Wants Quotes
He who reflects on another man's want of breeding, shows he wants it as much himself.
Plutarch
Our necessities are few, but our wants are endless.
George Bernard Shaw
What man lacks most is will, constancy of will. Man works to earn his living, and when he finishes his day … He wants to sleep. He is lazy where public things are concerned. We let catastrophes come, we let them ripen. They don’t come because men want them to; they come because men want to sleep. ‘We can’t do anything about it. If it must happen, better not to know about it. Humanity has always been severely threatened. The threats are not diminishing. But one must sleep, after all. Sleep.
Etienne Decroux

I decided that I want to live the rest of my life happy with what I'm doing. So when I play tennis again, I have to play it for the right reason. I don't want to play to get my No. 1 ranking back. I don't want to play for the attention, or to earn more. I don't even want to play because the world wants to see me do it, even though it's nice to know that the world is interested. I only want to play because I love the game, which is the reason I began to play at age seven in the first place.
Monica Seles

Michael Gross
We wants it, we needs it. Must have the precious. They stole it from us. Sneaky little hobbitses. Wicked, tricksy, false!
J. R. R. Tolkien
You start to compete with yourself when your catalog gets bigger and bigger... I mean, everybody wants the next 'Bless the Broken Road,' but you don't write those every day, so it's difficult.
Jay DeMarcus
Rascal Flatts
"Work your way on to number twelve,” she snapped. “Number eleven wants nothing more to do with you.
Courtney Milan
We buy things. We wear them or put them on our walls, or sit on them, but anyone who wants to can take them away from us. Or break them. ... Long after he's dead, someone else will own those stupid little boxes, and then someone after him, just as someone owned them before he did. But no one ever thinks of that: objects survive us and go on living. It's stupid to believe we own them. And it's sinful for them to be so important.
Donna Leon
