: I feel like I learn lots of things by osmosis, and I feel that I’m always absorbing. I mean, when people say, ‘What is your inspiration?’ I could throw up. I mean, I’m inspired by the fact I get up in the morning. And I’m still here. – Iris Apfel
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. – Jack LaLanne
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. – Jeff Lemire
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. – Joel Osteen
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? – Jack LaLanne
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. – Jerry Spinelli
There’s a perception that police are less likely to do the marginal additional policing that suppresses crime: the getting out of your car at 2 in the morning and saying to a group of guys, ‘What are you doing here?’ – James Comey
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. – Jennie Finch
I always start everything with the weather, because the weather is the first thing that I notice when I wake up in the morning. – Julia Cameron
I am not – thank heavens – one of those ‘driven’ writers who spend a fortnight buckled with empty fright over an untouched page only to wake at two in the morning feverish with paragraphs. – Jim Crace
‘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. – Jerry Saltz
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. – James Herriot
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. – Irv Kupcinet
As a kid in Africa, you were so connected to nature itself because you went farming, watched the moon out at night, observed how the sky was different, and how the birds chanted different songs in the evening and the morning. – Ishmael Beah
The average, healthy, well-adjusted adult gets up at seven-thirty in the morning feeling just plain terrible. – Jean Kerr
Later, in the afternoon, I read what I did that morning. It’s almost always a surprise. But I can read it rationally; edit, polish, re-write, and think what I might do tomorrow in the early darkness. – Jeff Lindsay
