The Scarecrow wanted a brain, and the Tin Woodman wanted a heart. But neither one of them realized an important fact: the Wizard didn't give them anything. He really was a humbug, and made a show of giving them what they already had. For the Scarecrow already had a brain, and the Tin Woodman already had a heart. There were many instances prior to meeting the Wizard in which the presence of a brain and of a heart were proven respectively. For example, the Tin Woodman didn't want to hurt anybody or anything if he could help it. He deliberately tried not to step on ants. And the Scarecrow figured out that a deep ditch was too wide to be jumped individually, but not so wide as to keep the Cowardly Lion from leaping over, with each of the four friends on his back, one-by-one.
The Tin Woodman wanted a heart in both the book and the 1939 film versions of The Wizard of Oz. Ironically, he sought what he already had. Along the way to his meeting with the Wizard, the Tin Woodman dealt with many situations in ways that showed him already having the emotions, feelings, and sensitivities that came with having a heart. For example, he didn't like to hurt anyone or anybody if he could at all help it. So he tried assiduously not to step on ants.

According to the original book by author and Oz series originator Lyman Frank Baum [May 15, 1856-May 5, 1919], and the posthumous 1939 film version, the Tin Woodman wanted a heart. Ironically, he didn't realize that he already had what he sought. For there were many instances in which he showed himself to have a heart, long before the Wizard purportedly gave him one. For example, the Tin Woodman sought not to hurt anybody or anything if he could possibly help it. So he didn't want to step on ants. And he still felt heartbreak over the failure of his romance with the Pretty Munchkin Girl.
In the original book by author and Oz series originator Lyman Frank Baum [May 15, 1856-May 5, 1919], the Wizard said that he would help Dorothy, her pet dog Toto, the Tin Woodman, the Scarecrow, and the Cowardly Lion if they killed the Wicked Witch of the West for him. Dorothy was the one of the five who ended up killing the Witch. She threw a bucket of water at the Witch, who melted. Upon the return of the five to the Emerald City of Oz, the Wizard gave the Tin Woodman a heart made of silk and stuffed with sawdust, in the book. According to the posthumous 1939 film version, the Wizard gave the Tin Woodman a testimonial, which looked and ticked like a clock.
Dorothy and Toto wanted to go back home to Kansas. The Tin Woodman wanted a heart. The Scarecrow wanted a brain. The Cowardly Lion wanted courage. The residents of the Forest wanted to be rid of the Giant Spider. The residents of the Blue country of the Munchkins and of the Yellow country of the Winkies wanted to be rid of the Wicked Witches of the East and of the West, respectively. The Wicked Witch of the West wanted to have the Silver Shoes (Ruby Slippers) of the Wicked Witch of the East. The Winged Monkeys wanted to have the Golden Cap so that they'd have to fulfill no more commands and wishes of the headgear's wearer. And the Wizard of Oz wanted to be rid of the Wicked Witch of the West and to go back home to Omaha, Nebraska.

Dorothy's sidekicks were the Scarecrow, the Tinman, and the Cowardly Lion. They joined her on her journey to the Emerald City because they also wanted something from the Wizard (a brain, a heart, and courage respectively).

"I shall take the heart" is a quotation by the Tin Woodman in "The Wizard of Oz."Specifically, the Tin Woodman believes his heart to have been lost when his body parts were all replaced with tin prostheses. He plans to ask the Wizard for the heart that albeit unknowingly he already has in every action, feeling and thought. He states that his choice is a heart because "...brains do not make one happy, and happiness is the best thing in the world."
The character looking for a heart was the scarecrow, played by Ray Bolger.

Every character has a characteristic they want. The scarecrow wants a brain, the tin woodman wants a heart, the lion wanted courage. The scarecrow wanted brains to think intelligent thoughts while he comes up with all the ideas to get across obstacles. The tin woodman wants a heart to feel emotions but he already does. He cries every time someone wants to step on a bug. He also weeps when the Lion offers to kill something for Dorothy to eat. The lion wants courage to be well... courageous. He wants to be courageous but he already is by jumping across a deep ditch 6 times and scare off beasts with tiger heads and bear bodies.
Dorothy Gale has just ended her struggle with the apple trees. She is about to pick up two apples when she sees a tin foot. She realizes that the foot belongs to a tin man who is next to an oil can. She says, 'Why, it's a man! A man made out of tin!'When the tin man squeaks out, 'Oil can...oil can...', Dorothy says, 'Did you say something?' The tin man repeats, 'Oil can...', to which Dorothy responds, 'Oil can? Oh - oh, here it is! Where do you want to be oiled first?' The tin man directs her, 'My mouth - mouth!' And then the Tin Woodman is able to tell his story to Dorothy Gale, her pet dog Toto, and her friend the Scarecrow.
No. It was the Scarecrow who wanted a brain. The Tin Woodman believed himself to be without a heart. He had been in love with a pretty Munchkin girl, who had lived with an older woman who was afraid of losing the company and having to live all alone. The woman persuaded the Wicked Witch of the West to cast a spell on the Woodman. The Woodman's own axe turned on him, bit by bit depriving him of torso, limbs, and head. Each part was replaced by metal. But the Woodman showed himself to be compassionate, emotional, and sensitive many times before the bestowal of a silk sawdust-stuffed heart from the Wizard. For example, he tried not to be cruel and unkind. And he didn't want to step on ants.
