Wanting You Quotes (page 5)

A Dutch parent has a decidedly hairier story to relate, telling his children, 'Listen, you might want to pack a few of your things together before going to bed. The former bishop of Turkey will be coming tonight along with six to eight black men.

The stories never said why she was wicked. It was enough to be an old woman, enough to be all alone, enough to look strange because you have no teeth. It was enough to be called a witch. If it came to that, the book never gave you the evidence of anything. It talked about "a handsome prince"... was he really, or was it just because he was a prince that people called handsome? As for "a girl who was as beautiful as the day was long"... well, which day? In midwinter it hardly ever got light!... Terry Prachett
The Lord would want you to be successful. He would. You are His sons and His daughters. He has the same kind of love and ambition for you that your earthly parents have. They want you to do well and you can do it. Gordon B. Hinckley

The news isn't there to tell you what happened. It's there to tell you what it wants you to hear or what it thinks you want to hear. Joss Whedon
The reason I am so popular is that I give others back what they need to find in themselves. You need me not because I tell you what I want you to do but because I articulate and justify what you want to do. Azar Nafisi
Listen very carefully... listen to everyone and don't say much and think about what they say and how they say it and watch their eyes... it becomes like a big jigsaw, but you're the only one who can see all the pieces. You'll know what they want you to know, and what they don't want you to know, and even what they think no one knows. Terry Prachett
Dan Millman quote: "everyone tells you what's good for you. they don't want you to..."
everyone tells you what's good for you. they don't want you to find your own answers. they want you to believe theirs. Dan Millman
Haruki Murakami quote: "When you are used to the kind of life -of never getting..."

I don't want our relationship to end like this. You're one of the very few friends I have, and it hurts not being able to see you. When am I going to be able to talk to you? I want you to tell me that much, at least. Haruki Murakami
Usually when you're working is when people want you to work. They don't want you as much when you're not working. That's the frustrating nature of our business. Faith Ford
How can I tell the eighth or ninth man on the team that I want you to work hard every day and I want you to improve and get better, but while you're doing that you're not going to get any minutes? Isaiah Thomas
