Text Quotes
We are never present with, but always beyond ourselves. Fear, desire, and hope are still pushing us on towards the future  (Desire Quotes) To wish is of little account; to succeed you must earnestly desire; and this desire must shorten thy sleep  (Desire Quotes) The greatest flood has the soonest ebb; the sorest tempest the most sudden calm; the hottest love the coldest end; and from the deepest desire oftentimes ensues the deadliest hate  (Desire Quotes) Calmness of will is a sign of grandeur. The vulgar, far from hiding their will, blab their wishes. A single spark of occasion discharges the child of passions into a thousand crackers of desire  (Desire Quotes) Tis an old lesson; time approves it true, and those who know it best, deplore it most; when all is won that all desire to woo, the paltry prize is hardly worth the cost  (Desire Quotes) We consider ourselves as defective in memory, either because we remember less than we desire, or less than we suppose others to remember  (Desire Quotes) The authority of those who teach is very often an impediment to those who desire to learn  (Desire Quotes) In conversation, humor is more than wit, easiness more than knowledge; few desire to learn, or think they need it; all desire to be pleased, or, at least, to be easy  (Desire Quotes) I consider that the spirit of politeness is a certain desire to bring it about, that, by our words and manners, others may be pleased with us and with themselves  (Desire Quotes) He who has it in his power to commit sin, is less inclined to do so. The very idea of being able, weakens the desire  (Desire Quotes) There is in all of us an impediment to perfect happiness; namely, weariness of the things which we possess, and a desire for the things which we have not  (Desire Quotes) It is a shame for a man to desire honor because of his noble progenitors, and not to deserve it by his own virtue  (Desire Quotes) Perfection does not exist. To understand it is the triumph of human intelligence; to desire to possess it is the most dangerous kind of madness  (Desire Quotes) The passion for praise, which is so very vehement in the fair sex, produces excellent effects in women of sense, who desire to be admired for that which only deserves admiration  (Desire Quotes) Does not any limit imposed upon one inspire a desire to go beyond it? Does not our keenest suffering arise when our free will is crossed?  (Desire Quotes) The events we most desire do not happen; or, if they do, it is neither in the time nor in the circumstances when they would have given us extreme pleasure  (Desire Quotes) Most arts require long study and application; but the most useful art of all, that of pleasing, requires only the desire  (Desire Quotes) No sincere desire of doing good need make an enemy of a single human being; that philanthropy has surely a flaw in it which cannot sympathize with the oppressor equally as with the oppressed  (Desire Quotes) The ambitious climbs up high and perilous stairs, and never cares how to come down; the desire of rising hath swallowed up his fear of a fall  (Desire Quotes) Undoubtedly the desire for food has been, and still is, one of the main causes of great political events  (Desire Quotes) Do you desire not to be angry? Be not inquisitive. He who inquires what is said of him only works out his own misery  (Desire Quotes) We have this principal desire implanted in us by nature, that our first wish is to preserve ourselves  (Desire Quotes) I have also a passionate desire to know what things really looked like when they were first built. So often we only see a building as it was restored in the nineteenth century  (Desire Quotes) Love, is sometimes a simpler form of slowly dying, it’s like a bullet that ricochets off time’s walls of desire, waiting to hit that picture perfect heart of regrets  (Desire Quotes) Essential to life, is desiring the things that you need, than needing the things you desire  (Desire Quotes) Roses just now predominate. There is a satisfying solidity about the bunches, a glorious abundance which, in a commodity so easily enjoyed without ownership, is scarcely credible. I feel no desire to own these huge aggregations of odorous beauty. It would be like owning a harem, one imagines  (Desire Quotes) When seen as a whole, art derives from a person’s desire to communicate himself to another. I do not believe in an art which is not forced into existence by a human being’s desire to open his heart. all art, literature, and music must be born in your heart’s blood. Art is your heart’s blood  (Desire Quotes) ... For those who bring to the task perfect sincerity and a real desire to meet with truth, those I hope will be satisfied and convinced of the proofs of a religion so divine, which I have here collected, and in which I have followed somewhat after this order  (Desire Quotes) The desire to die was my one and only concern; to it I have sacrificed everything, even death  (Desire Quotes) The vulgar man is always the most distinguished, for the very desire to be distinguished is vulgar  (Desire Quotes)
