[How can everyone help bring peace to the world?] By not being ashamed of who they are and by acting according to their heart's desires. And by telling their stories.
- Paulo Coelho
It is hard to contend against one's heart's desire; for whatever it wishes to have it buys at the cost of soul.
- Heraclitus
Justice is the loveliest and health is the best, but the sweetest to obtain is the heart's desire.
- Aristotle
There Are But Two Tragedies in Life-One is One's Inability to attain One's Heart's Desire-The Other Is To Have It!
- Francis Bacon
If I ever go looking for my heart's desire again, I won't look any further than my own back yard. Because if it isn't there, I never really lost it to begin with.
- L Frank Baum
A key ingredient to achieving your goals is to make sure your goals are totally congruent with who you are as a person. Your head and hearts desire must match. It's such an important step in goal achievement and if we miss it, we can end up travelling a long way down the wrong path!
- Rachael Bermingham
Life contains but two tragedies. One is not to get your heart's desire; the other is to get it.
- George Bernard Shaw
There are two tragedies in life. One is to lose your heart's desire. The other is to gain it.
- George Bernard Shaw
Some prices are just too high, no matter how much you may want the prize. The one thing you can't trade for your heart's desire is your heart.
- Lois Mcmaster Bujold
Never give up on your dreams. No matter how many people say it's impossible, no matter how difficult your journey is, you can create your ideal life. Your heart's desires can become reality. Make things better now by taking steps every day to get closer to the life you want. And never, ever give up.
- Susane Colasanti
Life contains but two tragedies. One is not to get your heart's desire; the other is to get it.
- Socrates
Time and memory are true artists; they remould reality nearer to the heart's desire.
- John Dewey
... the Iroquois take dreams very seriously. They see them as the secret wishes of the soul--the heart's desire, so to speak. Not all dreams, maybe, but the important ones. [p.254]
- Kim Edwards
God never witholds from His child that which His love and wisdom call good. God's refusals are always merciful -- "severe mercies" at times but mercies all the same. God never denies us our hearts desire except to give us something better.
- Elisabeth Elliot
No man may earn his heart's desire, lest first he brave the smoke and fire
- Nicholas Evans
But he did not understand the price. Mortals never do. They only see the prize, their heart's desire, their dream... But the price of getting what you want, is getting what you what you once wanted.
- Neil Gaiman
There was once a young man who wished to gain his Heart's Desire.
- Neil Gaiman
Arya was a trial, it must be said. Half a boy and half a wolf pup. Forbid her anything and it became her heart's desire. She had Ned's long face, and brown hair that always looked as though a bird had been nesting in it. I despaired of ever making a lady of her. She collected scabs as other girls collected dolls, and would say anything that came into her head. I think that she must be dead too.
- George R R Martin
She narrowed her eyes. "What is our heart's desire?"
"Vengeance." His voice was soft, as if he were afraid that someone might be listening. "Justice." Prince Doran pressed the onyx dragon into her palm with his swollen, gouty fingers, and whispered, "Fire and blood.
- George R R Martin
Imagine in vibrant, wonderful detail your heart's desire; a reality only you can envision, an adventure only you can direct.
Then cradle your creation. Caress it. Mold it. Coddle it until it comes to life.
And when your precious treasure grows so grand as to steal your breath away, set it free for all the world to experience. For that is how you live your dreams.
- Richelle E Goodrich
I got my heart's desire, he thought, and there my troubles began.

I hadn't even been looking, not for you, and now you were my heart's desire.
- Daniel Handler
(T)he thing with your heart's desire is that your heart doesn't even know what it desires until it turns up. Like a tie at a tag sale, some perfect thing in a crate of nothing, you were just there, uninvited, and now suddenly the party was over and you were all I wanted, the best gift. I hadn't even been looking, not for you, and now you were my heart's desire..
- Daniel Handler
And for yourself, may the gods grant you your heart's desire, a husband and a home, and the blessing of a harmonious life. For nothing is greater or finer than this, when a man and woman live together with one hear and mind, bringing joy to their friends and grief to their foes.
- Homer
She was telling me that I had a life of disappointment before me if I continued to love him as I did. A love that is too strong can turn poisonous and bring great unhappiness. And then, what is the remedy? Can you unlearn your heart's desire? Can you stop loving someone? Easier to drown yourself; easier to take the lover's leap.
- Alma Katsu
"It almost felt like the dolphin of my heart's desire playing in the ocean of my life." - on writing
- Mariam Kobras
A fine world in which man reproaches woman with fulfilling his heart's desire!
- Karl Kraus
Alas," said Aslan, shaking his head. "It will. Things always work according to their nature. She has won her heart's desire; she has unwearying strength and endless days like a goddess. But length of days with an evil heart is only length of misery and already she begins to know it. All get what they want; they do not always like it.
- C S Lewis
Your heart's desire is to be told some mystery. The mystery is that there is no mystery.
- Cormac Mccarthy
As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.

What happens when you lose your heart's desire?
- Stephenie Meyer
We will try to create conditions where persons could come together in a spirit of teamwork, and exercise to their heart's desire their technological capacity.
- Akio Morita
Have you ever found your heart's desire and then lost it? I had seen myself, a portrait of myself as a reader. My childhood: days home sick from school reading Nancy Drew, forbidden books read secretively late at night. Teenage years reading -trying to read- books I'd heard were important, Naked Lunch, and The Fountainhead, Ulysses and Women in Love... It was as though I had dreamt the perfect lover, who vanished as I woke, leaving me pining and surly.
- Audrey Niffenegger
To manifest your hearts desires you must BE what your heart desires.
- Joy Page
Young girls think they know what their hearts desire, what they want the most. When really, we know nothing of love, devotion and utter loyalty. Not until we break our own hearts when we learn that what we desire is nothing like what we thought it would be.
- Alexia Purdy
You, of all people, deserve a happy ending. Despite everything that happened to you, you aren't bitter. You aren't cold. You've just retreated a little and been shy, and that's okay. If I were a fairy godmother, I would give you your heart's desire in an istant. And I would wipe away your tears and tell you not to cry.
-Rachel to Julia
- Sylvain Reynard
let's get away from
all the clever humans
who put words in our mouth
let's only say what our hearts desire.
- Rumi
But love is what we want, not freedom. Who then is the unluckier man? The beloved, who is given his heart's desire and must for ever after fear its loss, or the free man, with his unlooked-for liberty, naked and alone between the captive armies of the earth?
- Salman Rushdie
We knew our Father. There was no need for persuasion. Would not His Fatherliness be longing to give us our hearts' desire (if I may put it so)? How could we press Him as though He were not our own most loving Father?
- Amy Wilson Carmichael
There are two tragedies in life. One is never getting your heart's desire. The other is getting it.
- Joan D Vinge
Even if you fulfill your hearts desire, by sacrificing something important, you may not necessarily be happy. Happiness doesn't come in one form, it determined by your own heart.
