If I had known what it would be like to have it all... I might have been willing to settle for less.

I should've known
It was coming down to this.
I should've known
You would betray me but without the kiss.
I should've known
The kind of set-up it is.

I know I had everything, but not because I had it. I know because afterwards I had nothing else.

I've worked for everything I have, but I want have everything that I worked for. I want to have what I can get.

Had I known that the heart breaks slowly, dismantling itself into unrecognizable plots of misery... had I known yet I would have loved you, your brash and insolent beauty, your heavy comedic face and knowledge of sweet delights, but from a distance I would have left you whole and wholly for the delectation of those who wanted more and cared less.

I should have known earlier to always live like that.

If I had known they were going to do this, I would have become a shoemaker.

If I knew what I was so anxious about, I wouldn't be so anxious.

To say that I would have done otherwise had I wanted to is simply to say that I would have lived in a different universe had I been in a different universe.

But I didn't really mind it because I knew that it
takes getting everything you ever wanted and then losing it to know what
true freedom is.

If I had known I was going to live this long, I would have taken better care of myself.

If less was more, she had a great deal.

I think if I knew I was going to do this, I wouldn’t have dared to do it.

If I had plenty, I'd be content with what I have.
