Waking up every day and coming to the ballpark and playing baseball ... that's a good feeling.
Jason Heyward
Image
Waking your kids up for school the first day after a break is almost as much fun as birthing them was.
Jenny McCarthy
Image
Waking, after all, was an almost natal state. You surfaced without history, then spent the blinks and yawns reassembling your past, shuffling the shards into chronological order before fortifying yourself for the present.
Dennis Lehane
Image
Waking up begins with saying am and now. That which has awoken then lies for a while staring up at the ceiling and down into itself until it has recognized I, and therefrom deduced I am, I am now. Here comes next, and is at least negatively reassuring because here, this morning, is where it has expected to find itself: what’s called at home.
Christopher Isherwood
Image
Waking love suffereth no sleepe: Say, that raging love dothe appall the weake stomacke: Say, that lamenting love marreth the musicall.
Edmund Spenser
Image
Waking up to you is like... presents on Christmas morning. His mouth curved. For your convenience, I'm already unwrapped. Batteries not required.
Sylvia Day
Image
Waking up is seeing yourself just as you are, not as you would like to be nor as you are afraid you might be.
Paul Lowe
Image
Waking up each morning to a hysterical alarm clock on the bedside table.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Waking up from a dream of violence is much the same as waking up from a dream of love. You must go on living your life.
Wendell Berry
Image
Waking up in the morning isn't a choice, you know.
Gary Kraftsow
Image
Waking up to who you are requires letting go of who you imagine yourself to be
Alan Watts
Image
Waking up with a bad head in the morning is difficult sometimes.
Caroline Corr
Image
Waking was the most reliable part of a dream, as built into dreams as death is to life. You dream, you wake: you live, you die.
Alex Garland
Image
Waking up early on Saturday gives me an edge in finishing my work with a very relaxed state of mind. There is a feeling of time pressure on weekdays that aren’t there on weekends. If I wake up early in the morning before anybody else, I can plan the day or at least my activities with relaxed mind.
Oprah Winfrey
Image
I prefer to write first drafts as soon as possible after waking, so that the oneiric inscape is still present to me.
Will Self
Image
Each of our lives is a part of the lengthy process of the universe gradually waking up and becoming aware of itself.
Thomas Nagel
Image
[L]et light Rise from the chambers of the east, and bring The honey'd dew that cometh on waking day. O radiant morning.
William Blake
Image
Productivity-the amount of output delivered per hour of work in the economy-is often viewed as the engine of progress in modern capitalist economies. Output is everything. Time is money. The quest for increased productivity occupies reams of academic literature and haunts the waking hours of C.E.O.s and finance ministers.
Tim Jackson
Image
Given that the dreaming brain must perform these remarkable contortions - creating a world, living in it, responding to it, and then carefully blocking all the responses in a manner that does not cross the threshold of awareness - it is no wonder that this dreaming brain seems to be more active than the waking brain.
William C. Dement
Image
We are still in the position of waking up and having a choice. Do I make the world better today somehow, or do I not bother?
Tom Hanks
Image
You're looking, sir, at a very dull survivor of a very gaudy life. Crippled, paralyzed in both legs. Very little I can eat, and my sleep is so near waking that it's hardly worth the name. I seem to exist largely on heat, like a newborn spider.
William Faulkner
Image
I feel there's a power in theatre, but it's an indirect power. It's like the relationship of the sleeper to the unconscious. You discover things you can't afford to countenance in waking life. You can forget them, remember them a day later or not have any idea what they are about.
Tony Kushner
Image
Naps are essential to my process. Not dreams, but that state adjacent to sleep, the mind on waking.
William Gibson
Image
A good dream was something you clung to until the last moment before waking.
