The writer's greed is appalling. He wants, or seems to want, everything and practically everybody, in another sense, and at the same time, he needs no one at all.
James A. Baldwin
Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul.
John Muir
I haven't been to sleep for over a year. That's why I go to bed early. One needs more rest if one doesn't sleep.
Evelyn Waugh
One forgets words as one forgets names. One's vocabulary needs constant fertilizing or it will die.
Evelyn Waugh
A man of courage never needs weapons, but he may need bail.
Lewis Mumford
Nothing is unthinkable, nothing impossible to the balanced person, provided it comes out of the needs of life and is dedicated to life's further development.
Lewis Mumford
Sometimes - history needs a push.
Vladimir Lenin
What this country needs what every country needs occasionally is a good hard bloody war to revive the vice of patriotism on which its existence as a nation depends.
Ambrose Bierce
Nothing is more fairly distributed than common sense: no one thinks he needs more of it than he already has.
Rene Descartes
A President needs political understanding to run the government, but he may be elected without it.
Harry S. Truman
Anyone who cannot come to terms with his life while he is alive needs one hand to ward off a little his despair over his fate... but with his other hand he can note down what he sees among the ruins.
Franz Kafka
He who would be serene and pure needs but one thing, detachment.
Meister Eckhart
We are driven by five genetic needs: survival, love and belonging, power, freedom, and fun.
William Glasser
Everybody needs one essential friend.
William Glasser
Too many of us fail to fulfill our needs because we say no rather than yes, or perhaps later in life, yes when we should say no.
William Glasser
Remember, man does not live on bread alone: sometimes he needs a little buttering up.
John C. Maxwell
Personally, I rather look forward to a computer program winning the world chess championship. Humanity needs a lesson in humility.
Richard Dawkins
One of the oldest human needs is having someone to wonder where you are when you don't come home at night.
Margaret Mead
A woman one loves rarely suffices for all our needs, so we deceive her with another whom we do not love.
Marcel Proust
A friendship can weather most things and thrive in thin soil; but it needs a little mulch of letters and phone calls and small, silly presents every so often - just to save it from drying out completely.
Pam Brown
