Bore, n. A person who talks when you wish him to listen.
I really haven't had that exciting of a life. There are a lot of things I wish I would have done, instead of just sitting around and complaining about having a boring life. So I pretty much like to make it up. I'd rather tell a story about somebody else.
I shall never be a heretic; I may err in dispute, but I do not wish to decide anything finally; on the other hand, I am not bound by the opinions of men.
I wish I were braver, although I try.
My legs are nice, my lips are shapely, and my breasts are pretty. They popped up when I was 11 and they weren't small then. I was teased, but now those kids wish they had what I have!

My fiancee's brother-in-law was recently paralysed in an accident and it really brought home the fact that thousands of young people live with spinal injuries. It's an issue I wish had more coverage.
I'm a shopaholic. I really am. I can't help myself. I do go into, browse, and purchase from my own shops, too, although the CEOs who run my businesses wish I didn't.
Sometimes overturning brutal regimes takes time and costs lives. I wish it weren't so. I really, really do.
We writers, as we work our way deeper into our craft, learn to drop more and more personal clues. Like burglars who secretly wish to be caught, we leave our fingerprints on broken locks, our voiceprints in bugged rooms, our footprints in the wet concrete.
I wish it were simply a nightmare, but I think that any reasonable person watching American politics would come to the conclusion that a second Bush administration would in fact incorporate a more radicalized version of what we've seen in the first administration.
It is the instinctive wish of most American businesspeople, even those unlikely to be directly affected, that General Motors not go bankrupt.
But I wanted marriage for myself. I was not calculating about it. I wish I was more calculating.
I wish I was a cool guy and could drink coffee black, but I put almond milk and raw cane sugar in it.
I wish they'd build a ski jump at the Grand Canyon; it'd be fantastic.
I believe totally in a Capitalist System, I only wish that someone would try it.
I wish being a beekeeper, which I am, gave you a free pass on the carbon footprint, but it doesn't.
