They told us not to wish in the first place, not to aspire, not to try; to be quiet, to play nice, to shoot low and aspire not at all. They are always wrong. Follow your dreams. Make your wishes. Create the future. And above all, believe in yourself.

J. Michael Straczynski

You can't aspire to have heightened senses, whereas you can aspire to tell the truth, every single second, and you can aspire to be dogged and just never let anything be enough, never give in, and never give up.

Deborah Ann Woll

Good girls like myself need subversion. Being solemn, I aspire to comedy. Being a novelist, I aspire to the musical. Being organized, I aspire to luminous chaos. Loving the power of grammar and the fine distinctions of language, I seek the part of the mind I didn't know was there, the part 'sheer,' 'no-manfathomed,' 'cliffs of fall.

Janet Burroway

Man may aspire to virtue, but he cannot reasonably aspire to truth.

Nicolas Chamfort

I don't aspire to be like other drivers - I aspire to be unique in my own way.

Lewis Hamilton

I don't aspire to direct like many actors. I would aspire most likely to do some writing, but I haven't had a chance to do that.

Stephen Root

I don't aspire to have high approval ratings. I aspire, in light of my two predecessors, to be the most honest governor I can be. I'd rather focus on honesty than popularity.

Pat Quinn

You should aspire to a level of personal excellence - to be the best you can be. You should aspire to have the richest life you can get in terms of fulfillment, happiness and peace.

Kimora Lee Simmons

We teach girls to shrink themselves, to make themselves smaller. We say to girls: 'You can have ambition, but not too much. You should aim to be successful, but not too successful. Otherwise, you will threaten the man.' Because I am female, I am expected to aspire to marriage. I am expected to make my life choices, always keeping in mind that marriage is the most important. Now, marriage can be a source of joy and love and mutual support, but why do we teach girls to aspire to marriage and we don't teach boys the same?

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

Broadway! Broad-way! I don't aspire to the middle. I aspire to the tip-tip-top of it all.

Billy Porter

We aspire to make artisanal tortillas on an industrial scale.

Steve Ells

When you're a little weird, you aspire to be normal; when you're very weird, you aspire to be recognized for it.

Neil Harbisson

I suppose what I aspire to do is to make it easy for the audience to connect with a story.

John Tiffany

If I watch 'The X Factor,' I know I'm never going to aspire to sing, so I don't mind if they're good or bad, but when I watch 'Bake Off,' because I aspire to be good at it, I find it easy to try and put myself in their position.

Jon Richardson

I don't aspire to write like Steve King. Sure, I admire his work, and I think he's a hell of a nice guy; we met shortly after my first Stoker win. I aspire to write like Jonathan Maberry.

Jonathan Maberry

I don't have a specific type of role that I aspire to play or aspire to act. I really like a challenge and I really like doing things that are different because if I had to do the same thing all the time, then I don't think I would be an actor.
