The Dalai Lama on Meditation

I have the greatest respect for the Dalai Lama and am always looking for his holinesses quotes and comments. Today I discovered the following on viewonbuddhism.org :-

The Dalia Lama was asked:

Why is it better to meditate in the morning?

Dalai Lama:- "There are two main reasons. Physically, in the early morning - once you are used to it - all the nerve centres are fresh and this is beneficial. Also there is a difference just in terms of the time. Further, if you have slept well, you are more fresh and alert in the morning; this we can see in our own experience. At night I reach a point where I cannot think properly; however after sleeping and the waking in the early morning, that thing, which yesterday I could not properly think through, automatically appears more clearly. This shows that mental power is much sharper in the morning."
