And while his mother's lecture had gone over his seven-year-old head, Pasquale saw now what she meant--how much easier life would be if our intentions and our desires could always be aligned.
Jess Walter
We could not be fulfilled if we weren't inauthentic some of the time—inauthentic, that is, in relation to such things as our passing desires to throttle our children, poison our spouse, or end our marriage over a dispute about changing a lightbulb.
Alain de Botton
I couldn't pick just one.The moment I'd touched the sugar packet, a thousand thoughts cascaded through my

Depression is possessed by Gravity whereas A deep aspiration fueled by Will can defy any Gravity...
Dinesh Kumar
Her gaze met his. "What do you want more than anything?"Right now, he felt like he could gaze into her green eyes for a century or two. They were amazing, the way they flared with anger, twinkled with humor, or softened with compassion. "I want to be loved, honestly and truly loved, for who I am. And I want to love a woman with all my heart for all my life. I want to ache for her mind, for her body, for her companionship."Her eyes widened. "Oh." (Toni & Ian)
Kerrelyn Sparks
It is hard to fight with one's heart's desires; whatever it wishes to get, it purchases at the cost of the soul.
Lawrence Durrell
...where our desires "come from"; that is a dark, winding road.
John Irving
A heart anchored in money will only drift away.
Anthony Liccione
Our desires are guided by what we believe to be good or bad; our beliefs are directed by our knowledge; our knowledge, in turn, is again a manipulation of our desires. Our Will, during this inexorable revolution, serves as the force, increasing, decreasing, or at worst, maintaining the pace.
Raheel Farooq
All their life, people work hard to earn money, and they never earn enough money to fulfill their dreams. Is this a paradox?
Saurabh Sharma
Your repressed feelings desperately try to climb to the surface but fail to do so, and in therapy we seek to reveal -- to uncloak, if you will -- these unconscious desires, the things that your mind tries to repress, those secrets of your soul.
Allan Dare Pearce
We are all artists painting our desires on the canvas of life.
Steven Redhead
Life becomes difficult when out of sync with your heart-felt desires.
Steven Redhead
Each new day offers the chance to start afresh, to achieve those things you most desires.
Steven Redhead
Dare to dream again.For dreaming is the language of your soul,And nothing your soul truly desires could ever be wrong or impossible.
Jacob Nordby
You are not what you want. You are what wants you back.
Gary Shteyngart
Thousands of desires, each worth dying for...Many of them I have realized...yet I yearn for more...Why should my killer (lover) be afraid? No one will hold her responsible,For the blood which will continuously flow through my eyes all my life.
Avinash Advani
Live it already, write about it from the point of view of already having it, and be so happy and grateful at its impending arrival.
Stephen Richards
When anyone is going wrong, it is a mistake to warn him not to go further. It is also a mistake to leave him alone. The proper course is to call his attention to something better, and frame our conversation in such a way that he becomes wholly absorbed in the better. He will then forget his old mistakes, his old faults and his old desires, and will give all his life and power to the building of that better which has engaged his new interest.
Christian D. Larson
Now, as an adult, my hopes for the future were simple: I wanted to be alone, and to be surrounded by flowers. It seemed, finally, that I might get exactly what I wanted.
Vanessa Diffenbaugh
Fulfilled desires, like pleasures (even of the intrinsic kind), are states of achievement rather than default states. For instance, one has to work at satiating oneself, while hunger comes naturally. After one has eaten or taken liquid, bowel and bladder discomfort ensues quite naturally and we have to seek relief. One has to seek out pleasurable sensations, in the absence of which blandness comes naturally. The upshot of this is that we must continually work at keeping suffering (including tedium) at bay, and we can do so only imperfectly. Dissatisfaction does and must pervade life. There are moments, perhaps even periods, of satisfaction, but they occur against a background of dissatisfied striving. Pollyannaism may cause most people to blur out this background, but it remains there.
David Benatar
We live in our desires rather than in our achievements
George Moore
Only an unsatisfied preference is bad. In other words, he argues that although it is good to have fulfilled whatever desires one might have, one is not better off having a fulfilled desire than having no desire at all. By way of example, consider the case in which we ‘paint the tree nearest to Sydney Opera house red and give Kate a pill that makes her wish that the tree nearest to Sydney Opera House were red’*. Professor Fehige plausibly denies that we do Kate any favour in doing this. She is no better off than had we done nothing. What matters is not that people have satisfied desires but that they do not have unsatisfied ones. It is the avoidance of frustration that is important.* Fehige, Christoph, ‘A Pareto Principle for Possible People’, 513–14.
David Benatar
We're all stuck between the realm of our desires, their possibilities and the realities of life.
Huseyn Raza
Remember that our desires will not arrive by our schedule. If you really want to make God laugh, tell Him your plans.
