My books are comedies; I want to take my readers on a jet-setting romp, make them laugh, make them swoon at the beautiful settings, and maybe even make their mouths water at all the food.
I am tired, beloved, of chafing my heart against the want of you; of squeezing it into little ink drops, and posting it. And I scald alone, here, under the fire of the great moon.
I don't just want to upset people and shock people by saying something really outrageous.
The last thing I want to become is one of those talking heads where everything is satiny smooth and you know what the next question is going to be.
I will wear makeup because I want to look good for myself, but it's not to please other people. It's not so I fit in with the pretty girls or to impress guys.
I come from a different era and I design clothes for our era. I think of people I want to dress when I design.
I want to make a pop album - something more upbeat than my stuff was in the '90s.
I always want to win, and it was time to win some club prizes, some titles. I never would have gone for the money, but wanted the chance to get a bit further in my career. And it turned out to be the right decision.
For me personally it is because I get an awful amount of success and I don't think I deserve it and then I want to sabotage it.
You have to surround yourself with people who love you and want the best for you.
When you're with girl you want to be with, everything's perfect.
The big thing is that you know what you want.
It is very clear that the Republicans do not want to raise taxes.
I want to transform state government. What it takes is a strong CEO type... a leader who can drive things.
It's funny to be discovered by a lot of people who didn't know you before. People always used to say, 'Do you shop at Home Depot?' or 'Does your kid go to such and such school?' They want to know why they know me, even if they don't know my name. I don't think that's a bad thing, by the way; I think it's nice to be kind of anonymously famous.
I never want to possibly take another life in my hands.
But more than that, I wanted my wife and my family to see how I can actually play this game. They haven't seen me at my best, and I want them to.
It is quite amazing what I didn't feel after a while. I didn't really want to feel things.
The people of Shishmaref want their community to survive, but they are holding on to their legacy by a very delicate thread indeed. The threat of their land disappearing is only the beginning.
Everybody thinks if you do one thing, you can't do something else. So I like the fact that I can be versatile if I want to.
We want our idols to be dead because it makes death a much less scary place.
I didn't want to travel. I didn't want to leave my family. I heard all these stories from Dad about not having Edward around when he was young, and I didn't want that to happen.
A court is like a scene, people want to see attractive people.
I don't take relationships too seriously, but everyone else seems to. And when you get your heart broken, it's like the end of the world. And I look at it as that was one moment in your life, one chapter. That person helped you grow and figure out what kind of person you want to be with in the future.
Fact is, famous people say fame stinks because they love it so - like a secret restaurant or holiday island they don't want the hoi polloi to get their grubby paws on.
I just want to make sure that I give the animators everything they need, so they have plenty of choices to match their animation.
I just want to make great films and be good in them. And I think that my perception of what's great in a film is constantly evolving.
As women, we know that we must always find ways to change the process because the present institutions want to hold on to power and keep the status quo.
I do want to go out on top, as a winner.
I'd like to think there'll be too much of real life going on for me to want to do much acting.
Do what you really want to do. That's why God put you on this earth.
We just want to be sure that what we're creating is pushing the ball forward for women and diversity in media.
We've observed that people who stall in their personal growth work often have counterproductive soft addictions that stand in their way of growth and having the life they say they want. It can be a simple thing, such as watching TV instead of finishing a project.
Those who are born of parents broken with old age, or of such as are not yet ripe or are too young, or of drunkards, soft or effeminate men, want a great and liberal ingenuity or wit.
I'm in the process of working out an arrangement to make some very, very, very small films in the midst of all these films and maybe that will help. But you get tired of talking. You just want to do it.
Gardeners may create order briefly out of chaos, but nature always gets the last word, and what it says is usually untidy by human standards. But I find all states of nature beautiful, and because I want to delight in my garden, not rule it, I just accept my yen to tame the chaos on one day and let the Japanese beetles run riot on the next.
