	Open to Desire - Mark Epstein - Penguin Group (USA) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Desire is a teacher: When we immerse ourselves in it without guilt, shame or clinging, it can show us something special about our own minds that allows us to embrace life fully.
		While the tendency of desire to fragment, to split itself into lower and higher, instinctual and spiritual, or human and divine, is the subtext of the tale, desire’s ability to resolve these splits is the story’s essence.
		For desire, in its paradoxical nature, in its ability to simultaneously breach and maintain the space between lovers, in the way it both connects and separates, and in the manner in which it forces us to reconcile love and hate, is often as close as we come to liberation in our regular lives.

		A simple desire, as the one identified by common language, is therefore described as a ''first-order desire'' at this regard.
		Their lives are spread out over a rather long period, from the XVIIth to the XXth centuries, and that allows us to have a vision of evolution of the definition of freedom.
		Starting from their ideas, we could expose their own conception of freedom, which led us to call into question our own definitions and perceptions of freedom.

	Introduction to Jacques Lacan, Module on Desire
		Desire, in other words, has little to do with material sexuality for Lacan; it is caught up, rather, in social structures and strictures, in the fantasy version of reality that forever dominated our lives after our entrance into language.
		It is that lack at the heart of desire that ensures we continue to desire.
		To come too close to our object of desire threatens to uncover the lack that is, in fact, necessary for our desire to persist, so that, ultimately, desire is most interested not in fully attaining the object of desire but in keeping our distance, thus allowing desire to persist.

	Desire: Gift of the Spirit
		Desire is intimately associated with our capacity to love, hence has a particular association with erotic power, and a feeling of attraction toward or aversions from objects, people, and ideas.
		One’s deepest desire is to be a mother and be pregnant; the other lives to make a contribution to society and is presently studying to be a pediatrician.
		At the heart of rape lies the desire to gain power over another human being and may be used to meet a number of needs that have little to do with real sexual desire, much less love.

	mimetic desire
		The desire that the subject has for the object is nothing else but the desire he has for the prestige that he attributes to the one who possesses the object (or who [begins to] desire the object at the same time as him).
		The concept of homosocial desire alludes linguistically to homosexual practices, but Sedgwick warns that it should not be thought of as synonymous with them; homosexual behavior is but one position along the continuum of social practices that a theory of homosocial desire seeks to situate.
		Sedgwick identifies the strategies of homosocial desire as "erotic triangles," relationships in which there is rivalry between two active members (often, but not exclusively, two males) for the attentions and/or affections of a "beloved" third.

		The identity of self and its specific set of desires, in particular, are not created by oneself, as is suggested by the myth of solipsism, but are determined by the social-linguistic matrix of relations prescribed by the system of signifiers.
		Floating signifiers are words that have no essential meaning of their own, but acquire their meaning through linkage to a relational matrix unified by a particular ideology.
		Hitchcock's desire is the desire for a woman, Eve, to have a specific sort of desire.

	Ross, "The Limits of Rivalry" (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		She rejects the possibility for the cultural transformation of desire and instead pleads for a complacent acceptance of desire as it is patterned by early nineteenth-century ideology.
		Because they are feminized havens, they are not strong enough to protect their inhabitants from the assault of masculine conquest, whose object is to constrain the feminine in marginal havens, lest it alter radically the course of desire itself.
		He constructs a myth of self-possessing desire, of desire that moves beyond the mother, that moves beyond shared space, that moves deeper and deeper into a self that is miraculously free of influence, that is itself influential.

	OFCGJ: Newsletter Article: Women and Desire: Beyond Wanting to Be Wanted
		That women might be driven by the desire to be desirable, rather than by the desire to be known and loved, became the background music for much that I heard about female desire both in and out of psychotherapy for the next ten years.
		The compulsion to be desired and desirable undermines self-direction, self-confidence, and self-determination in women from adolescence through old age, in all our roles, from daughter to mother, from lover to wife, from student to worker or leader, whether or not the affliction is conscious.
		Anne's compulsion to be desirable begins with the fundamental belief that power -- the right, capacity, or authority to act or influence others on her behalf -- is not legitimately hers but resides in the eye of the beholder.

	Dadmanly: After Whose Desire?
		Two years ago, there was a moment when the Americans might have molded Iraq after their own desire, for better or worse.
		The country has long since hardened into its own shape, and whether it holds together or breaks into pieces is largely up to the Iraqis who now have it in their hands.
		The entire point of this exercise is for Iraqis to fulfill their own desires, for their own rule, of their own government.

