True love, to me, is when she’s the first thought that goes through your head when you wake up and the last thought that goes through your head before you go to sleep.
Running in Central Park is my favorite thing to wake up and do. I have my own specific path that I have to run every single time. There’s a little bit of OCD involved, but I love it.
When I’m on the road, I wake up early and walk a lot. I’m very healthy. But when I come back home, I am more tempted by guilty pleasures, such as eating too many sweets and sleeping a lot.
I wake up every morning at nine and grab for the morning paper. Then I look at the obituary page. If my name is not on it, I get up.
I never do anything that doesn’t feel natural to me. I wake up in the morning and I know what to put on – it’s my sixth sense, really.
I have nightmares that I’m going to wake up, and everyone’s driving a Prius and living in a condo, and we’re all getting health insurance.
I feel like hair is the number one thing that makes me feel beautiful or not. If I have really bad hair, but my makeup’s beautiful and I have a wonderful dress on, I’m still not happy. So if I wake up, and I’ve got 2 big zits on my face and my hair looks fierce, I feel ok. I have a weird hair obsession.
Every role is a potential lover. I ask: Are they someone I want to wake up to in the morning and go to bed with at night? Do they question my assumptions about life? Consume me to distraction? Make my cry, then clown to make me laugh again? If I say yes, then it’s all I need.
I don’t want to express alienation. It isn’t what I feel. I’m interested in various kinds of passionate engagement. All my work says be serious, be passionate, wake up.
If I wake up during a dream I can usually go back to sleep and finish the story.
I get on Twitter, one of my routines during the day, if I’m home is, I wake up, get a cup of coffee, turn on the Weather Channel and I’ll look at what people are saying to me on Twitter on my phone.
I’m big about washing my face before I go to bed, washing it when I wake up in the morning, getting good sleep and drinking a lot of water. Those are just easy things that you can do for your skin.
It’s the ultimate goal every day you wake up, to be happy. At the end of the week, you want to be happy. Happy in love, happy in work, happy in life, happy with yourself. It’s pretty simple.
It’s a lot harder to stick to my regime when I’m travelling, so when I’m home, I make sure that when I wake up in the morning, I drink one litre of water with lemon to cleanse my body from the inside, and then I’ll have a big jar of vegetable juice.
Sometimes in the middle of the night, I wake up with a song in my head, and I have to finish it so I can fall back asleep.
I have a bad history with resolutions! I don’t think I have kept up even one of them so far. Once, I promised to myself that I would wake up at 6 A.M. every day – it didn’t even last for a week.
I just need green. I need to wake up and see grass and squirrels. I don’t want to see skyscrapers.
Perseverance is a great element of success. If you only knock long enough and loud enough at the gate, you are sure to wake up somebody.
I’m not sure what the future holds but I do know that I’m going to be positive and not wake up feeling desperate. As my dad said ‘Nic, it is what it is, it’s not what it should have been, not what it could have been, it is what it is.’
I used to take Sharpies and draw on my pillowcases, and then go to sleep on them and wake up with red marker from the drool all on my face.
Fame freaks me out. Do you just wake up different? I don’t know how to scale it back if it gets too crazy.
I still wake up every day, so I’m winning.
On holiday, I don’t want any plans or structure. If I want to wake up at lunchtime or have breakfast for dinner, then I will.
I don’t sleep much. It takes me a long time to fall asleep. I’m a bit of an insomniac but, when I fall asleep, I don’t ever want to wake up.
I wake up some mornings and sit and have my coffee and look out at my beautiful garden, and I go, ‘Remember how good this is. Because you can lose it.’
I never get enough sleep, even when I travel. I wake up in the middle of the night, either with the help of my kids or because my mind is going. I wish I got eight hours a night, but it is more like an interrupted six or seven. The secret is to go to sleep well before midnight.
Deep non-REM sleep almost hits the save button on those recently acquired informational pieces so that when you wake up the next morning, you have remembering rather than forgetting.
Every morning when I wake up, I listen to ‘The Brian Lehrer Show’ on WNYC.
I don’t want to wake up and see my kids going off to college and wonder what happened.
If you ask me what I worry about every morning when I wake up, it’s that I don’t understand future mainstream Internet users’ habits.
I want a character to wake up one day and feel like, ‘I can face it’. That, to me, is happy. I want the characters to rescue themselves, though you use the relationships you have, to make you strong enough to be able to do that.
Today I choose life. Every morning when I wake up I can choose joy, happiness, negativity, pain… To feel the freedom that comes from being able to continue to make mistakes and choices – today I choose to feel life, not to deny my humanity but embrace it.
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.
People think we just wake up looking perfect, but it’s all about the hair and the make-up, staying in shape, and eating healthily.
Old people whimper, and cry, and belch, and make great hollow rumbling sounds at table; old people wake up in the middle of the night screaming, and find out they haven’t even been asleep; and when old people are asleep, they try to wake up, and they can’t… not for the longest time.
I literally think that if you’re in this business, it has to be the only thing you can and want to do, because it’s so hard. You have to be fully committed – and partially insane – to wake up every morning and be like, ‘I’m an actor.’
My sister could fall asleep at the drop of a hat. She would fall asleep on the train. Me, I never slept. Still. I have a hard time sleeping. But I used to admire her ability to wake up late.
I wake up laughing. Yes, I wake up in the morning and there I am just laughing my head off.
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 nearly died three times in 2008, and when you go through those experiences, you realize that you’re blessed every day that you wake up. My world changed, my life changed, and with the help of my wife Jane, I was able to survive.
With the kids around, this is a different world to me. I spend a lot of time with them till they go to their playschool. I wake up early, have breakfast with them. I come back from work and am with them again till they go to bed by 10 P.M. Touch wood, this is what I wanted always.
I wake up every morning, and I go to ballet class no matter what’s going on the night before. That’s my priority, and that’s what makes me feel sane and not removed from the realities of my world.
We really wake up every day trying to build businesses. That is the goal of private equity. It’s a misnomer out there that private equity profits by shrinking companies. In fact, it’s just the opposite. Private equity creates value by growing great companies.
We’ve all heard stories of lottery winners, rock stars, heirs and heiresses, and professional athletes becoming millionaire morons who wake up rich but are broke by nightfall.
I don’t want to wake up and be bored. That’s probably my greatest fear is to have nothing to do. What better job is there than to play quarterback for an NFL team, and certainly one that I’ve been on for a long time and had success with? I don’t plan on giving it up any time soon.
When I went to bed as a child, I was told, ‘You don’t know where you’ll wake up.’ When I ran in the garden, I was told that running was bad for the heart. Everything had its sinister aspect – milk shrinks the stomach, lemon thins the blood.
I can act like a boy as much as I want, but when I wake up in the morning, I’m still a woman.
I wake up every morning at, like, seven or eight because I think that there’s a bad story about me, and I have to check. My worst fear is waking up and finding something bad about me on the Internet.
I grew up in a family that always believed in God. And I feel like, every morning when you wake up, you have to thank Him just for another day. I do it every day.
I always wanted to be in this role, as a songwriter. In the Pumpkins, it was always impossible because Corgan would wake up and write five songs. He was so prolific, there wasn’t a lot of room for anyone else.
When I paint, I seriously consider the public presence of a person – the surface facade. I am less concerned with how people look when they wake up or how they act at home. A person’s public presence reflects his own efforts at image development.
I think glamour all the time. I wake up in the morning and I’m already thinking glamour.
