The sun is chirping, the birds are shining, the water's wet, and life's good, baby. Or so they say.

The trouble with getting what you want is exactly what one might think the trouble might be.

We are ruined, not by what we really want, but by what we think we do; therefore never go abroad in search of your wants; if they be real wants, they will come home in search of you; for he that buys what he does not want, will soon want what he cannot buy.

It is not from nature, but from education and habits, that our wants are chiefly derived.

Modern man lives under the illusion that he knows what he wants, while he actually wants what he is supposed to want.

Do you ever feel trapped in a tiny box? A tiny, little box with no windows and the walls are closing in?

Craving, not having, is the mother of a reckless giving of oneself.

I am hopelessly and irrevocably reckless, I suppose.
