Wanted

Famous quotes containing the word wanted:

    I had gone so long without loving
    I hardly knew what I was thinking.

    Where I hid my face, your touch, quick, merciful
    Blindfolded me. A god breathed from my lips.
    If that was illusion, I wanted it to last long;
    James Merrill (b. 1926)

    At one of the later performances you asked why they called it a “miracle,”
    Since nothing ever happened. That, of course, was the miracle
    But you wanted to know why so much action took on so much life
    And still managed to remain itself, aloof, smiling and courteous.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    Something in me wanted to find out how far I could run without stopping.
    Jacki Hanson (b. 1948)
