Galileo wasn't put in prison because he was wrong about anything he discovered looking through his telescope; rather, he was incarcerated simply because he saw what others didn't wish to see.
I'm not a gardener. I wish I was.
I don't know a single surfer who would say, 'Gee, I wish there were no sharks in the ocean.'
I wish I was born in that era: dancing with Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly, going to work at the studio dressed in beautiful pants, head scarves, and sunglasses.
I grew up watching 'Braveheart' and 'Gladiator.' Those are my 'Star Wars.' They have values and traits about them that I wish I had.
I wish I was a gorgeous mixologist, but that was not my god-given strength.
'Granted' is about a lively young woman who does a fairy godmother a good turn and is given a wish as her reward.
I always wish I had another shot at it. But, listen, 'Godzilla' is something that I grew up loving. We worked hard to go make one. We kind of blew it. I think everyone gets one.
One of the downsides of being famous is that folks pay far more attention to you than they should. American celebrities are constantly under surveillance, and every word they say is subject to scrutiny. So, be careful what you wish for if you desire fame. No human being should be a goldfish.
I wish I was less good-looking and more unpopular. Then I could get into politics and use my pent-up resentment about being ugly and unpopular to systematically destroy the country.
Give to everyone who begs from you; and of him who takes away your goods do not ask them again. And as you wish that men would do to you, do so to them.
I always wished I had died, and I still wish that, because I could have gotten the whole thing over with.
I wish Obama would focus on governing the United States and would forget his country's imperialist pretensions.
Women wish to be loved without a why or a wherefore; not because they are pretty, or good, or well-bred, or graceful, or intelligent, but because they are themselves.
I'm pretty realistic. I cannot wish to be Chris Evert or Martina Navratilova because they won, like, a hundred Grand Slams.
I wish my mother had left me something about how she felt growing up. I wish my grandmother had done the same. I wanted my girls to know me.
I wish I could play the lead role in one movie, one great movie.
What could I wish for the present but to take the greatest pleasure in being what I am?
I didn't study Greek mythology in school and I wish I had.
I wish they taught green screen acting classes.