		"Visting Desire" is a homemovie about the possible meeting the impossible--a low rent version of "Last Tango in Paris." Beth B places her camera in front of a bed and creates a temporary autonomous zone for twelve strangers.
		Suddenly, the deterritorialized space of desire became a space of re-enactment of self-definition, communication-as-definition and not as desire.
		The scene was composed of a blindfolded transexual and a man with a whip, who never spoke--learning and improvising their desire without ostensive language games.

	Decreased Desire
		Sexual desire, or libido, is a complex interaction between the physical and emotional parts of our being, an inner sense or drive that leads people to seek out and participate in sexual behavior.

	The Seattle Times: Gardening: Author finds strength in garden's "desire paths"
		She recounts the rebuilding of her garden and her life in "Paths of Desire" (Scribner, $12 paperback), a celebration of the restorative powers of dirt, trowels and pruning shears.
		Browning believes that "desire paths" are the ways we move from one place to another.
		Her own desire paths are the meandering, tangible path in her renewed garden and her metaphorical path — often equally indirect — from despair to joy.

	Allen Varney: Desire Box (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		It is the nature of desire not to be satisfied, and most men live only for the gratification of it.
		To rationalize their conviction, targets of the enchantment usually develop strategies of greater or lesser plausibility.
		As a person comes to believe in the imminent fulfillment of his or her desire, a new desire inevitably arises to replace it.

		Meurent exhibited paintings at the Salon, she was a member of the distinguished Societe des Artistes Francais, and she did not die until 1928 at the age of 83.
		Lipton's pursuit of the life of Meurent spawned other stories, feelings, schemes, obsessions and memories, and their interwoven record constitutes a pioneering attempt to fashion a counter- or post-academic serf in print.
		Letting a model tell her own story is one way of exposing the power relations inscribed in much of the avant-garde and academic art of the period.

		In other words, we not only have to be able to go against what the world demands, but also, and almost more importantly, we have to be able to go against our own personal intentions, our very own desires.
		This movement against the current is not to be seen as a fight against something, but rather it is the carry the boat forward and the means to move from our limited personal ideas of reality into the natural flow of reality itself.

	Of True Resignation - or Dying to SELF; Jacob Boehme; 1622
		Which Desire immediately got the Dominion in Nature; and so Lucifer stuck fast in the wrathful Source of Fire, and that Fire became manifest in the Spirit of his Will, whereby the Creature in its Desire became an Enemy to the Love and Meekness of God.
		The human Angelical Desire standeth in the Center of the eternal Nature which is without Beginning; and wherever it kindleth itself, whether in Good or Evil, it accomplisheth its Work in that.
		And though all the Devils should press hard upon it, and enter with their Desire into the fleshly Mind, yet the Will of the Soul must stand still and hide itself in the Death of Christ, willing and desiring nothing but the Mercy of God.

		It isn't God who failed me, but my own lack of trust in him and my own lack of trust in me to have the strength--even with his help--to beat this thing.
		Then I repeated the part about desire because I know that if I just desire it enough, the rest will be made much easier.
		So our own desire to be trusted is merely a reflection of God's own desire to be trusted.

		Erik Benson: trapped by your own desire to stay Next time you think you're trapped somewhere, or wish you were somewhere else, just tell yourself that the only reason that you're trapped is because you want to stay.
		But I think you're right that the logic of "it's better to stay with something bad than have nothing at all" is one of the main reasons people desire to stay in their traps.
		If you don't take it, you are trapped by your own desire to stay.

		Their involvement, and certainly their military involvement, I think, reflected their own desire for liberty, their own desire for freedom, not necessarily a desire to secure the political freedom of their owners or to secure the political domination of the American colonies by the British.
		And in this sense, I think that the participation of enslaved people and free African Americans in the War for Independence was a direct statement of the ways in which they believed they could best secure their own liberty and their own freedom.
		For African Americans, that was the top priority: their own freedom.

	Decreased Sexual Desire - Its Many Causes
		Sexual desire, or libido as it is sometimes called, is influenced by our own health, environmental circumstances and the behavior of our partner and others.
		If the partner loses desire due to physical fatigue, medications or any reasons, a woman may unconsciously suppress her own desire.
		In spite of all the possible causes that can affect sexual desire, the most frequent cause of libido decrease among women is her non-sexual relationship with her partner.
