Wanted Quotes

All this time I’ve just wanted to be blonde, beautiful and 5 feet 2 inches tall Picture Quote #1

While other kids played with cars and toys, I listened to music all day. I wanted to sing it and learn it Picture Quote #1

I love music so much and that kind of takes away from the fact that I am missing out on some things. I have always known that I wanted to be a singer and I knew that meant sacrificing some things for my dream. When I am home I hang out with my friends and go to dances, so I try and partake in some of the activities that I miss out on Picture Quote #1

I decided I wanted out because it was killing me, and I couldnt see where to go with it that wouldnt be fatal Picture Quote #1

I actually wanted to be a doctor. But doing all those horrid rat dissections made me faint. I studied science till the 12th standard and later took up commerce. I was planning to do chartered accountancy, but fate had something else in store for me Picture Quote #1

I am a woman. I was devastated, and I felt that excluding me for the reason that they gave was unjust. I have never asked for any special consideration. I only wanted to compete Picture Quote #1

I believed that I wanted to be a poet, but deep down I wanted to be a poem Picture Quote #1

I went solo because I could do much better what I wanted to do. I didn’t have to ask or discuss things and ideas that are already shaped in my head Picture Quote #1

Like all who search for truth out of fear, I desperately wanted someone else to tell me exactly what to do Picture Quote #1

I went to university for a couple of years and I didn’t enjoy university. The studying and the accountancy, economics, I just hated that stuff. Now the irony is here I am lawyer, accountant, I do it all day every day and sit at a desk. So I’ve never ended up where I wanted to be in many ways. I always wanted to be a farmer Picture Quote #1

Things didn’t quite work out like we wanted them too, but... we still have you, and you still have us Picture Quote #1

All of my life I wanted be something. I guess now that I am, I don’t want to be Picture Quote #1

They all wanted to model for me because they knew I wouldn’t take advantage of them Picture Quote #1

Once I got started, I wanted the life of a writer so fiercely that nothing could stop me. I wanted the intensity, the sense of aliveness that came from writing fiction. I’m still that way. My life is worth living when I’ve completed a good paragraph Picture Quote #1

It’s a great feeling to be wanted but it’s more exciting to be inaccessible Picture Quote #1

If you saw me with my clothes off you’d see that my body is in great shape and ready to take on the world... I could snap my fingers and have any man I wanted, but I have too much respect for myself for that... People can look then wonder about the taste and the sensuous delights of the dish, but when it comes down to it they simply can’t afford such an expensive luxury Picture Quote #1

I should write a book. I’ve always wanted to write a book. I should write a book about kids who see dead people Picture Quote #1

I wanted to clear up the slum of legs… I wanted to make the chair all one thing again Picture Quote #1

I’ve been on the side where you have nothing, and now I’m on the side where anything I want is there for me. When I didn’t have the means to do whatever I wanted to do, I still had peace Picture Quote #1

Women had to work like slaves in the art world, but a lot of men got to the top through their charm. And it hurt them. To be young and pretty didn’t help a woman in the art world, because the social scene, and the buying scene, was in the hands of women – women who had money. They wanted male artists who would come alone and be their charming guests. Rothko could be very charming. It was a court. And the artist buffoons came to the court to entertain, to charm. Now it has changed, now the younger men are in – older women and younger men Picture Quote #1

I wondered about the science of storms and how sometimes it seemed that a storm wanted to break the world and how the world refused to break Picture Quote #1

After getting out of the service and going into baseball I never wanted to do anything else Picture Quote #1

I wanted to be a doctor when I was little, so I’m okay with blood and guts Picture Quote #1

Photography was a license to go wherever I wanted and to do what I wanted to do Picture Quote #1

Advertisements

I always wanted to be a photographer. I was fascinated with the materials, but I never dreamed I would be having this much fun. I imagined something much less elusive, much more mundane Picture Quote #1

I wanted to make pictures that felt natural, that felt like seeing, that didn’t feel like taking something in the world and making a piece of art out of it Picture Quote #1

All I ever wanted to do is to write stories that people will enjoy and feel at home with Picture Quote #1

Trapped. Sinking. Can’t be myself. Made into what other people expect. Is that everyone’s fate? Were the great individualists the products of their friends who wanted a great individualist as a friend? Picture Quote #1

By now, the camouflage had become my skin. My friends wouldn’t want to know. Who would want to know? I certainly didn’t want to know. All I wanted was to hold my assumptions to the light, and to watch them sparkle in their facets, as all sham gemstones do Picture Quote #1

It seems like many people think that if you drive yourself crazy, then you can write. I’m absolutely not interested in that. It made sense to me to be as whole and well as I could be, and as happy. I wanted to see what a fortunate life would produce. What writing would come out of a mind that didn’t try to torment itself? What did I have to know? What did I have to do rather than what can I torment and bend myself into doing? What was the fruit on that tree? Picture Quote #1
