I'd like to see one person - just one - who would own up to having been a coward.

I think you have to pay for love with bitter tears.

Every damn fool thing you do in this life you pay for.

When he takes me in his arms, and speaks to me softly, I see the world through rose-colored glasses.

I wouldn't mind at all coming back to earth after my death.

Drugs are a carnival in hell.

I want to die young. I think it's awful to get old, and sickness is ugly.

People say that I could sing the phone book and make it sound good.
