There is comfort in routine. — © John Steinbeck
There is comfort in routine.
I can't have a daily routine. I feel really overwhelmed a lot of the time. I don't take much comfort in routine, but if I don't start, I could really get eaten alive by my industry.

By making the start of the sequence automatic, they replace doubt and fear with comfort and routine.

I think 'Trial & Retribution' as a brand can go on forever. Its joy is that it has, to an extent, a formula, which gives a comfort routine for viewers. But we allow our directors total autarchy in putting their personalities on their stories.

Children are meant to understand compassion and comfort because they have received compassion and comfort - and this should be in the family setting. A family should be a place where comfort is experienced and understood, so that the people are prepared to give comfort to others.
I think not having a routine is what keeps me centered. I only have a routine when I am working.
Out of routine comes inspiration. That's the idea, anyway. To grasp what's exceptional, you first have to know what's routine.
One travels to run away from routine, that dreadful routine that kills all imagination and all our capacity for enthusiasm.
Routine is a declivity down which many governments slide, and routine says that freedom of the press is dangerous.
The routine is as much a part of the creative process as the lightening bold of inspiration, maybe more. And this routine is available to everyone.
If you ever have a mistake, you try to just kind of forget about it because if you carry that with you for the rest of the routine, then the rest of your routine might not go as planned. So you just kind of shake it off, and you just continue your routine like you didn't fall.
