“Desire is what lends power to thought, it is that element that separates a wish or a day dream into reality, if properly directed.”

“There are elements of reality in every dream, and elements of fantasy in every reality.”

“Each of us has immense potential to achieve what we desire, unless you enliven and enlighten your life with inspiration, bring your dreams into reality through the power of desire you will never shine as bright as your potential.”

“Dreams have the power to make real what the heart desires.”

“There was human goodness in the world, she thought-all caught up with desires and dreams, regrets and bitterness, resentments and power, but it was there.”

“But sex as a physical act is merely athletics, a momentary relief. What it needs to be powerful is desire, and the strongest element of desire is longing. It's in the work. Desider-, sidus: from the stars. The longing that reaches beyond space and time.”
