In this page I'm gonna put quotes and lyrics( as well as quotes from lyrics). I think quotes are great because when you read them it makes you think about them. I especially like song lyrics because there are many song lyrics that are great and people usually don't notice them. That's why I am going to start with a really great song lyric, check it out...



Bon Jovi - "Always"

This Romeo is bleeding
But you can't see his blood
It's nothing but some feelings
That this old dog kicked up
 
It's been raining since you left me
Now I'm drowning in the flood
You see I've always been a fighter
But without you, I give up
 
Now, I can't sing a love song
Like the way it's meant to be
Well, I guess I'm not that good anymore
But baby, that's just me
 
Yeah, I will love you baby -- always
And I'll be there forever and a day -- always
I'll be there 'til the stars don't shine
'Til the heavens burst and the words don't rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you -- always
 
Now your pictures that you left behind
Are just memories of a different life
Some that made us laugh, some that made us cry
One that made you have to say goodbye
 
What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair
To touch your lips, to hold you near
When you say your prayers
Try to understand, I've made mistakes,
I'm just a man
 
When he holds you close, when he pulls you near
When he says the words you've been needing to hear
I'll wish I was him, cause those words are mine
To say to you 'til the end of time
 
Yeah, I will love you baby -- always
And I'll be there forever and a day -- always
If you told me to cry for you, I could
If you told me to die for you, I would
Take a look at my face
There's no price I won't pay
To say these words to you
 
Well, there ain't no luck in these loaded dice
But baby if you give me just one more try
We can pack up our old dreams and our old lives
We'll find a place where the sun still shines
 
Yeah, I will love you baby -- always
And I'll be there forever and a day -- always
I'll be there 'til the stars don't shine
'Til the heavens burst
And the words don't rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you -- always


"To the world you might be just one person, but to one person you might be the world" - Taylor Hanson ( Thanx to my friend Adri for this quote, it's awesome)

"Traveling down this road watching the signs as I go, I think I'll follow the sun. Isn't everyone just traveling down their own road watching the signs as they go? I think I'll follow my heart, it's a very good place to start"-"Sky fits Heaven" by Madonna

"Heaven isn't too far away, closer to it every day, no matter what your friends might say" - "Heaven" by Warrant

"So here we are face to face and heart to heart. I want you to know we will never be apart. Now I believe that wishes can come true 'cause I see in my whole world I see only you" - "When I look into your eyes" by Firehouse


Baz Luhrman - "Everybody's Free ( To wear sunscreen)

Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of '99...Wear sunscreen

If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it.  The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists, whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience.  I will dispense this advice now.

Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth; oh nevermind; you will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded.  But trust me, in 20 years you'll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can't grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked...You're not as fat as you imagine.

Don't worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum.  The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind; the kind that blindside you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday.

Do one thing everyday that scares you

Sing

Don't be reckless with other people's hearts, don't put up with people who are reckless with yours.

Floss

Don't waste your time on  jealousy; sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind...the race is long, and in the end it's only with yourself.

Remember the compliments you receive, forget the insults; if you succeed in doing this, tell me how.

Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements.

Stretch

Don't feel guilty if you don't know what to do with your life...the most interesting people I know didn't know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year olds I know still don't.

Get plenty of calcium

Be kind to your knees, you'll miss them when they're gone.

Maybe you'll marry, maybe you won't, maybe you'll have children, maybe you won't, maybe you'll divorce at 40, maybe you'll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary...what ever you do, don't congratulate yourself too much or berate yourself either - your choices are half chance, so are everybody else's.

Enjoy your body, use it every way you can...don't be afraid of it, or what other people think of it, it's the greatest instrument you'll ever own.

Dance...even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room.

Read the directions, even if you don't follow them.

Do NOT read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly.

49 second break in speech -- Quindon singing

Get to know your parents, you'll never know when they'll be gone for good.  Be nice to your siblings; they are the best link to your past and the people most likely to stick with you in the future.

Understand that friends come and go, but for the precious few you should hold on.   Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography in lifestyle because the older you get, the more you need the people you knew when you were young.

Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard; live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.

Travel.

Accept certain inalienable truths, price will rise, politicians will philander, you too will get old, and when you do you'll fantasize that when you were young prices were reasonable, politicians were noble and children respected their elders.

Respect your elders.

Don't expect anyone else to support you.  Maybe you have a trust fund, maybe you have a wealthy spouse; but you never know when either one might run out.

Don't mess too much with your hair, or by the time it's 40, it will look 85.

Be careful who advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it.  Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

But trust me on the sunscreen...



"You're so beautiful it hurts to see you" - Jordan Catalano, My So-Called Life

"Sweet Dreams are made of these. Who am I to disagree? I've traleved the world and the seven seas, everybody's looking for something" - "Sweet dreams( are made of these)" by Eurythmics

"These foolish games are tearing me apart, and your thoughtless words are breaking my heart, you're breaking my heart" - "Foolish Games" by Jewel

"You are the reason, you are the reason I wake every day and sleep through the night. You are the reason, the reason" - "The reason" by Celine Dion

"Don't speak, I know just what you're saying, so please stop explaining. Don't tell me 'cause it hurts. Don't speak, I know what you're thinking, I don't need your reasons, don't tell me 'cause it hurts" - "Don't speak" by No Doubt


Bryan Adams - "Every thing I do ( I do it for you)

Look into my eyes - you will see
What you mean to me
Search your heart - search your soul
And when you find me there you'll search no more

Don't tell me it's not worth tryin' for
You can't tell me it's not worth dyin' for
You know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you

Look into my heart - you will find
There's nothin' there to hide
Take me as I am - take my life
I would give it all - I would sacrifice

Don't tell me it's not worth fightin' for
I can't help it - there's nothin' I want more
You know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you

There's no love - like your love
And no other - could give more love
There's nowhere - unless you're there
All the time - all the way

Oh - you can't tell me it's not worth tryin' for
I can't help it - there's nothin' I want more
I would fight for you - I'd lie for you
Walk the wire for you - yeah I'd die for you

You know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you


Well, that's it for now, I'll put more quotes as I can. Hope you liked the ones I have up now.
