Whats your favourite lyrics quote of all time?

Question

Mine is bruce springsteen's Junglelans "Outside the streets on fire in a real death waltz
Between flesh and whats fantasy and the poets down here
Dont write nothing at all, they just stand back and let it all be
And in the quick of the night they reach for their moment
And try to make an honest stand but they wind up wounded, not even dead
Tonight in jungleland"

Answer 1

Today- by Smashing Pumpkins

Today is the greatest
Day I ’ve ever kown
Can’t live for tomorrow
Tomorrow’s much too long
I burn my eyes out
Before I get out

I wanted more
Than life could ever grant

Answer 2

From Spreading the Disease by Queensryche

"...Religion and sex are powerplays
Manipulate the people for the money they pay
Selling skin, selling God
The numbers look the same on their credit cards
Politicians say no to drugs
While we pay for wars in South America

Fighting fire with empty words
While the banks get fat
And the poor stay poor
And the rich get rich
And the cops get paid
To look away
As the one percent rules America..."

Answer 3

I know I'm going to get thumbed down by the Doherty haters for this, but;

"If you've lost your faith in love and music then the end won't be long."

Answer 4

two songs by Fiona Apple (she's crafty w/ the lyrics, lol). I couldn't decide:


You'll say you understand
but you don't understand
you'll say you'd never give up
seeing eye to eye
but never is a promise
and you can't afford to lie

AND


And when the crowd becomes your burden
And you've early closed your curtains
I'll wait by the backstage door While you try to find
The lines to speak your mind
And pry it open, hoping for an encore
And if it gets too late
For me to wait
For you to find you love me, and tell me so
It's ok, don't need to say it.
