“Never wish life were easier, wish that you were better.”

“"Wish You Were Here" on Wish You Were Here (Pink Floyd, 1975)”

“I wish you were here
I wish you were here
To see what I could see
To hear
And I wish you were here”

“To wish that the world were better is the best indicator that you need to be better, not the best indicator that the world isn't the best it can be.”

“You wanted to look at life for yourself — but you were not allowed; you were punished for your wish. You were ground in the very mill of the conventional!”

“Amanda: Whose yacht is that?
Elyot: The Duke of Westminster's I expect. It always is.
Amanda: I wish I were on it.
Elyot: I wish you were too.
Amanda: There's no need to be nasty.
Elyot: Yes, there is every need. I've never in my life felt a greater urge to be nasty.”

“I wish. I don’t know what I wish. That you were less I were more, perhaps. Yes, just possibly that’s it”

“The weather is here Wish you were beautiful.”

“I work quite diligently and wish that I were better and smarter. And these both are one and the same.”

“I wish, I wish I were a poisonous bacterium.”
