Mark Twain — "I am an early riser; I get up at 5 o'clock in the morning. And I work until 8 o'…"

I am an early riser; I get up at 5 o'clock in the morning. And I work until 8 o'clock. And then I take my breakfast. And then I work until noon. And then I take my lunch. And then I work until 5 o'clock. And then I take my dinner. And then I work until 8 o'clock. And then I go to bed. And then I get up at 5 o'clock in the morning. And then I work until 8 o'clock. And then I take my breakfast. And then I work until noon. And then I take my lunch. And then I work until 5 o'clock. And then I take my dinner. And then I work until 8 o'clock. And then I go to bed.
