Friday night is our date night. We really carve out time for each other.

~By Kenzaburo Oe ~
And, in nineteen seventy two Olympic Games I wasn't really going to be a star, and overnight I became a star.

~By Betty Grable ~
And on 25 January of each year and for many days before it and after it there is not an hour in the day or night when a Burns Supper is not taking place somewhere on this earth.
~By Len G. Murray ~
Through the years, I have so many wonderful memories of playing with the Red Wings: winning four Stanley Cups, scoring big goals, going into battle every night side by side with my teammates, playing with every ounce of effort I could muster.
~By Ted Lindsay ~
I'm comfortable with my femininity, and I don't try to change what I look like just because I'm reporting on football at the end of the night.
~By Lisa Guerrero ~

~By David Crane ~
I still sweat bullets if I go on The Tonight Show, but I tell myself, You can either have fun tonight or you can be shy and miserable. You ask my friends or anyone I work with now - nobody would say I was shy.
~By Lara Flynn Boyle ~
There are nights when you can feel stale because you've fallen into a pattern by touring too much, but it's easy to get out of it by deliberately getting in trouble and playing yourself into a corner to then see if you can get out of it.
~By Leo Kottke ~
In my opinion, what changed the situation eventually - and, of course, it took a lot of time to change it, things like that don't change in a week or a fortnight - was the new educational system.
~By John Hume ~
Impossible to spend sleepless nights and accomplish anything: if, in my youth, my parents had not financed my insomnias, I should surely have killed myself.
~By Emile M. Cioran ~
Hard Day's Night was one of those great films that will never happen again to anyone in their lifetime. UA were in profit before we'd even finished shooting - The advance sales on the album - the film was out before the album was out was more than it cost UA to make the film.
~By Richard Lester ~
After Nashville sushi and a long debate on Bob Dylan, we went into Woodland Studios at 10 pm that night for a look around, and jammed for 5 hours solid.

~By Benjamin Harrison ~
Though I know he loves me, tonight my heart is sad; his kiss was not so wonderful as all the dreams I had.
~By Sara Teasdale ~
Hemingway is terribly limited. His technique is good for short stories, for people who meet once in a bar very late at night, but do not enter into relations. But not for the novel.
~By W. H. Auden ~
I like to work at night.
~By Terry Southern ~
I always go with the story and character and if those are good and if the setting is something that's scary (horror films seem to always take place at night and the weather's always bad) then I might be interested.
~By David Naughton ~
Even in Los Angeles, where we lived, when we would date somebody or go out with them, if we went out with somebody else the next night, we often found that women were banging on our windows while we were bedded down with other women!
~By Burt Ward ~
It was a perfect night for a train. The occasional whistle told Louis of all the farewells he had ever known.

The family is a court of justice which never shuts down for night or day.
~By Malcolm De Chazal ~
I pretty much live about 10 minutes from my office. I have two kids, and I have about 8 projects that I'm working on, so I basically just get up and go to work, and go home every night and play with my kids, so I don't really know.
~By Bob Odenkirk ~
It takes 20 years to make an overnight success.
~By Eddie Cantor ~
The joke I wanted to put into one of the promos for this new season, was to have a guy come up to me and say, Hey! Tony! I love your show, I've watched you every night since you started! And then I'd say, Ah! You're the one!
~By Tony Danza ~
Our days and nights have sorrows woven with delights.
~By Francois de Malherbe ~
The time to read is any time: no apparatus, no appointment of time and place, is necessary. It is the only art which can be practiced at any hour of the day or night, whenever the time and inclination comes, that is your time for reading; in joy or sorrow, health or illness.
~By Holbrook Jackson ~
I worked night and day for twelve years to prevent the war, but I could not. The North was mad and blind, would not let us govern ourselves, and so the war came.
~By Jefferson Davis ~
My kids are more precious to me than anything. I'm with them all day, and I write all night.
~By Danielle Steel ~
If war comes upon us, it will come as a thief in the night.
~By Eamon de Valera ~
Al Jazeera aired a new tape of Osama bin Laden. It was the usual stuff, he called Bush evil, the Great Satan, called him a war monger. Basically, the same thing you heard at last night's Democratic debate.
~By Jay Leno ~
The abduction of a child is a tragedy. No one can fully understand or appreciate what a parent goes through at such a time, unless they have faced a similar tragedy. Every parent responds differently. Each parent copes with this nightmare in the best way he or she knows how.
~By John Walsh ~
My candle burns at both ends; it will not last the night; but ah, my foes, and oh, my friends - it gives a lovely light!
~By Edna St. Vincent Millay ~
We should every night call ourselves to an account: what infirmity have I mastered today? what passions opposed? what temptation resisted? what virtue acquired? Our vices will abate of themselves if they be brought every day to the shrift.
~By Lucius Annaeus Seneca ~
Well, as you know, there are 24 hours in every day. And if that's not enough, you've always got the nights!