Wayne W. Dyer
Awaken to the opportunities available for you today. It’s not too late to be, do, and have, whatever you so desire. It’s only late if you don’t begin today, the time is now. Go, make it happen!
Bernard Kelvin Clive
He wanted to toast mad idealism, forbidden desires, the dreams that drove one to criminal acts. He wanted, quite starkly, oblivion.
Paul Russell
i felt like i was wanting you more than ever..I want to fall asleep with the pure sound of your heart beat, wrapped around your warm arms, feeling your skin against mine and wake up with the sound of your sweet voice and a beautiful smile on a saturday morning.I want to kiss you from head to toe and drown in your carefree laughI want the entirety of you and love you endlessly.....when i wake up this morning and pondered of my wantsit break my heart to realise that my simple wants are nowhere near achievable....
gagabriel
You are worthy and deserving of your desires. Following your heart’s Desire is the same as living God’s will, when you listen to your inner self and wisdom; you are actually carrying out God’s intention.
Malti Bhojwani
People make themselves unhappy by desiring and praising only one thing, by becoming too one-sided in trying to find contentment. If we were just in harmony with ourselves we would enjoy the things of this world much more. But when we have an inordinate amount of desires and aspirations, we only listen to them, we are incapable of understanding the essential innocence of things outside ourselves. Unfortunately, we often term those things important that are the objects of our emotions, and those things that have no relation to our desires are called unimportant; however, many times it is exactly the opposite.
Adalbert Stifter
For nurturing the mind, there’s nothing like paring your desires away to a very few. If you have few desires, there may still be some capricious whims in your mind, but they’ll be few. If you have many desires, there may be some enduring principles in your mind, but they’ll be few indeed.
Mencius
Women. They're irresistible that's for sure, and they love to remind us that they are the keepers of our desires.
Jack Dancer
A man who does not know God lives guided by the desires of his flesh.
Sunday Adelaja
God desires that Christians would avoid repeating the disobedient mistakes of the Israelites.
Sunday Adelaja
He who recollects a thing by which he was once pleased desires to possess it in the same circumstances as when he first was pleased by it. He who was never pleased is doomed to an eternal hard-on.
Aleksandar Hemon
Accepting the fact that she did indeed have Alzheimer's, that she could only bank on two unacceptably effective drugs available to treat it, and that she couldn't trade any of this in for some other, curable disease, what did she want? Assuming the in vitro procedure worked, she wanted to live to hold Anna's baby and know it was her grandchild. She wanted to see Lydia act in something she was proud of. She wanted to see Tom fall in love. She wanted one more sabbatical year with John. She wanted to read every book she could before she could no longer read.She laughed a little, surprised at what she'd just revealed about herself. Nowhere in that list was anything about linguistics, teaching, or Harvard. She ate her last bite of cone. She wanted more sunny, seventy-degree days and ice-cream cones.
Lisa Genova
The only thing we can try to do is to influence the direction scientists are taking. Since we might soon be able to engineer our desires too, perhaps the real questions facing us is not 'What do we want to become?', but "What do we want to want?' Those who are not spooked by this question probably haven't given it enough thought.
Yuval Noah Harari
Not every relation has the same fate, not every relation has the same name, some relations are in our deepest desire which can never be fulfilled, but they ever remains in our heart for ever,... there lies the purity of such relations...
Debolina Bhawal
It is never late, pursuit your ambitions.
Lailah Gifty Akita
If I could have anything, it would be a radio to ask NASA the safe path down the Ramp. Well, if I could have anything, it would be for the green-skinned yet beautiful Queen of Mars to rescue me so she can learn more about this Earth thing called “lovemaking.
Andy Weir
Action is what will produce your desired results.
Rosette Mugidde Wamambe
Life may become difficult when you are out of sync with your heart-felt desires.
Steven Redhead
Life can become difficult when out of sync with your heart-felt desires.
Steven Redhead
Time should always by used well to maximise personal desires.
Steven Redhead
We are all artists painting our desires on the canvas of life and time.
Steven Redhead
A martyrdom is always the design of God, for His love of men, to warn them and to lead them, to bring them back to His ways. It is never the design of man; for the true martyr is he who has become the instrument of God, who has lost his will in the will of God, and who no longer desires anything for himself, not even the glory of being a martyr.
T.S Eliot
Only you can find yourself by losing yourself again and again in the deep darkness of your driving desires.
Debasish Mridha
Your driving desires will determine what you become.
Debasish Mridha
Sooner or later everyone is defeated by their desires.
Rafael Yglesias
Human beings are not primarily thinking creatures. We are creatures driven by our loves.
Matt Chandler
God desires that through us the ones who do not know him will be convinced
