25 years later, you know, I haven’t really put too much emphasis on any kind of individual goal, other than trying to win any particular night, trying to find a way to do that.
In the middle of the night, when you’re ambiguously ethnic, like me, when you’re brown, beige, mauve, siena, one of those lighter browns in the Crayola box. You have to be careful of the cops and robbers, because nobody’s quite sure what you are, but everybody has assumptions.
Never work just for money or for power. They won’t save your soul or help you sleep at night.
I started on ‘Saturday Night Live’ the same time Conan started on Late Night. We just had a relationship because I would be upstairs in the studio and whenever he couldn’t get a guest – which was often back then since he was just starting out – he would just call me down to be a guest.
The less I behave like Whistler’s mother the night before, the more I look like her the morning after.
It’s called ‘The 10th Muse.’ I’m the 10th daughter of Zeus – the forgotten Muse. By day, I’m a district attorney; by night, I fight crime with my martial-arts skills.
One night, militia tried to break into our home, and the exterior was riddled with bullets.
I have Social Disease. I have to go out every night. If I stay home one night I start spreading rumors to my dogs.
Sometimes I lie awake at night and ask why me? Then a voice answers nothing personal, your name just happened to come up.
People ask me all the time, ‘What keeps you up at night?’ And I say, ‘Spicy Mexican food, weapons of mass destruction, and cyber attacks.’
Last night I stayed up late playing poker with Tarot cards. I got a full house and four people died.
You’ve just got to bring it every night. And that’s what makes the great players great.
My parents were just constantly affirming me in everything that I did. Late at night, I’d wake up and hear my mother talking over my bed, saying, ‘You’re going to do great on this test. You can do anything you want.’
My candle burns at both ends; it will not last the night; but ah, my foes, and oh, my friends – it gives a lovely light!
Trust your instincts: they tend to see you right. By listening to them, at least you can sleep at night.
The doors between the old man today and the child are still open, wide open. I can stroll through my grandmother’s house and know exactly where the pictures are, the furniture was, how it looked, the voice, the smells. I can move from my bed at night today to my childhood in less than a second.
I don’t like a heavy mask of make-up day or night – mascara and a bit of bronzer.
My dad was a congressman, and he taught me at a very early age, ‘They voted for me, they view me as theirs, and I am.’ Our family’s phone in Memphis was always listed. It rang all day and all night.
I will be driving on the road after a show at night, and it will hit me that I am a WWE superstar, and this is what I dreamed about, and I get to live it.
The mobile phone is used from when you get up in the morning and is often the last thing you interact with at night.
I want to spend the night alone in a haunted mansion. I wouldn’t say I’m sceptical because that word implies the truth is out there when there is no truth out there.
The streets were dark with something more than night.
Before I became a writer, I was running a jazz bar in the center of Tokyo, which means that I worked in filthy air all the time late into the night. I was very excited when I started making a living out of my writing, and I decided, ‘I will live in nothing but an absolutely healthy way.’
Home is, I suppose just a child’s idea. A house at night, and a lamp in the house. A place to feel safe.
Medicine is my lawful wife and literature my mistress; when I get tired of one, I spend the night with the other.
I’m for whatever gets you through the night.
We’ve accounted for 95 percent of all the stars in the Milky Way. The other 5 percent are big, bright stars – the kind that dominate the night sky, but are lamentably both rare and short-lived. If biology’s your thing, you can forget those guys.
President Bush spent last night calling world leaders to support the war with Iraq and it is sad when the most powerful man on earth is yelling, ‘I know you’re there, pick up, pick up.
Trust me, there’s not one night a week I’m not in a theater somewhere. I adore theater, and I go out with friends, so I do have some nights off.
Monday night, there ain’t a better time to showcase your talent.
My dinners at home are startlingly simple. Every night, I stop at the market near my hotel and pick up a steak, lamb chops or some liver, which I broil in the electric oven in my room. I usually eat four or five raw carrots with my meat, and that is all. I must be part rabbit; I never get bored with raw carrots.
I like to go outside at night by myself and look at the sky and just appreciate it. I’m not that big of a weirdo, but – occasionally.
But nothing beats a Woody Allen film on a Sunday night, with a glass of wine and some leftovers.
The great thing about doing theater is that you get to do it better the next night.
There is a myth that Rahman sir only works at night. He works through the day and night, so it depends what time slot you end up working with him. Besides nights, I have sung for him in the morning and at noon, too. I think he’s the first composer to work at night, and that’s why it’s spoken about so much.
When other students would study after classes, I would go out again to work out and then study in the night.
I often lay on that bench looking up into the tree, past the trunk and up into the branches. It was particularly fine at night with the stars above the tree.
I never played against my own age, and I was one of the best players. That’s when I would get really nervous, maybe not sleep the night before a game.
I was born in London, and went to school in Scotland – I used to be dead tired when I got home at night.
I mean, my students are texting me all the time. It could be 10 o’clock at night, ‘Hey Dr. B., can you check my thesis statement?’ You know, I’m in bed!
Going out at night and having a fabulous social life takes a lot out of you, and I don’t know if I have that much to give, honestly. I would rather give that time to my kids or spend that time reading a book or watching a film. I am selfish and lazy.
When I was a teenager, my dad used to call me ‘Hollywood’ because I wore sunglasses all the time, even at night. Cue song.
That I be not as those are who spend the day in complaining of headache and the night in drinking the wine which gives the headache!
No man knows till he has suffered from the night how sweet and dear to his heart and eye the morning can be.
I’m in a difficult position in the sense that, preposterous as this might sound, I don’t like being the centre of attention. I get up on stage every night and play songs, but I almost feel the songs are the centre of attention. I don’t like opening my birthday presents in front of people, either.
Do not go gentle into that good night but rage, rage against the dying of the light.
I go to bed angry every night, and I get up angrier every morning.
The X Games have done night and day for snowboarding and action sports.
I do dream. I mean, I must every night, right? But I only remember a couple a year.
I can get a black eye, a bloody nose. I can have a bad day in the gym. At the end of the day, I don’t have a bad payday, and I don’t have a bad night under the lights… I get bumps, bruises… but I don’t have a bad night.
Your computer needn’t be the first thing your see in the morning and the last thing you see at night.
It takes a big idea to attract the attention of consumers and get them to buy your product. Unless your advertising contains a big idea, it will pass like a ship in the night. I doubt if more than one campaign in a hundred contains a big idea.
My typical Saturday night is a great solo dinner at one of my favorite restaurants. I like to talk to the restaurant staff while I eat, then come home, finish up some work until midnight, and then play the keyboard until I’m ready to sleep.
I’ve become very interested in the spectrum of political discourse as seen on the cable news channels that are conveniently right in a row on my cable provider’s dial. I can flip from Fox to CNN to HLN to MSNBC, and I find myself at night flipping it back and forth through them, and it’s something of an addiction.
If I had something to say about my lyrics, I would say they were about different subjects concerning the darkness and the night.
Few if any teenagers can relate to getting up for school and finding famous comics like Pryor and Williams hanging out in your living room after a hard night of partying. But that’s Hollywood.
I lose sleep at night wondering whether we are intelligent enough to figure out the universe. I don’t know.
I got my first Charvet knit tie when I was 15. I actually stole it from my father. I love them because you can wear them day to night. They’re French and preppy and have been around since the 1800s.
I was released by Chelsea at 14 years old. I remember it, a Tuesday night. On the Wednesday, I was training with Fulham, five minutes from my house, and then on the Thursday, I was training with West Ham. After one session at both clubs, they both wanted me.