A career is wonderful, but you can't curl up with it on a cold night.
~By Marilyn Monroe ~
I think that people need to have the courage of their convictions and not be trying to fool people into thinking that they've changed overnight.
~By Chris Bell ~
You bet I arrived overnight. Over a few hundred nights in the Catskills, in vaudeville, in clubs and on Broadway.
~By Danny Kaye ~
Stood off and on during the night, determining not to come to anchor till morning, fearing to meet with shoals; continued our course in the morning; and as the island was found to be six or seven leagues distant, and the tide was against us, it was noon when we arrived there.
~By Christopher Columbus ~
Basically, I'm for anything that gets you through the night - be it prayer, tranquilizers or a bottle of Jack Daniels.
~By Frank Sinatra ~
I think A Midsummer Night's Dream would be terrific because of the transformations that occur. Or The Tempest, things like that. Extraordinary larger than life or supernatural element.

~By Frederick Forsyth ~
If you can handle a nightclub audience successfully, you can handle anything.
~By Judy Holliday ~
On a scale of the United States, the Hollywood influence on what comes out, that's not the majority views of across the country. What we read in Us Weekly or People magazine, or Entertainment Tonight, it's not what the majority of the country is thinking.
~By Kid Rock ~
The zeal, bravery, and good behavior of the officers and men on the night of June 30, and during July 1, was commendable in the extreme.
~By John Buford ~
I'll never forget that first night with the team. Going to the ballpark on the bus was the hardest 30 minutes of my life. I had to walk down that aisle between all the players. I really didn't know too much about the Detroit Tigers at that time.
~By Al Kaline ~
War is eternity jammed into frantic minutes that will fill a lifetime with dreams and nightmares.
~By John Cory ~
Happy Days, which we did for 11 years, we did with three cameras in front of a live audience. Very special. We had a party every Friday night. The boys, Ron, Henry, they grew up on that show.
~By Marion Ross ~
Directing is: you're overwhelmed the whole time. Your mind never stops. If you care about it. You wake up in the morning and you begin thinking about it and then you go to sleep at night and you're still thinking about it.
~By Campbell Scott ~
I loved doing Shakespeare. My two favorite roles, in fact, have been Viola in Twelfth Night and Helena in A Midsummer Night's Dream.
~By Blythe Danner ~
I mean, I guess I realized subconsciously that this is what I should be doing before I realized it, consciously. Verbally, I don't think I had committed to it, even though I was driving everywhere, every night, just trying to get on stage.
~By Todd Barry ~
I've loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.
~By Galileo Galilei ~

