Wanting Quotes

Many words are not wanting to show that the particular view of each court occasioned the dangers which affected the public tranquillity; yet the whole is charged to my account. Nor is this sufficient Picture Quote #1

And so much of my life has been about returning home and longing for home, wanting my children to know about my roots. And I thought I can’t be the only one to feel this way so I thought it would be an interesting topic to explore Picture Quote #1

People say it’s not ambitious, but it is actually quite ambitious wanting to help people Picture Quote #1

You don’t become great by trying to be great. You become great by wanting to do something, and then doing it so hard that you become great in the process Picture Quote #1

I don’t believe in perfection. I don’t think there is such a thing. But the energy of wanting things to be great is a perfectionist energy Picture Quote #1

No age is wanting in able men; it is the duty of wise masters to find them out, win them over, and get work done by means of them, without listening to the calumnies of selfish men against them Picture Quote #1

I will fight for you, yes, and you will fight for me. And if you have sacrificed joy and courage and beauty and wisdom for my sake, I will give them all to you again; and yet you must also give them to me, for they are things in which without you I am wanting. But together we can make them Picture Quote #1

People become less inhibited from wanting to change social and economic conditions in a radical fashion according to their own interests, and from being prepared to think of state intervention in ever wider spheres as possible and useful for this purpose Picture Quote #1

Nobody knows what you want except you. And nobody will be as sorry as you if you don’t get it. Wanting some other way to live is proof enough of deserving it. Having it is hard work, but not having it is sheer hell Picture Quote #1

To rescue our children we will have to let them save us from the power we embody: we will have to trust the very difference that they forever personify. And we will have to allow them the choice, without fear of death: that they may come and do likewise or that they may come and that we will follow them, that a little child will lead us back to the child we will always be, vulnerable and wanting and hurting for love and for beauty Picture Quote #1

It’s weak and despicable to go on wanting things and not trying to get them Picture Quote #1

I’m a walker. I enjoy walking, which I think psychologically expresses my feelings of wanting liberation without exerting myself too much Picture Quote #1

At the root of the shy temperament is a deep fear of social judgment, one so severe it can sometimes be crippling. Introverted people don’t worry unduly about whether they’ll be found wanting, they just find too much socializing exhausting and would prefer either to be alone or in the company of a select few people Picture Quote #1

I came out wanting to be an actor. From my first view of the world, that’s what I wanted to be. I’m made of 99 percent ham and 1 percent water. I was just cooked that way! Picture Quote #1

Since 9/11, there has been a huge leap in people wanting to get personally involved in public service and international affairs Picture Quote #1

I will always think of myself as that girl that is 22 starting and really excited about everything and wanting to be amazing at everything. I always wanted to be the best stylist. That was it Picture Quote #1

If something takes too long, something happens to you. You become all and only the thing you want and nothing else, for you have paid too much for it, too much in wanting and too much in waiting and too much in getting Picture Quote #1

We suffered failures of imagination just like everyone else, our daring was wanting, and our daily contentment too nearly adequate for us to give it up Picture Quote #1

Love is the wanting, and the having, and the choosing, and the becoming. Love is the desire to see the person we love be and become all he or she is capable of being and becoming. Love is a willingness to lay down our own personal plans, desires, and agenda for the good of the relationship. Love is delayed gratification, pleasure, and pain. Love is being able to live and thrive apart, but choosing to be together Picture Quote #1

I once heard my mother tell my sister love only comes at a price, there’s no way around it. You give up parts of yourself for love, she said. If that’s true, I thought, the cost of our love had risen. And despite wanting to be as real to you as you were to me, I couldn’t afford us any longer. We were beyond my means Picture Quote #1

Is it possible for a person to love without wanting love back? Is anything so pure? Or is love, by its nature, a reciprocity, like oceans and clouds, an evaporating of seawater and a replenishing by rain? Picture Quote #1

There’s really nothing quite like someone’s wanting you dead to make you want to go on living Picture Quote #1

Maybe I’m sad about wanting you. I’m not too comfortable with wanting someone Picture Quote #1

You are my heart as it beats within my chest, my soul as it moves through my mind. The breath in my body that so fascinates you is your essence pouring in and out of me in a wave that drowns me over and over again until I cannot breathe for wanting you. Needing you Picture Quote #1

A young woman, newly wed, may find herself in the delightful position of wanting to do nothing without the company of her darling husband. She may indeed discover that she spends all her waking hours with her fellow to the exclusion of every other friend or family member. This is understandable, but wholly unacceptable, to society Picture Quote #1

There are significant relationships, of course, between wanting things and caring about them.. The notion of caring is in large part constructed out of the notion of desire. Caring about something may be, in the end, nothing more than a certain complex mode of wanting it. However, simply attributing desire to a person does not in itself convey that the person cares about the object he desires Picture Quote #1

To be anorexic... she thought, amounted to wanting to shed yourself of some of the imperfect mosaic of pieces that made you who you were. She could understand that now for, maybe underneath that desquamated self you would locate a new version Picture Quote #1

Don’t you understand that wanting does not belong here, because that is what wounds, and there is never an end to it Picture Quote #1

I waited for a long time and there was nothing but the pain of wanting something I couldn’t seem to find Picture Quote #1

Our entire society is based on discontent. People wanting more and more and more. Being constantly dissatisfied with their homes, their bodies, their décor, their clothes, everything – taking it for granted that that’s the whole point of life. Never to be satisfied. If you are perfectly happy with what you got, especially if what you got isn’t even all the spectacular then you’re dangerous. You’re breaking all the rules. You’re undermining the sacred economy. You’re challenging every assumption that society is built on Picture Quote #1
