First lines.Franz Kafka
I awoke one morning and found myself famous.
Lord Byron
I awoke this morning with devout thanksgiving for my friends, the old and the new.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
There was no despondency when she fell asleep that night; nor was there hope when she awoke in the morning.
Kate Chopin
In 1909, he published a little book of some hundred pages, Europe's Optical Illusion, and he awoke one morning to find himself famous.
Norman Angell
How can we help loving best those who first gave us possession of ourselves? All the day long they were together: living as they did, they could not help being so; only parting at night for a few short hours to dream over the happy past day, and to meet again the next morning, the happier for their brief separation. It was a new life to him: what had often hung before him as a fairy vision — what he had longed for, but never found; and here, as if sent down from heaven, was what more than answered to his wildest dreams. Now for the first time he found himself loved for himself — slighted and neglected as he had been .... suddenly he was singled out by a fascinating woman, who made no secret of the pleasure his friendship gave her.
