Desire, a strong feeling for something to happen

Three things are necessary for the salvation of man: to know what he ought to believe; to know what he ought to desire; and to know what he ought to do. - Thomas Aquinas

Nothing great is created suddenly, any more than a bunch of grapes or a fig. If you tell me that you desire a fig. I answer you that there must be time. Let it first blossom, then bear fruit, then ripen. - Epictetus

The key to success is to focus our conscious mind on things we desire not things we fear. - Brian Tracy
