Text Quotes
Never complain. When I did, my mother said that if I didn’t like my life, I could just give up and die. She reminded me that when I was inside her, I told her that I wanted to be born, so she delivered me, breastfed me and changed my diapers. She said that I had to be brave  (Wanted Quotes) I was just on the edge of getting married, and I was frenzied at the prospect of this great step in my life after having been a bachelor for so long.

Along the way, however, the camera also caught evidence against hope, and I eventually concluded that this, too, belonged in pictures if they were to be truthful and thus useful  (Wanted Quotes) I never dreamt of being a musician for my livelihood. I certainly never would have wanted to be in the business that I’m in, meaning the fame and the glory, the glitter, the rock star, the famous part  (Wanted Quotes) Ever since I was a kid, I always wanted to play music that I liked, and even when I was in cover bands when I was a teenager we only played cover tunes that we liked. That was the simple morality that I grew up with  (Wanted Quotes) My father’s death from prostate cancer in 1993 was tragic. He never complained about pain. He was a fighter. By the time he was ready to die he wasn’t able to die in the way that he wanted to, which seemed an outrage to me  (Wanted Quotes) One fan wrote asking for a very specific autographed photo. He wanted me to pose in tight jeans and boots and even enclosed a sketch of how I should dress! A lot of them just say they wish they had a girlfriend like me. They’re very endearing letters  (Wanted Quotes) I initially wanted to be a teacher, and then I was going to become an engineer and build bridges and highways, but pretty soon I went into the business world. I never did get to be a teacher except in a different way  (Wanted Quotes) Liverpool was an industrial town, a poor town. The people fought hard for what they wanted to achieve and there was a hunger there, and that hunger has remained with the musicians  (Wanted Quotes) I’ve never wanted to kill myself over anything major. It’s always the little things that do me in  (Wanted Quotes) My father was a really funny guy. He lived a good long life. And he was the reason I wanted to be funny and become a comedian and a comedy writer, so to say that he’s somewhat of a mythic figure in my life would be an understatement  (Wanted Quotes) I’ve always wanted to be the biggest real estate man to come down the pike  (Wanted Quotes) The game’s been good to me and I hope I’ve been good to the game. I’m 50 years old and I’ve pretty much did everything that I wanted to do in boxing  (Wanted Quotes) I’ve been mainly a happy boy in my life. I married the right girl and we did what we wanted to do  (Wanted Quotes) I’m vain enough to think that I’ve made a successful life. I’ve had everything I’ve ever wanted. You can’t beat that  (Wanted Quotes) Fame is a lot of fun, but it’s not interesting. I loved being noticed and praised, even the banquets. But they didn’t have anything that I wanted. After about six months, I found it boring  (Wanted Quotes) I didn’t know exactly what I wanted to do in school, but I definitely didn’t have adequate time to reach my full potential as a student  (Wanted Quotes) While I was writing I assumed it would be published under a pseudonym, and that liberated me: what I wrote was exactly what I wanted to read  (Wanted Quotes) I never had a role that I set out for. I always wanted to have a body of work that I’m proud of. Save for two projects, which will never pass my lips, I’m happy with what I’ve done  (Wanted Quotes) I always felt like I needed to act. Not that I wanted to act, but I needed to. And I still feel that same way. There’s an expression that I get to have in acting that I can’t consciously express in my life. It has always defined me and it always will  (Wanted Quotes) At the age of 15, a teacher had asked me what I wanted to do for a career, and without knowing why or even how I replied that I wanted to be a poet  (Wanted Quotes) It’s very nice to see when somebody who wanted to work hard and is willing to put the work in gets rewarded for it  (Wanted Quotes) I don’t want to play the same person twice, that’s not why I wanted to act  (Wanted Quotes) My number one thing was that if I ever did get successful enough to make it, I wanted to be able to give back to my family  (Wanted Quotes) I wanted to write about women and their work, and about valuing the work we, as women, choose to do.

Many working mothers thought they ought to be home with their children instead, so they carried around too much guilt to enjoy much job satisfaction  (Wanted Quotes) I’ve always wanted to be a writer. Ever since I learned to read, I’ve wanted to share stories with others the way my favorite writers shared their stories with me  (Wanted Quotes) Most women get pregnant and even though it’s a challenge physically and uncomfortable, they generally wanted to be pregnant  (Wanted Quotes) Long before I ever started acting, believe it or not, I always knew I wanted to be a director  (Wanted Quotes) I worked with my dad for 15 years.
