His green eyes sparkled as he entered, and Livia kicked her door shut. He caught her hands, and Livia let her lips touch his. They leaned into one another, mindful not to let her still-wet body touch his freshly dried one. It was like their kisses were over an imaginary wishing well. - Debra Anastasia We are like a wishing well And a bolt of electricity - Fiona Apple I felt stuck in the bottom of a wishing well. I was desperate to shout what I wanted, but I didn't know what that was. I knew only what it wasn't. The Hundred Secret Senses by Amy Tan - Amy Tan There is no wonder, no amazement, quite like that felt when something supposed for amusement's sake to be magical and mysterious actually manifests the properties imagination has assigned it in jest--when the toy pistol shoots real bullets, the wishing well grants actual wishes, lovers from down the street fling themselves into Death's bright arms from Lovers' Leap - Gene Wolfe

Maybe my sister and I shared more than we thought. We were both waiting and wishing for something we couldn't completely control: I wanted to be alone, and she the total opposite.

When you stop wishing things wouldn't fall apart, you stop suffering when they do. - John Green you have to realize that you don't have someone else's life and your never going to. You better start loving the one you got. Embrass the life you have and stop wishing that you could be someone else. Just stop all that and start saying "God here I am. Do what you want to do with me". - Joyce Meyer STOP wishing for a better tomorrow...when you can keep working for a better today! - Timothy Pina If you feel like there's something out there that you're supposed to be doing, if you have a passion for it, then stop wishing and just do it. - Wanda Sykes
