Beware of your wishes: They will probably come true.
You wish for something, you've wanted it for years, and you're sure you want it, as long as you know you can't have it. But if all at once it looks as though your wish might come true, you suddenly find yourself wishing you had never wished for any such thing.
Be careful what you wish for. There's always a catch.
To be sure, the ancient belief that the dream reveals the future is not entirely devoid of truth. By representing to us a wish as fulfilled the dream certainly leads us into the future; but this future, taken by the dreamer as present, has been formed into the likeness of that past by the indestructible wish.
I always wanted my mother to be Queen for a Day. I always used to watch that show that came on television.
I remember when I was a kid, I would watch 'Superman', and I was super into the feeling of knowing that Clark Kent is Superman and no one knows.
When you really want something to happen, the whole universe conspires so that your wish comes true.
I had about the biggest, longest wish list anyone could have, and 99 percent of what I wanted to get on the screen we got on the screen within our schedule and within our budget and within our resources.
When I was a kid, I really loved watching 'Cinderella.' It's a fantasy, and every girl knows that real life isn't always like these movies, but as a child, I just really loved the story of 'Cinderella.' I found it to be so romantic and just a beautiful movie to watch.
All of us write wish fulfillment.
If you look at romantic comedies as pieces of commerce, the audience is looking for wish fulfillment.
I wish that we did have a magic wand which we could wave and hey presto! Magic! Unfortunately life is not like that.
When they had eventually calmed down a bit, and had gotten home, Mr. Duncan put the magic pebble in an iron safe. Some day they might want to use it, but really, for now, what more could they wish for? They all had all that they wanted.
One night, I lay awake for hours, just terrified. When the dawn finally came up - the comfortable blue sky, the familiar world returning - I could think of no other way to express my relief than through poetry. I made a decision there and then that it was what I wanted to do. Every time I pulled a wishbone, it was what I asked for.
Be careful what you wish for. I know that for a fact. Wishes are brutal, unforgiving things. They burn your tongue the moment they're spoken and you can never take them back.
Illusion is an anodyne, bred by the gap between wish and reality.
I think I've had the fantasy of a ray-gun that could erase the world from the time I was a very little kid.
Wishes, at least, are the easy pleasures of the poor.
Dreams are nothing more than wishes and a wish is just a dream you wish to come true.
Batman's got this whole cloaked 'man of mystery' thing around him and represents a wish fulfillment. He's more driven than Superman yet is also very human.
Dreams can come true.
There is a difference between wishing for a thing and being ready to receive it.
Sometimes your dreams come true, and it's a real drag.
I believe the universe conspires to give you everything you desire.
That was a surprise. I just had wished that Wil Wheaton was there. He was missing from the last show and it would have been nice if everyone could have been there.
