"All that's sacred comes from youth
dedications naive and true
with no power, and nothing to do
I still remember, why don't you?"
"Ransom paid the devil, he whispers pleasing words
Triumphant are the angels if they can get there first."
"I don't want to hear from those who know
They can buy but can't put on my clothes.""Darth Vader would say 'Impressive'."

My favourites change with my mood, and I have so many...the "classics" for me are:
"I don't wanna take what you can't give - I would rather starve than eat your bread"
"Can't buy what I want because it's free"
"I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a star...in somebaody else's sky, but why (etc..)"
And for some reason lately I'm hooked on Who You Are - I love "there's a little time before we leave"

Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.
