"I never knew a man come to greatness or eminence who lay abed late in the morning." ― Jonathan Swift Topic(s): Morning More From Jonathan Swift "The best doctors in the world are Doctor Diet, Doctor Quiet, and Doctor Merryman." "I never saw, heard, nor read, that the clergy were beloved in any nation where Christianity was the religion of the country. Nothing can render them popular, but some degree of persecution." "Interest is the spur of the people, but glory that of great souls. Invention is the talent of youth, and judgment of age." More In Morning "And if small businesspeople say they made it on their own, all they are saying is that nobody else worked seven days a week in their place. Nobody showed up in their place to open the door at five in the morning. Nobody did their thinking, and worrying, and sweating for them."― Paul Ryan "New Orleans life is such a night life. The thing that comes up very often is that our day essentially doesn’t start until midnight or 2 in the morning."― Robert Asprin "I have come to understand and appreciate writers much more recently since I started working on a book last fall. Before that, I thought golf writers got up every morning, played a round of golf, had lunch, showed up for our last three holes and then went to dinner."― Phil Mickelson
