People want to imagine I spend every night going to premieres and putting on frocks and getting into limos, and yet I do that maybe twice a year, if that.
Premiering a new opera is probably one of the hardest things in the world to do, and opening nights of any opera are always pretty stressful.
In high school, my prom date fooled around with another guy - on prom night!
Some thoughts are too angry to sleep. They lie awake all night and become obsessions.
Last night I dreamt that somebody loved me. No hope, no harm; just another false alarm
There's always some promoter having an '80s night, saying, We'll supply the band. All you can drink.
No matter how hard you try, after the Day there will always be a Night...
Every night I go over what I did in the day, in ethical or moral terms. Have I treated people properly? Did I tell the truth?
When they talk of ghosts of the dead who wander in the night with things still undone in life, they approximate my subjective experience of this life.
I've done so much theater, and yet I never had an experience like 'The Normal Heart.' We could feel the reaction of the audience every night. It was visceral.
It is a common experience that a problem difficult at night is resolved in the morning after the committee of sleep has worked on it.
You know you poor when you eatin' breakfast food late. You fryin' toast? At nine o'clock at night? With bacon? You're broke.
I don't like to waste anything. Any food left over from the night before is always eaten the next day.
I never thought I'd be making a living off of acting - it's still kind of a shock for my family and friends to see my face on TV every Wednesday night.
'Night of the Comet' established me as a strong woman. And let's face it, this business is very surface and one dimensional - so it's easy to get typecast.
Kids are a huge sacrifice; they change everything - but I'm ready to work for things of greater importance than going out to meet someone for dinner at 10 o'clock at night.
No one's raising children any more. To love a child, you've got to work for it. You have to change its diapers and feed it at night!
I had a paper round and every night I would put the dinner on before Mum came home from work. I was capable because I had to be.
My friends tell me I'm the most boring celebrity they know! A typical night for me is at home in California or watching movies in my pyjamas.
Stand-up is like a movie every night. You write it, direct it, produce it, the audience votes, and you go home. There's nothing more satisfying.
I don't usually have time for TV. When I get home at night, I just want to fall asleep.
