Wishes are slippery things. You have to be very specific or you can get exactly what you wished for and still end up with nothing Picture Quote #1

Each day had a tranquility a timelessness about it so that you wished it would never end. But then the dark skin of the night would peel off and there would be a fresh day waiting for us glossy and colorful as a child’s transfer and with the same tinge of unreality Picture Quote #1

For I was never able to understand, then or later on, why, if one wanted to do a thing, one should not do it. For I have never waited to do as I wished. This has frequently brought me to disaster and calamity, but at least I have the satisfaction of getting my own way Picture Quote #1

He was making her feel small and absurdly petulant and, worse yet, she suspected he was right. She always suspected he was right.

Need gave him power without his trying; need was the choicelessness she often felt around him Picture Quote #1

We hit the sidewalk, and dropped hands. How I wished, right then, that the whole world was a street Picture Quote #1

I wished there was some kind of switch on my brain. That I could turn it off in the same way that I could turn off the television. Just click it off and immediately empty my mind of all these images and worrying thoughts. And simply leave a blank screen. Or if I could just remove my head and put it on the bedside table and forget about it until morning. And then attach it again when I needed it Picture Quote #1

And yet she could not forgive herself. Even as an adult, she wished only that she could go back and change things: the ungainly things she’d worn, the insecurity she’d felt, all the innocent mistakes she made Picture Quote #1

She tried to walk softly and wished the trees wouldn’t stare at her so Picture Quote #1

She briefly wished she did have some sort of magic so she could shoot a bolt of lightning through his head Picture Quote #1

I do not know what happened with your parents or why they did what they did. But in all the world, I could have wished for no daughter but you Picture Quote #1

Alcohol was for people who basically wished to be dead but lacked the courage to kill themselves Picture Quote #1

When he held her that way, she felt so happy that it disturbed her. After he left, it would take her hours to fall asleep, and then when she woke up she would feel another onrush of agitated happiness, which was a lot like panic. She wished she could grab the happiness and mash it into a ball and hoard it and gloat over it, but she couldn’t. It just ran around all over the place, disrupting everything Picture Quote #1

He wished he could reassure his mother: a man wants many things in life, but when one of them is also the right thing, he would be a fool not to choose it Picture Quote #1

When he was in school he longed to be out, and when he was out he longed to be in. On the way he thought about coming home, and coming home he thought about going. Wherever he was he wished he were somewhere else, and when he got there he wondered why he’d even bothered Picture Quote #1

... People would make the decisions they wished to make and some of them would hurt both themselves and those who loved them, and some would pass unnoticed, while others would bring joy Picture Quote #1

I mistrust the judgment of every man in a case in which his own wished are concerned Picture Quote #1

There’s an old story about the person who wished his computer were as easy to use as his telephone. That wish has come true, since I no longer know how to use my telephone Picture Quote #1

Don’t we all have moments we’d rather forget, and thoughts we wished never came to us? We say things too awful to remember Picture Quote #1

And every breath I ever took, every tear I ever wept, every star I wished upon seemed nothing until now. Every prayer I ever said seemed strangely answered now. Could it be I’m in love? Could it be I’m in love? Picture Quote #1

Mama tied a blindfold over my eyes. The next thing I felt my flesh was being cut away. I heard the blade sawing back and forth through my skin. The pain between my legs was so intense I wished I would die Picture Quote #1

A handsome young guy is stretching his arms and waking up. He is just about to reach for his coffee and is now being wished good morning by me. Have a lovely day ahead Picture Quote #1

Most people’s major life regrets are not about the things they’ve done, but about the things they’ve not done, the goals they never reached, the type of lover or friend or parent they wished they’d been but know they failed to be Picture Quote #1

How could I say that I wished to penetrate the secrets of the mountains in search of something still unknown that, like the yeti, might well be missed for the very fact of searching? Picture Quote #1

Love lost is a special kind of failure, I think. It’s a reminder that some consummations, no matter how devoutly wished for, never come; that some apes will never be men, not in all the world’s ages Picture Quote #1
