"If music be the food of love
Sing on, sing on 'til I am filled with joy!
For then my listening soul you move
To pleasures that can never cloy."
~Henry Purcell

You know when you listen to a new song and all of a sudden one line just jumps out at you and you don't know why? This page is dedicated to my personal favorite lines. Some of them demonstrate creative genius; others were just too funny to go unrecognized...

     ~Yoko Kanno, 'Adieu'

*Savage Garden, 'Affirmation' (I believe the entire song is quote-worthy)

   escape from reality..."

   and the door for me..."
