Imagination is more important than knowledge.

One does not leave a convivial party before closing time.

I've wanted one thing in my life. I don't want to be that girl that gets that one thing then complains.

The world don't need any more songs... As a matter of fact, if nobody wrote any songs from this day on, the world ain't gonna suffer for it... There's enough songs for people to listen to, if they want to listen to songs. For every man, woman and child on earth, they could be sent, probably, each of them, a hundred songs, and never be repeated... Unless someone's gonna come along with a pure heart and has something to say. That's a different story.
