Quotes About Desire

Let every emotion be capable of becoming an intoxication to you. If what you eat fails to make you drunk, it is because you are not hungry enough.

~ Andre Maurois
Sí, odio todo esto, todo eso, todo. Y lo odio porque lucho por conseguirlo, unas veces puedo vencer, otras no. Por eso lo odio, porque lucho por su compañía. Lo odio porque odiar es querer y aprender a amar. ¿Me entienden? Lo odio, porque no he aprendido a amar, y necesito de eso. Por eso, odio a todo el mundo, no dejo de odiar a nadie, a nada... a nada, a nadie, ¡sin excepción!.
~ Andrés Caicedo
Odiar es querer sin amar. Querer es luchar por aquello que se desea y odiar es no poder alcanzar por lo que se lucha. Amar es desear todo, luchar por todo, y aún así, seguir con el heroísmo de continuar amando.
~ Andrés Caicedo

Peyton had been considering little else since leaving Winchester. He hated the thought of his arrangement with Carrie ending. He couldn't imagine her going off on her own, unprotected and vulnerable. What's more, the idea of another man holding Carrie in his arms, kissing her … Peyton felt a vein begin to throb in his neck. Unacceptable!
~ Andrea Boeshaar
When the line of incoming guests ended, Peyton put his arm around Carrie's waist. She looked enchanting tonight with her reddish-brown tresses pulled back off her face save for the ringlets that brushed against her bare shoulders. Her skin glowed with softness, and Peyton longed to kiss his way down her neck and across her collarbone.

The will to domination is a ravenous beast. There are never enough warm bodies to satiate its monstrous hunger.

~ Andrea Dworkin
It was 2:00 p.m., too early for wine but not for chocolate.