~By Jacqueline Susann ~
And much more am I sorrier for my good knights' loss than for the loss of my fair queen; for queens I might have enough, but such a fellowship of good knights shall never be together in no company.
~By Thomas Malory ~
The most terrifying thing I can think of is being alone - and I mean utterly alone, like no one else in the world alone - at night. That's the nucleus of the first story in my collection and it's also where the title came from for the book.
~By Paul Kane ~
It is the eve of St. George's Day. Do you not know that tonight, when the clock strikes midnight, all the evil things in the world will have full sway?
~By Bram Stoker ~
On the night before we were married, all of the anxiety in the world came down upon me.
~By John C. Hawkes ~
You never have to change anything you got up in the middle of the night to write.
~By Saul Bellow ~
I felt I had to share Idaho with my friend from New York because he'd shared New York with me, so I was going to share the beauty of nature with a man who went to museums and clubs late at night. But there was nothing to do where I lived at night.
~By Mariel Hemingway ~
Watching a peaceful death of a human being reminds us of a falling star; one of a million lights in a vast sky that flares up for a brief moment only to disappear into the endless night forever.
~By Elisabeth Kubler-Ross ~
I have no trouble with my enemies. I can take care of my enemies in a fight. But my friends, my goddamned friends, they're the ones who keep me walking the floor at nights!
~By Warren G. Harding ~
Build a man a fire and he'll be warm for the night. Set a man on fire and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
~By Terry Prachett ~
It's funny, I had dinner with my dear friend John Spencer last night and I'm not in the first episode, but he's at the beginning of it and he was telling me about it and I thought this sounds very hot because I think this is definitely the last year of West Wing.
~By Stockard Channing ~
When the whistle blew and the call stretched thin across the night, one had to believe that any journey could be sweet to the soul.
~By Charles Tennyson Turner ~
We're not like pop musicians who have to perform the same top ten tunes every night of a tour.
~By Oscar Peterson ~
I've always said that one night, I'm going to find myself in some field somewhere, I'm standing on grass, and it's raining, and I'm with the person I love, and I know I'm at the very point I've been dreaming of getting to.
~By Drew Barrymore ~
I don't mind being a permanent nightmare for the United States.

~By Philip Roth ~
I have played a boxer, a cowboy, a knight, a prince, an elf and a pirate. I am so glad to have done all of that already.
~By Orlando Bloom ~
I had no idea what to expect when we did Ladies' Night. I didn't think it was going to get nominated for a Grammy. I didn't know that we would have to perform on the MTV Awards show.
~By Angie Martinez ~
The name Air Supply sort of came from nowhere. I get a lot of my things in dreams and I just had a dream about it one night, and I woke up and said that's just got to be the name. That was in 1975.
~By Graham Russell ~
There is only one thing people like that is good for them; a good night's sleep.
~By Edgar Watson Howe ~
There's a lot of people out there who have seen us once somewhere in a pub or heard our songs late night on radio. We'd done four years of it before we'd even released a single. It's put us in good stead.
~By Dan Hawkins ~
For me, winning isn't something that happens suddenly on the field when the whistle blows and the crowds roar. Winning is something that builds physically and mentally every day that you train and every night that you dream.
~By Emmitt Smith ~
This is just what I have thought when I have seen slaves at work - they seem to go through the motions of labor without putting strength into them. They keep their powers in reserve for their own use at night, perhaps.
~By Frederick Law Olmsted ~
When a man knows he is to be hanged in a fortnight, it concentrates his mind wonderfully.
~By Samuel Johnson ~
I couldn't walk down any street in Britain without being laughed at. It was a nightmare. My children were devastated because their dad was a figure of ridicule.

~By Tea Leoni ~
The nearer the dawn the darker the night.
~By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow ~
On that road of the informer, it is always night. I cannot ever inform against anyone without feeling something die within me. I inform without pleasure, because it is necessary.
~By Whittaker Chambers ~
Blemishes are hid by night and every fault forgiven; darkness makes any woman fair.
~By Ovid ~
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.
~By Robert Asprin ~
I believe in everything until it's disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind. Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now?
~By John Lennon ~
Literature boils with the madcap careers of writers brought to the edge by the demands of living on their nerves, wringing out their memories and their nightmares to extract meaning, truth, beauty.
~By Herbert Gold ~
The preparatory education of candidates for knighthood was long and arduous.
~By Thomas Bulfinch ~
Marching thus at night, a battalion is doubly impressive. The silent monster is full of restrained power; resolute in its onward sweep, impervious to danger, it looks a menacing engine of destruction, steady to its goal, and certain of its mission.
~By Patrick MacGill ~
The thing is, playing with us, whoever was the left winger had to come to play every night because that's the way it was. Charlie came in and he just fit that role - big and strong around the net.
~By Marcel Dionne ~
