I like a good beer. Of course, I'll drink a bad one too. Let no person thirst for lack of real ale! Thank god for long-necked bottles, the angel's remedy.
She's a good girl, crazy about Elvis, loves horses, and her boyfriend, too.
The music has to be affordable. It's the common man that keeps it going, and if you price it out of his realm, it becomes a thing of the elite.
When you kill somebody's little sister with a missile, he's going to hate you forever. And the next generation will hate you even more.
As we celebrate mediocrity, all the boys upstairs want to see. How much you'll pay for what you used to get for free.
Excuse me if I have/some place in my mind/where I go time to time.
I've learned one thing, and that's to quit worrying about stupid things. You have four years to be irresponsible here, relax. Work is for people with jobs. You'll never remember class time, but you'll remember the time you wasted hanging out with your friends. So stay out late. Go out with your friends on a Tuesday when you have a paper due on Wednesday. Spend money you don't have. Drink 'til sunrise. The work never ends, but college does...
Some grow young, some grow cold...

And the days went by like paper in the wind. Everything changed, then changed again. It's hard to find a friend. It's hard to find a friend.
If you're not getting older, you're dead.
God, it's so painful when something that's so close is still so far out of reach.
Music is probably the only real magic I have encountered in my life. There's not some trick involved with it. It's pure and it's real. It moves, it heals, it communicates and does all these incredible things.
Music really isn’t supposed to be perfect. It’s all about people relating to each other and doing something that’s really from the soul. It must come from the soul.
