I'm actually one of those people who get up energetic in the morning.

But I try to steal other moments. Sometimes I get up very early in the morning and enjoy a quiet house and cup of tea before the craziness begins. Other times I'll take a quick walk on the beach. You can find peace in a few minutes.

I pray every night before I go to sleep and every morning when I wake up.

I've been keeping a diary for thirty-three years and write in it every morning. Most of it's just whining but every so often there'll be something I can use later: a joke a description a quote. It's an invaluable aid when it comes to winning arguments. 'That's not what you said on February 3 1996 ' I'll say to someone.

It's a privilege to serve the poor to be servants of noble Africans but I better belong in the rehearsal room or in the studio with my band. That's where I want to be and I still wake up in the morning with melodies in my head.

This morning I went to wipe my hands on a tea towel and while I was using it it seemed like it felt a bit light. I unfolded it and realized my daughter had cut little bits out of it to make frocks for her dolls!

It didn't matter what you look like. You don't have to get up at 5:30 in the morning and there's a lot to be said for that. Corpse Bride can just play all my parts from now on and I'll just do the voice.

As far as I'm concerned the entire reason for becoming a writer is not having to get up in the morning.

Acting is invigorating. But I don't analyse it too much. It's like a dog smelling where it's going to do its toilet in the morning.

Your computer needn't be the first thing your see in the morning and the last thing you see at night.

I'm not an employee who goes to the office every morning at the same time. Then vacations are needed.

Making love in the morning got me through morning sickness. I found I could be happy and throw up at the same time.

I usually decide what to wear in the morning but sometimes I'll have a favorite coat or sweater or shoes and I'll wear them everyday for a week!

You know I looked at my face in the mirror this morning and I like being old. My face has more content and when I train in the gym now I am not training to be strong or handsome - just better than I was yesterday. These days the race is just against myself.

Most of the time I spend when I get up in the morning is trying to figure out what is going to happen.

In the morning I practice 15 minutes of yoga.

I draw flowers every day and send them to my friends so they get fresh blooms every morning.
