“She never stumbles, she's got no place to fall. She's nobody's child, the law can't touch her at all.”

“She's a hypnotist collector; you are a walking antique...”

“It's like my whole life never happened,When I see you, it's as if I never had a thought.I know this dream, it might be crazy,But it's the only one I've got.”

“When you asked me how I was doing, was that some kind of joke”

“I gave her my heart but she wanted my soul...”

“She knows there's no success like failure, and that failure's no success at all.”

“aretha with no goals, eternally single & one step soft of heaven/ let it be understood that she owns this melody along with her emotional diplomats & her earth & her musical secrets”
