I’m no different from anybody else. If I don’t have a card, I can’t check out these books.
Usually I go to bed around midnight and wake up around 6, unless I have to do TV, in which case I get up at 5. I grab my phone, check my email, check Twitter. I have push alerts for the president and some other reporters.

Keeping my emotions in check translates to me playing a lot better.
Actively deciding to give to causes that move you deeply is far more fulfilling than the momentary gratification derived from signing a check and mailing it to a nonprofit about which you know little more than what’s on the brochure they sent you.
With domestic adoption, you get a form, you fill it out, and there are these boxes: African-American, African-American and Hispanic, and you check the boxes that you’re comfortable with. Race is completely open in that regard.
I don’t care what party you belong to or what your background is. If you believe we are headed in the wrong direction, and believe there needs to be a check and balance on the President and Congress, then join my campaign.
A state of war is not a blank check… when it comes to the rights of the Nation’s citizens.

If the Republicans get control back of the United States Senate, we will no longer have a check and balance on the White House, on the Republican Congress.
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.
The tour life definitely puts strains on your body, not just because of the dancing but because of the fact that you are traveling into the wee hours of the day, getting up early, going to sound check – just the grueling process of it all.

I always joke that my kids’ favorite holiday is Father’s Day. They love the way I celebrate the occasion by writing each of them a thank-you letter and a generous check. It’s my way of letting them know how much I appreciate the great pleasure and privilege of being their dad.
I’m so organised. I never screw up. I’ve done it maybe twice before. I check my calendar seven times a day.
The next time you check your moves in the mirror and reflect on how special you are, consider that somewhere in this universe or in another parallel universe, your double might be doing the same. This would be the ultimate Copernican Revolution. Not only are we not special, we could be infinitely ordinary.
What I like about land is I can drive out and check on it. It doesn’t go anywhere. It’s hard to steal land.
I try and wake up relatively early. I listen to some music and check Twitter. I also make sure I weigh myself and check how long I slept. I do that because knowing that data seems better than not knowing it.
Anytime a member of Congress wants to travel abroad – which we do from time to time as part of our official duties – we are required to check with the House Committee on Ethics as to whether the trip follows the ethics rules by which federally elected officials are bound. Not so with Supreme Court justices.

Check out my pictures. I’m fat. You know what I mean? But I love it. I love it. I’m a fat dude.
I was a mailman walking in the snow six days a week, 12-hour days. Every two weeks, I’d get a check for $228.
Most Sagittariuses start off really reserved. You gotta check people out, see what they’re about, and then once we decide you’re cool, then that’s when we become super fun and really outgoing. But first we gotta make sure everybody’s cool.
Like most guys, I’ve always liked watches. I can always check the time on my phone, but having a watch is so much better.
When I got to jail, it was a blessing in disguise because it made me reevaluate and check who I am as a person.
I live in a beautiful part of British Columbia, and I run through the rainforest. I do have to look over my shoulder to check for a cougar or a wolf though, so sometimes it’s not the most relaxing.
There’s so much that I like about Pittsburgh, actually. The cultural district and museums are wonderful, and I encourage everyone to check them out. And the food is excellent, too!
In June 2010, I moved out of my apartment and I have been mostly homeless ever since, off and on. I just live in Airbnb apartments and I check in every week in different homes in San Francisco.
I wouldn’t want to go out six nights a week and watch somebody’s reserves playing to check out a footballer to see if we’re going to buy him.
My first killer amp was a Sunn Beta Lead. It was solid-state, but that Sunn was incredibly loud. I used to say to my friends, ‘Hey, check it out. It’s only on two.’
So I think it’s important to just keep in mind that the work doesn’t end when the scene ends. You want to check on someone to make sure everyone’s good, and also create an environment where everyone is rooting for one another.
I always check my harness before I do a stunt; I test-drive the cars I have to race or explode; I’m present at all pyrotechnical rehearsals; and I walk through everything step-by-step. No man should put their life in someone else’s hands unless they have covered their own safety from all angles.
If you want me to sing this Christmas song with the feeling and the meaning, you better see if you can locate that check.
Sometimes when things are way too big and I can’t control it, I do sort of a weird thing where I kind of check out a little bit. It’s all about self-preservation for me.
I don’t believe in amnesty… What I have proposed is that we would come forth with a program that allows individuals to come forward and to plead guilty… They would have to pay a fine; they would have to go through a background check – some say learn English – and they would get learned legal status.
I take my mobile phone and iPad wherever I go. I like to switch off when I’m on holiday, but I always check emails in case someone at home is trying to get hold of me.
One of the duties of fortitude is to keep the weak from receiving injury; another, to check the wrong motions of our own souls; a third, both to disregard humiliations, and to do what is right with an even mind. All these clearly ought to be fulfilled by all Christians, and especially by the clergy.
‘Last Man On Earth,’ I have to say, is a love for me. I mean, a true passion. To people who haven’t watched it or who’ve watched a little and thought, ‘Ah, I don’t know where this is going,’ or whatever, I urge them to check it out again.
I have felt that there’s a lot of receptiveness to female stories now. I think some of it has a little bit – a lot of it is economically driven and driven by, just, kind of studios wanting to check that box because now they know they have a woman problem that they need to solve.
I have to prioritize and learn how to sometimes say ‘no,’ even when there might be a good opportunity. That means turning down a check or a potential relationship, or sometimes letting someone down who you are close with.

Go out there and get rich. Get so obnoxiously rich that when that tax bill comes, your first thought will be to choke on how big a check you have to write.
Instead of just being the person that’s like: ‘Gosh, that’s cool that people are doing stuff and good luck. Do you need me to write a check? I can do that,’ I’ve always just been very hands-on.
‘I’m Broken’ was a sound check riff.
What I love about the TED is that it’s not, ‘Hey, take this check and enjoy.’ It’s, ‘Do something with this, and we’ll help you.’ I think that’s the most beautiful prize I’ve ever heard of.
I think of myself as a mum who finds the time to go to work. I have to check myself for baby sick before I walk out of the house in the morning. I am really a mum… I know I am a great mother.
A novel is too much of a commitment. I tend to peruse Twitter – I check to see if I had any mentions and read the latest messages.
My typical morning involves some time on the treadmill, but obviously I skip that a lot. Mostly, I wake up, check my email, then get to work on the various interviews and questions and phone calls that come with being an author.
And check this out: If every American had one meat-free day per week, it would be the same as taking eight million cars off American roads in a year.
We’re all amateur investigators. We scan bookshelves, we ogle trinkets left out in the open, we calculate the cost of furniture and study the photographs on display; sometimes we even check out the medicine cabinet.
