“Every single dayI find it hard to sayI could be yours aloneYou will see somedayThat all along the wayI was yours to hold.”

“I wanna be inside your heavenTake me to the place you cry fromWhere the storm blows your wayI wanna be the earth that holds youEvery bit of air you're breathin' inA soothin' windI wanna be inside your heaven”

“It's hard to maintain a reputation for being grim and mysterious when you're accompanied by a brightly clad young thing, skipping merrily along at your side, holding your hand, and smiling sweetly on one and all.”

“Do not see others as your example, as that can hold you back. First, find your own inner calling and follow that.”

“It seems to me that every dayIs an audition.”

“I never knew a building could hold so much inside.. . . I saw my town as if I had just arrived. It was as if I was waking up. You see houses and buildings every day, and you walk by them on your way to something else, and you hardly see. You hardly notice they're even there, mostly because there's something else going on right in front of your face. But when the town itself becomes the thing that is going on right in front of your face, it all changes, and you're not just looking at a house but at what's happened in that house before you were born.”
