Quotes about Early rising
Do not shorten the morning by getting up late; look upon it as the quintessence of life, and to a certain extent sacred.
- Arthur Schopenhauer
I have, all my life long, been lying till noon; yet I tell all young men, and tell them with great sincerity, that nobody who does not rise early will ever do any good.
- Samuel Johnson
The discipline to rise early is not as difficult as the discipline of going to bed. This did not used to be so. Before electricity and radio and television and the Internet, going to bed soon after dark was not so difficult. There was not much to do.

Therefore, the battle against weariness, which makes us drowsy as soon as we open our Bible in the morning, has to be fought in the evening, not just in the morning.
- John Piper

- F Scott Fitzgerald

Whether I retire to bed early or late, I rise with the sun.
- Thomas Jefferson
