That's coral!" she cried in astonishment. "We must be down in the deeps of the sea!"Well, wasn't that what you wanted?" said the trout. "I thought you wished you could see the sea!"I did," said Jane, looking very surprised. "But I never expected the wish to come true."Great oceans! Why bother to wish it then? I call that simply a waste of time. But come on! Mustn't be late for the party!

I make wishes, but she says never be afraid to take chances.

If I could grant wishes do you think I would be driving a cab?

I have enough patient to wait for the fulfillment of my wishes.

You must return to the fairy cave while children sleep. Fairies only exist if children believe in Fairyland. If you return after they wake from their dreams, you could remain frozen between two worlds for all eternity.

we wish you everything you wish yourself' Jurgen said.'What do you wish yourself?' Birgit asked.I felt silly 'I don't really have any specific wishes''a new old man perhaps?'

The problem with a wish list was what it told you about the person who wrote it. If it's honest, it's a rock-bottom, barebones, clear shot all the way to someone's soul.Hats can do the same thing.

You have to work for what you want.

If you are a writer May words twirl around your place If you are a dreamer, May visions placate your days with solaceIf you are a lover May fragrant freedom grace your daysIf you are a visionaryMay the hues of rainbow seep into your ways

I knew the power of a single wish, after all. Invisible and inevitable, like a butterfly that beats its wings in one corner of the globe and with that single action changes the weather halfway across the world.

If you follow your heart, you will find harmony.

Sincere wishes come true.

Ironically,_ she commented, __his will be the first time I__e ever done anything to please my father._ With a sympathetic murmur, Matthew gathered Daisy close against him. He knew her father as well as anyone, having become well acquainted with the man__ tempers, his self-absorption, his impossible standards. And yet he understood what it had required for Bowman to build a great fortune from scratch, the sacrifices he__ had to make. Bowman had discarded everything that would have gotten in the way of achieving his goals. Including closeness with his wife and children.

Someday he__l realize that._ He felt her smile against his skin. __ doubt it. But it__ nice of you to say so. You don__ have to be concerned on that account, you know. I reconciled myself to the way he was a long time ago._ Once again Matthew was taken unaware by the extent of the feelings she inspired in him, his own limitless desire to fill her with happiness. __hatever you need,_ he whispered, __hatever you want, I__l get it for you. Just tell me._ Daisy stretched comfortably, a pleasant shiver running through her limbs. She touched his lips with her fingers, tracing the smoothness. __ want to know what your five-dollar wish was for._ __s that all?_ He smiled beneath her exploring fingertips. __ wished you would find someone who wanted you as much as I did. But I knew it wouldn__ come true._ The candlelight slid over Daisy__ delicate features as she raised her head to look at him. __hy not?_ __ecause I knew no one could ever want you as much as I do._ Daisy levered herself farther over him until her hair tumbled in a dark curtain around them both. __hat was your wish?_ Matthew asked, combing his fingers through the fall of shimmering hair. __hat I could find the right man to marry._ Her tender smile stopped his heart. __nd then you appeared.

I know women are supposed to stand on their own and all. I get that. But every once in a while it doesn't hurt to wish for a fairy godmother, a little magic, and a happy ending.

Stop waiting and start working. Stop wishing and start walking.

All wishes are best granted metaphorically. Metaphors are much easier to see than the real thing.
