Desire Quotes

When I first started painting candyland imagery, I was looking for the best possible metaphor for everything that is pleasure, desire and insatiability Picture Quote #1

Every teenager feels a wanting, a desire for something more, to be heard, to be seen Picture Quote #1

I don’t have the desire to just keep every record and put it out. That’s not what I do. I make records for people; that’s why I just continue to be consistent, where a lot of the other top writers, they kind of fell off because they started focusing on their own careers as artists. That’s not where my head is at Picture Quote #1

Every swindle is driven by a desire for easy money; it’s the one thing the swindler and the swindled have in common Picture Quote #1

Teams are made up of a lot of components. They’re made up of hunger, they’re made up of desire, they’re made up of chemistry, and they’re made up of emotion Picture Quote #1

Theaters are always going to be around, and doing fine. With computers and technology, we’re becoming more and more secluded from each other. And the movie theater is one of the last places where we can still gather and experience something together. I don’t think the desire for that magic will ever go away Picture Quote #1

I desire to leave to the men that come after me a remembrance of me in good works Picture Quote #1

One should want only one thing and want it constantly. Then one is sure of getting it. But I desire everything, and consequently get nothing Picture Quote #1

If you desire to know or learn anything to your advantage, then take delight in being unknown and unregarded. A true understanding and humble estimate of oneself is the highest and most valuable of all lessons Picture Quote #1

Remember that you will derive strength by reflecting that the saints yearn for you to join their ranks; desire to see you fight bravely, and that you behave like true knights in your encounters with the same adversities which they had to conquer, and that breathtaking joy is theirs and your eternal reward for having endured a few years of temporal pain. Every drop of earthly bitterness will be changed into an ocean of heavenly sweetness Picture Quote #1

In every one of us there are two ruling and directing principles, whose guidance we follow wherever they may lead; the one being an innate desire of pleasure; the other, an acquired judgment which aspires after excellence Picture Quote #1

The end of nature sours all my material pleasures. The prospect of living in a genetically engineered world sickens me. And yet it is toward such a world that our belief in endless material advancement hurries us. As long as that desire drives us, here is no way to set limits Picture Quote #1

The soul’s first adventure is the fight between two ideas: the wish to return to earth in a human form, and the desire to feel the freedom of having no form Picture Quote #1

Everyone experiences desire. Desire is not bad. There is no good or bad from the point of view of karma. There is only structured reaction Picture Quote #1

Good karma leads to rebirth also. The desire for higher states of mind is a desire. When you are fixated on higher states of mind, you don’t become enlightened Picture Quote #1

All action is generated by desire. It is the desire to live that causes us to reincarnate Picture Quote #1

I desire that your conjectures should not reach beyond your creative will. Could you create a god? Then do not speak to me of any gods Picture Quote #1

The desire of reward is one of the strongest incentives of human conduct;... the best security for the fidelity of mankind is to make their interest coincide with their duty Picture Quote #1

As children, we come into the world with a natural desire to both speak and draw. Society makes sure that we learn language properly, right from the beginning, but art is treated as a gift of innate genius, something we either have or don’t Picture Quote #1

A man makes inferiors his superiors by heat; self control is the rule. Anger is an uncontrollable feeling that betrays what you are when you are not yourself. Anger is that powerful internal force that blows out the light of reason. Know this to be the enemy: it is anger, born of desire Picture Quote #1

The readiness to praise others indicates a desire for excellence and perhaps an ability to realize it Picture Quote #1

The less satisfaction we derive from being ourselves, the greater is our desire to be like others Picture Quote #1

The chief burden of the frustrated is the consciousness of a blemished, ineffectual self, and their chief desire is to slough off the unwanted self and begin a new life. They try to realize this desire either by finding a new identity or by blurring and camouflaging their individual distinctness; and both these ends are reached by imitation Picture Quote #1

Proselytizing is more a passionate search for something not yet found than a desire to bestow upon the world something we already have. It is a search for a final and irrefutable demonstration that our absolute truth is indeed the one and only truth. The proselytizing fanatic strengthens his own faith by converting others Picture Quote #1

No, I have no desire for riches. Honest poverty and a conscience, torpid through virtuous inaction, are more to me than corner lots and praise Picture Quote #1

All genuine ideals have one thing in common: they express the desire for something which is not yet accomplished but which is desirable for the purpose of the growth and happiness of the individual Picture Quote #1

All human beings have an innate desire to overcome suffering, to find happiness. Training the mind to think differently, through meditation, is one important way to avoid suffering and be happy Picture Quote #1

It is better decoration when, in painting, some monstrosity is introduced for variety and a relaxation of the senses and to attract the attention of mortal eyes, which at times desire to see that which they have never seen Picture Quote #1

It’s the artist’s duty to have an artist’s life, somehow to obtain time and freedom and then to muster the desire and discipline to make good work out of the life, whether that goodness is in the world’s aesthetics, its radicalism, its candor, its singularity, or its universality Picture Quote #1

I sometimes begin a drawing with no preconceived problem to solve, with only the desire to use pencil on paper... but as my eye takes in what is so produced, a point arrives where some idea crystallizes, and then a control and ordering begins to take place Picture Quote #1
