“We want what we can’t have, even when we have no right to demand it.”

“We can’t choose what we want and don’t want and that’s the hard lonely truth. Sometimes we want what we want even if we know it’s going to kill us. We can’t escape who we are.”

“Happiness isn’t getting what we want but being satisfied with what we have. The way to be happy is to be grateful even with the simple blessings we have.”

“It was you it was me it was every man
We've all got the blood on our hands
We only receive what we demand
and if we want hell then hells what we'll have.”

“We have a right to believe whatever we want, but not everything we believe is right.”

“When we say "War is over if you want it," we mean that if everyone demanded peace instead of another TV set, we'd have peace.”

“We imagined we knew everything the other thought, even when we did not necessarily want to know it, but in fact, I have come to see, we knew not the smallest fraction of what there was to know.”

“Sometimes, we just have to be happy with what people can offer us. Even if it's not what we want, at least it's something.”

“The government is not God. It does not have the right to take away that which it can’t return even if it wants to.”

“We try to do what's right, or rather what other say is right. But sometimes, when that goes against who we are… you have to choose.”
