My goal isn’t to wake up in the morning and hurt people’s feelings.
With the pandemic crushing the world, I pray for everyone’s health and well-being. I wish the world heals fast. Every morning I wake up with the hope that a vaccine gets invented soon to combat Covid-19.
There is no peace because the making of peace is at least as costly as the making of war – at least as exigent, at least as disruptive, at least as liable to bring disgrace and prison and death in its wake.
For some reason, ever since I was a little kid, I wake with the most energy of the day, and it slowly declines from there.
It’s time to wake up to the fact that you’re just another avatar in someone else’s MMO. Worse: From where they stand, all-powerful Big Data analysts that they are, you look an awful lot like a bot.
It was like being in the eye of a hurricane. You’d wake up in a concert and think, Wow, how did I get here?
What’s the first thing I do when I wake up in the morning? Wish I hadn’t.
When I wake up every morning, I smile and say, ‘Thank you.’ Because out of my window I can see the mountains, then go hiking with my dog and share her bounding joy in the world.
The best thing I’ve done with my money is buy a house for my family. You wake up to a house you love and you feel like somebody.
Leaders must wake people out of inertia. They must get people excited about something they’ve never seen before, something that does not yet exist.
I wake up at 5:30, 6 in the morning, but don’t head into the office right away. I like to hang out with my wife, talk about things, get some coffee, you know.
I wake up in the morning, I do a little stretching exercises, pick up the horn and play.
I have a recurring nightmare that I wake up in a gutter with nothing. I’ve had it all my life. That’s why I work, I think.
I have to say when we talk about the treatment of these prisoners that I would guess that these prisoners wake up every morning thanking Allah that Saddam Hussein is not in charge of these prisons.
I always wake up 10 minutes before I have to be anywhere.
What keeps me interested is that I have to do it. It’s like people wake up and they have to breathe; I have to write songs; I have to make music. That’s like eating or breathing to me. It’s that simple.
It’s not my fault that there is this gap between rich and poor, it is the fault of governments. I want a different world. One where I don’t wake up thinking I’m so lucky to be able to feed my daughter.
Vain hopes are like certain dreams of those who wake.
From a very young age, I would fall off the bed and wake up on the floor because of dreams. I have a memory from the age of four in which I felt God.
I always wanted to do something I knew I could love to wake up and do every day, and rap was just second nature to me, growing up in Harlem. I never really had to try.
I hadn’t accepted he was seriously ill. The idea that someone so close to you couldn’t wake up was utterly incomprehensible. Then the doctor came in… Maurice had no brain left. There wasn’t any activity at all.
I find motion, literally, is where ideas come from. It’s almost like a built-in rhythm section. The contents of the songs are about change, and a lot of that stuff happens when you’re on tour, and you wake up and you’re in a different place and you start thinking about where you’re going and where you’ve been.
I can get moody sometimes when I wake up after a nap – I’m like a four-year-old.
When you are doing a TV series, people tell you when you have to wake up and when you have to have lunch, and I don’t like it.
The alarm rings 4:45, again at 5, but I wake up 4:30 naturally. Shower, shave, orange juice, perk my own coffee, hear the news, and the CBS car arrives 5:30.
My first job was a McDonald’s commercial. It made me want to wake up at 4 A.M. to do something I loved. I haven’t been the same since.
I hit Damian Fuller with a left hook that left him laid out for 30-45 minutes. They brought oxygen to him, they couldn’t wake him up, he was out cold. The television station kept having to take breaks, he was out so long. It was unbelievable. That was the best one-shot I’ve ever done in my life.
I go through phases when I’ve been filming where I wake up in the middle of the night and I think I’m being filmed.
So you wake up this morning and find you’re president of the United States. Pretty cool, no? Helicopters and a 747 at your disposal; courtside seats at any NBA playoff game of your choice; everyone stands up and the band plays when you come into the room.
It was hysterical going to work. I would just walk in and think, ‘What in hell? Am I here? What’s going on? I’m going to wake up in a minute. I’m in a dream.’
Forgive me if I sleep until I wake up.
