Quote · 1843

“If I were to wish for anything, I should not wish for wealth and power, but for the passionate sense of the potential, for the eye which, ever young and ardent, sees the possible. Pleasure disappoints, possibility never. And what wine is so sparkling, what so fragrant, what so intoxicating, as possibility!”

Soren Kierkegaard

Quote · 1603

“I am giddy; expectation whirls me round. Th' imaginary relish is so sweet That it enchants my sense.”

William Shakespeare

Quote · 1781

“The great source of pleasure is variety. Uniformity must tire at last, though it be uniformity of excellence. We love to expect; and when expectation is disappointed or gratified, we want to be again expecting.”

Samuel Johnson
