"The difference between greed and ambition is a greedy person desires things he isn't prepared to work for."

"The human body is the best work of art."

"Art is the desire of a man to express himself, to record the reactions of his personality to the world he lives in."

"When I touched her body,I believed she was God.In the curves of her formI found the birth of Man,the creation of the world,and the origin of all life."

"When we were we, with you is the only place I wanted to be. When we were just two separate souls, I used to dream of a place where we'd come together as one.-Jarod Kintz and Karen Quan"

"Desiring another person is perhaps the most risky endeavor of all. As soon as you want somebody—really want him—it is as though you have taken a surgical needle and sutured your happiness to the skin of that person, so that any separation will now cause a lacerating injury."

"Art never harms itself by keeping aloof from the social problems of the day: rather, by so doing, it more completely realises for us that which we desire."

"Whosoever desires constant success must change his conduct with the times."

"All men want, not something to do with, but something to do, or rather something to be."

"Wars fought over a face like this,” he murmured like he was talking to himself, my heart stopped beating and his thumbs moved lightly across my cheeks. “A man would work himself into the ground for it, go down to his knees to beg to keep it, endure torture to protect it, take a bullet for it,” his eyes came to mine, “poison his brother to possess a face like this."

"Why pay for an undesirable outcome with someone else? For the same money, you could have paid me to stay at home and do nothing."

"I felt like an animal, and animals don’t know sin, do they?"

"I will always desire to play with Bruce Springsteen. He's the most inspirational, most dedicated, most committed and most focused artist I've ever seen. I like to be around people like that."

"Desire makes life happen. Makes it matter. Makes everything worth it. Desire is life. Hunger to see the next sunrise or sunset, to touch the one you love, to try again. “Hell would be waking up and wanting nothing,” he agrees."

"Desire is the key to motivation, but it’s determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of your goal - a commitment to excellence - that will enable you to attain the success you seek."

"Why are desire scales 1-10? They should be 1-12, like a clock, because I want her 1-12, I mean like all the time."

"I live for sex. I celebrate it, and relish the electricity of it, with every fibre of my being. I can see no better reason for being alive."

"Why me?"she asked, holding on to him."Because you cared,"he whispered. "You cared so much for your people, it broke your heart to see the pack in ruins. You cared so much for your mother, you risked your life for hers. You cared enough to save someone who wanted you dead. And because you walk like a queen."

"Your hand can seize today, but not tomorrow; and thoughts of your tomorrow are nothing but desire. Don’t waste this breath, if your heart isn’t crazy, since "the rest of your life"won’t last forever."
