I always wanted to be tall, but I'm not, OK?
‐‐ Cheryl Ladd
I always wanted to be that guy who pushed the envelope in all kind of ways and tried something new. When I keep that rule going, it always takes me to a new place. There are times when I fail miserably, but I always find myself knowing one more thing better, doing one more thing that I never did before.
‐‐ Terry Crews
I always wanted to be the best and to get the most out of myself.
‐‐ Sidney Crosby
I always wanted to be the best I could be at whatever I did. I didn't want to be the number one golfer in the world. I just wanted to be as good as I could be. I work hard, I push myself hard, and I probably even expect too much of myself.
‐‐ Greg Norman
I always wanted to be the outlaw. And that's to a certain extent how I've lived.
‐‐ James Frey
I always wanted to be the person to whom people looked forward to give opportunities. As opposed to always being the person who wants to work with others and who is always the backup: where it's like, 'If nothing works out then OK, let's get this person.'
‐‐ Kangana Ranaut
I always wanted to be the pretty girl, but I thought I wasn't. When I started acting and getting pretty girl roles, I felt like I was just pretending, and nobody saw I was just this big nerd.
‐‐ Heather Graham
I always wanted to be the underdog. For me, as a portrait photographer, it's the kiss of death to become well known. I did my best work when no one knew who I was. People weren't threatened by me because they didn't think I was a big deal.
‐‐ Platon
I always wanted to be wealthy. I did.
‐‐ Carl Lewis

‐‐ Cameron Russell
I always wanted to create a site that was sports and pop culture. '30 for 30' had a big impact because I loved how that was about finding, empowering and working with these incredible directors, and I thought the same thing could work for writers.
‐‐ Bill Simmons
I always wanted to create this community that would come and tell their own story, shoot it - and watch them. The idea is to not have one entity who creates the work, the project, and another entity who consumes it; the idea is people create their own work, like somebody cultivating his garden.
‐‐ Michel Gondry
I always wanted to design for films.
‐‐ Ken Adam
I always wanted to devote a certain part of my life to dance - my true being is to be a dancer.
‐‐ Nita Ambani
I always wanted to direct. I always saw myself as a director. I know that I've definitely found what I should be doing with my life. In my life, as far as my career goes, I always felt, as an actor, that it was something that would just be a temporary thing that would get me to what I wanted to do next. That's what my acting did.
‐‐ Steve Antin
I always wanted to do a baseball book; I love baseball. The problem is that a very large part of my following is in non-baseball playing countries.

‐‐ Ryan Gosling
I always wanted to do a Disney movie.
‐‐ Patrick Warburton
I always wanted to do a family show.

‐‐ Tom Folsom
I always wanted to do a Western.
‐‐ Pierce Brosnan
I always wanted to do an action movie, not particularly 'Bond.'
‐‐ Marc Forster
I always wanted to do an animated movie. I find it to be incredibly liberating as a way of telling a story.
‐‐ Gore Verbinski

‐‐ Imran Amed
I always wanted to do films. I'd gone to New York early in 1976 and did a lot of theater, but I really wanted to chase the paths of people like Pacino and Lemmon and those guys. Alan Arkin. Film was where I wanted to go.
‐‐ Jeff Daniels
I always wanted to do Restoration comedy. It seems like so much fun.
‐‐ Mark Gatiss
I always wanted to do some sort of action film - even a superhero movie - and when 'Lucy' came out, I was like, 'That's what I want to do.'
‐‐ Sarah Snook
I always wanted to do something completely different.
‐‐ Gary Wright
I always wanted to do something creative, but as much as I'm creative, it's in a really hard-core, right-brained way. For me, painting doesn't do it for me. There's no constraint.
‐‐ Joshua Prince-Ramus
I always wanted to entertain. When I was little, I would sing in front of the mirror with a hairbrush or my sisters and I would make shows. I always wanted to be on TV.
‐‐ Lacey Chabert
I always wanted to entertain. When I was six, a scrawny, scrawny kid, I'd get in my red speedo and do muscle moves. I actually thought I was muscular. I didn't know everyone was laughing at me.
‐‐ Ryan Gosling
I always wanted to experience what performance would be like without the fourth wall, so I formed a company in Australia, and we did avant-garde theater, playing with gender norms, conversations about race - we just had a box of issues that we wanted to subvert with our stories, with dance.
‐‐ DeObia Oparei
I always wanted to film 'Biggest Loser' in Hawaii. We could call it, 'Come on I wanna weigh you.'
‐‐ Caroline Rhea
I always wanted to find my voice and claim my tone, but I was doing it through the steps of being a TV writer. I had the executive producer title. I was running the room.
‐‐ Jill Soloway
I always wanted to find oil. It was always an irresistible calling.
‐‐ Harold Hamm
I always wanted to fire rays out of my fingertips.

‐‐ Luke Evans
I always wanted to get into rock music so I could cover up my real personality, change my voice, and create a false self to hide behind.
‐‐ Ariel Pink
I always wanted to get into the horror genre. I like scary movies. I want to go to the fan shows and sign posters with my head hanging by a thread like a B-movie actress.
‐‐ Illeana Douglas
I always wanted to get married with just candles! I think candlelight is the most beautiful light there is and there's something very spiritual about it.
‐‐ Nicole Kidman
I always wanted to get out of L.A., but time passes, and you find excuses to stay.
‐‐ Robin Wright
I always wanted to get out of Tokyo and in 1977, New York seemed like the most interesting place to visit. I didn't intend to live here- I just wanted to get out and see what was happening. I just happened to stay here then.
‐‐ Ikue Mori
I always wanted to go against hat grain because it was too restricting.
‐‐ Donna Mills
I always wanted to go into acting.
‐‐ Rupert Grint

I always wanted to go into the military or something like that - my whole family, all my friends are either Air Force, Navy, or Marines.
‐‐ RJ Mitte