I should have liked to get married, but over many decades I have lived essentially alone. I go to sleep when I’m tired, get up when I wake up, have my food prepared when I’m hungry. I can’t bear the thought that I’d have to coincide, make an effort.
I feel my knees changing – like, why do I have this pain when I’m running on the treadmill? What’s going on with my lower back when I wake up in the morning? I just feel changes. And I’m definitely fearful in a very vain manner about my body ageing.
I woke up full of hate and fear the day before the most recent peace march in San Francisco. This was disappointing: I’d hoped to wake up feeling somewhere between Virginia Woolf and Wavy Gravy.
I’d wake up in the morning and I would think, ‘Where am I?’ I’d have to gather myself.
I don’t see ‘lines of force’ as being destructive, except to the extent that they are exclusively traceable through observance of the path of distorted material left in their wake.
My dad used to wake me up at 5:30 in the morning and hit me ground balls and tell me, ‘Don’t be afraid to excel. Don’t be afraid to be great.’
I can’t remember my dreams more than a couple of seconds after I wake up. It’s frustrating because sometimes I dream that I’m watching a really good movie.
I used to wake up and look at our analytics and think, ‘What if yesterday was the last day anyone used Pinterest?’ Like, everyone collectively decided, ‘We’re done!’ Over time I got more confidence.
I feel sorry for people who don’t drink. When they wake up in the morning, that’s as good as they’re going to feel all day.
Every morning I wake up with new ideas.
Nowadays, everybody assumes, when they wake up in the morning, if they have a question, it will get answered. Because they have the internet. No matter what the question is, someone will answer their question.
The moment I wake up, I have to eat. If I don’t eat, I feel like my blood pressure is dropping. I get crabby if I have gone more than half an hour without eating.
Any artist that is even surviving right now is a dark horse because things change pretty fast. You’re a superstar one day and wake up the next day and you’re anonymous. To be successful in any way is beating the odds right now, I think.
We can choose to wake up and grumble all day and be bitter and angry and judge others and find satisfaction in others doing bad instead of good. Or we can we wake up with optimism and love and say, ‘Just what is this beautiful day going to bring me?’
A cheat day for me, the first thing that I crave, I’ll eat. That’s my rule. So if I wake up and I want pancakes, I’m gonna eat pancakes. If I want a cheeseburger for lunch or for dinner, I’m gonna eat it. If I want fries, I’m gonna eat the fries.
Mom still has a huge, beautifully decorated Christmas tree. The whole family comes together after midnight mass and has the traditional plum cake and wine. We spend the night at mom’s home, and in the morning we wake up and open the presents. In the afternoon, we sit down to have a traditional Christmas lunch.
Every time we go to sleep, it’s a rehearsal of the day when our eyes will ultimately close and we wake up on the side of eternity.
I think ‘work’ is anything I’m doing with intention and purpose. There is absolutely no negative connotation to the word ‘work’ for me – I feel lucky that I get to wake up every day and spend my days doing things I believe in.
I’m knackered. I’m knackered all the time. My stupid, tiny children wake me up at 5:48 A.M. every single morning.
I just kind of wake up with a new idea and new dreams every day, and I follow that dream, as they say.
Generally, when I wake up in the morning I set out a series of problems for myself and I write them down, and when I’m sleeping, my mind solves the problems. When I wake up in the morning, I have more clarity on the issue.
If I wake up one day and people tell me I’m not sexy, I’m not going to stop making good music and having fun. That ‘sex symbol’ thing is typically part of being in the limelight. You better be very talented in your music, but it’s good to be nice to look at, I guess.
To wake up to the sound of my son saying ‘Mama, mama!’ It’s the best sound ever.
Guys wake up at your place and they expect breakfast. They don’t eat bagels and M&M’s in the morning. They want things like toast. I say, ‘I don’t have these recipes.’
I have worries and fears just like everybody else. But I have every reason to wake up each morning and be very happy.
I love stretching in the morning. It’s the first thing I do when I wake up because getting a good back-crack is so extremely satiating. I feel taller when I finally stand.
