Hours Quotes

I’ve always been fascinated and stared at maps for hours as a kid. I’ve especially been most intrigued by the uninhabited or lonelier places on the planet. Like Greenland, for instance, or just recently flying over Alaska and a chain of icy, mountainous islands, uninhabited Picture Quote #1

We decided to have the baby at home because we wanted it to be a natural birth, and it turns out that it was 30 hours of natural. Eight hours of pushing - that’s the part that men don’t understand. Women go, ‘Oh, dear, oh, dear God, eight hours of pushing?’ And the men are like, ‘Okay, eight hours of pushing.’ Picture Quote #1

I tried to bake a cake for my mother’s birthday - it took me four hours. It was terrible, and I cried for three days Picture Quote #1

While the old spiritual ‘Slavery Chain Done Broke at Last’ was sung by blacks in the hours following the Appomattox surrender, racism sadly continues to be a crippling national scourge Picture Quote #1

I don’t care whether a role is 10 minutes long or two hours. And I don’t care whether my name is up there on top, either. Matter of fact, I’d rather have someone else get top billing; then if the picture bombs, he gets the blame, not me Picture Quote #1

Well with girls I don’t get no respect. I had a blind date. I waited two hours on the corner. A girl walked by. I said Are you Louise? She said, Are you Rodney? I said, Yeah. She said, I’m not Louise Picture Quote #1

I love to fish. You can go hours without anything happening, and all of a sudden a big blue marlin comes into the spread and it’s cockpit chaos. My dream is to catch a grander, a 1,000 pounder Picture Quote #1

My father worked in the Post Office. A lot of double shifts. All his friends were in the same situation - truck drivers, taxi cab drivers, grocery clerks. Blue collar guys punching the clock and working long, hard hours. The thought that sustained them was the one at the center of the American dream Picture Quote #1

One night, I lay awake for hours, just terrified. When the dawn finally came up - the comfortable blue sky, the familiar world returning - I could think of no other way to express my relief than through poetry. I made a decision there and then that it was what I wanted to do. Every time I pulled a wishbone, it was what I asked for Picture Quote #1

High school is very intense for everyone. But at a boarding school, because you’re there 24 hours a day, everything gets magnified Picture Quote #1

I want to get my eight hours and be able to eat good meals and not be sluggish or anything like that. My body is my temple, and I’ve always thought that Picture Quote #1

Our culture constantly inundates us with new information, and yet our brains capture so little of it. I can spend half a dozen hours reading a book and then have only a foggy notion of what it was about Picture Quote #1

The book [ One Thousand Gifts] took just over a year to write, on the fringe hours, early and late, around home educating 6 kids and farming and blogging Picture Quote #1

I’m a fan of meeting readers face to face, at reader events, where we’re able to sit down and take some time to talk. Too often, at regular book signings, I meet readers who have traveled six or eight hours to see me, and I’m unable to spend more than a few short minutes chatting with them as I sign books Picture Quote #1

Probably the TV show I’ve watched the most is ‘How It’s Made’ on the History Channel. I could watch 24 hours of ‘How It’s Made’ and never get bored. Or ‘Dirty Jobs’ - that’s even better! Picture Quote #1

The two hours onstage is great. But I can only play a show and then take a night off. I have to sing for two hours, and then I’ve gotta rest it for a night. So it’s the other 46 hours that are just boring as heck Picture Quote #1

People will work eight hours a day for pay, 10 hours a day for a good boss, and 24 hours a day for a good cause! Picture Quote #1

Coffee has ... expand[ed] humanity’s working-day from twelve to a potential twenty-four hours. The tempo, the complexity, the tension of modern life, call for something that can perform the miracle of stimulating brain activity, without evil, habit-forming after-effects Picture Quote #1

I’m not ashamed to say I love television. I put the TV on, and my brain switches off, and I just sit there for a few hours Picture Quote #1

For an impression, I just find that I can do a lot of the people I love without much research, because I’ve already watched hours and hours of them on video and it seeped into my brain while I wasn’t thinking about it Picture Quote #1

I’ve been thinking about the record since I reached the fifty plateau. But you think about it and then you let it go because you can’t waste many brain cells on hours thinking about it Picture Quote #1

Even when I wasn’t doing much ‘science for the public’ stuff, I found that four or five hours of intense work in physics was all my brain could take on a given day Picture Quote #1

Sometimes I don’t even pull my shoes off for six weeks at a time, except, you know, just to take a shower. I just take breaks between 24 hours a day, just a break now and then, it don’t take me long to rest; maybe 20 to30 minutes sometime, or maybe an hour Picture Quote #1

In a shooting day in the U.K., every few hours, everyone takes a bit of a tea break - not coffee, but a tea break. They bring out these little finger sandwiches with the crust cut off. Everyone sits around for a few minutes, with their pinkies in the air, drinking. It’s so cultured Picture Quote #1

MURRY: Resolutions are a complete waste of time. They’re just this meaningless ritual, empty promises we make and break within hours of each other Picture Quote #1

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will make me go in a corner and cry by myself for hours Picture Quote #1

Time dissolves in summer anyway: days are long, weekends longer. Hours get all thin and watery when you are lost in the book you’d never otherwise have time to read. Senses are sharper - something about the moist air and bright light and fruit in season - and so memories stir and startle Picture Quote #1

Acting is a tough, difficult job with long unsociable hours, although it can be a brilliant job, too. I don’t want to complain too much, as nurses, farmers and teachers are out working long hours Picture Quote #1
