"What you wish to be true is all that matters, regardless of the facts."

"If a man could half his wishes he would double his Troubles."

"Be careful what you wish for, you may receive it."

"If Wishes were Horses, Beggars would ride."

"But there is little gain to be had from wishes, the last attempt at a solution for the weak and the lazy."

"Man wants but little here below Nor wants that little long," Tis not with me exactly so; But tis so in the song. My wants are many, and, if told, Would muster many a score; And were each wish a mint of gold, I still should long for more."

"If your heart is in your dream No request is too extreme When you wish upon a star As dreamers do Fate is kind She brings to those who love The sweet fulfillment of their secret longing. Like a bolt out of the blue Fate steps in and sees you through When you wish upon a star Your dreams come true."

"Wishing, of all employments is the worst."

"Proud, proud is to hear it all yeah yeah Proud ah proud, proud is to watch us fall yeah yeah Make a wish, make a succotash wish You live the pompous life Throw kisses all the time Make wishes, dont break mine Make a wish, make a succotash wish You live the pompous life Throw kisses all the time Dont break mine, dont break mine Cold fire used to inspire all not now These are tired, maybe theyll find their niche Or resort to wish"
