I just want to have a nice, happy life.
In the future, I want a movie career, kids and a happy marriage.
I want to make some happy music.
I try to avoid describing one interpretation of my books. Of course I have an opinion. I have things I want to say, but I don't ever want to limit anybody, to have them say, 'Oh, he said this, so that's what it's about.' I'm happy people bring their own stuff to it.
The greater part of humanity is too much harassed and fatigued by the struggle with want, to rally itself for a new and sterner struggle with error.
I told Simon, 'I don't want to play Oscar. I want to play Felix because Oscar is too easy. He gets all the laughs. Felix is a hard part; that's the part I want to play.'
At the U.N., I routinely encounter countries that do not want to impose sanctions or even to enforce those already on the books. The hard-line sanctions skeptics have their own self-interested reasons for opposing sanctions, but they ground their opposition in claims that America uses sanctions to inflict punishment for punishment's sake.
Wealth and want equally harden the human heart.
I want to make wines that harmonize with food - wines that almost hug your tongue with gentleness.
We want to design interventions to teach people how to harness their considerable willpower.
I want to play the Grand Ole Opry for sure. And I want to meet and play with people like Emmylou Harris and Vince Gill.
I really fancy Harrison Ford. I've got to say I think he's really divine. He's, like, an older man, I guess, although he's not really that old, obviously. I don't want to offend him.
I will carry on writing, to be sure. But I don't know if I would want to publish again after Harry Potter.
If you're going to pick a book and you want to base a system of government around it, why not 'Harry Potter?'
Harry Reid rammed a partisan healthcare bill through the Senate that most Americans didn't want, and now it seems that members of his own staff don't want ObamaCare either.
My writing is jagged and harsh, I want it to remain that way; I don't want it smoothed out.
I want to be judged harshly because that forces me to really sit down and focus.
The funeral business is so manipulative emotionally. I would want to be thrown into the sea or burned - something that's not a big hassle.
Orrin Hatch is old enough to be my father, and I don't want my father running the United States Senate Finance Committee.
I don't want to sound like I'm a special type of Russia hater. There are very few heads of state in Europe that would not like to have very good relations with Russia.
