Requests give direction to love, but demands stop the flow of love.
Gary Chapman
Image
Were all the worshippers of the gold calf to memorialize me and request a restoration of the deposits I would cut my right hand from my body before I would do such an act. The gold calf may be worshipped by others but as for myself I serve the Lord.
Andrew Jackson
Image
If two friends ask you to judge a dispute, don't accept, because you will lose one friend on the other hand, if two strangers come with the same request, accept because you will gain one friend.
Saint Augustine
Image
I request reason for your golden rule and ask the why and wherefore of your ten commandments.
Anton Szandor LaVey
Image
I am the first model in the history of Victoria's Secret shows who walked the show wearing her TWA. Hence, I felt very special when I actually got the request to walk the show wearing my TWA.
Maria Borges

We can never know God as it is our privilege to know Him by brief repetitions that are requests for personal favors, and nothing more.

I'm not a real programmer. I throw together things until it works then I move on. The real programmers will say Yeah it works but you're leaking memory everywhere. Perhaps we should fix that. I'll just restart Apache every 10 requests.
Rasmus Lerdorf
Image
No, I’m not one (of those) people who votes for something then writes to the government to ask them to send us money. I did not request any stimulus money.
Paul Ryan

The Ideal Man should talk to us as if we were goddesses, and treat us as if we were children. He should refuse all our serious requests, and gratify every one of our whims. He should encourage us to have caprices, and forbid us to have missions. He should always say much more than he means, and always mean much more than he says.
Oscar Wilde
Image
Cold prayers shall never have any warm answers. God will suit His returns to our requests. Lifeless, services shall have lifeless answers. When men are dull, God will be dumb.
Thomas Brooks
Image
Human beings will continue to deceive and overpower one another. Basically, everyone exists in the very nature of suffering, so to abuse or mistreat each other is futile. The foundation of all spiritual practice is love. That you practice this well is my only request.
Dalai Lama
Image
I played with [Dwight Eisenhower] on the day after I won the Masters at his request. We became everlasting friends. I was with him the day before he died at Walter Reed.
Arnold Palmer
Image
Governors being accustomed to hear of more crimes than they can punish, and more wrongs than they can redress, set themselves at ease by indiscriminate negligence, and presently forget the request when they lose sight of the petitioner.
Samuel Johnson
Image
At the request of my Japanese colleagues, in 2000 we revisited the possibility of signing a peace treaty based on the 1956 agreement.
Vladimir Putin

My 2005 calendar we actually did a shoot in Lake Las Vegas. Since I had requests do some swimwear and athletic shots we tried them and they came out good so we inserted them into the new calendar.

Inasmuch as I am a spiritual man, I do believe in God - I think that He created an order for the world I believe that, in constantly bombarding Him with requests for miracles, we're also asking that He unravel the fabric of the world. A world of continuous miracles would be a cartoon, not a world.
Douglas Coupland
Image
Our prayers are granted as soon as we have prayed, even though the process of fulfilling our requests has not yet begun.
Thomas Goodwin

You get weird, funny requests on Twitter. With our fan club, I was seeing a lot of fans were having some issue with the way the fan club tickets were being handled in one of the shows. So I was able to correspond with that fan, and be like, 'Listen, we'll be on it.'
Luke Bryan
Image
all his prayers of the past had been simple concrete requests: God, give me a bicycle, a knife with seven blades, a box of oil paints. Only how, how, could you say something so indefinite, so meaningless as this: God, let me be loved.
Truman Capote
Image
Unsolicited surprise requests from strangers are essentially guaranteed to be met with a negative response.
Terence Tao
Image
Now that I have confirmed that the Vikings have been seeking to trade me, I have asked for permission to speak to the interested teams. The Vikings have denied my request. If a trade does not happen, then I am asking the Vikings to terminate my contract as soon as possible.
Daunte Culpepper
Image
In the early years, I was able to accommodate most of the requests and favors that came my way, but as the requests multiplied, I had to make tough choices because the numbers were more than I could handle.
LaVell Edwards
Image
Some people fold after making one timid request. They quit too soon. Keep asking until you find the answers. In sales there are usually four or five no's before you get a yes.
Jack Canfield
Image
With the requests of some he complied, and has published a discourse, delivered before the Society for recovering drowned persons, which may be justly pronounced one of the most beautiful and interesting sermons in the English language.
