Im never gonna make it without you — Jim Steinman

"The sea is whipping the sky The sky is whipping the sea You can hide away forever from the storm But youll never hide away from me."

"Let me show you how to drive me crazy, Let me show you how to make me feel so good, Let me show you how to take me to the edge of the stars and back again. Youve gotta show me how to drive you crazy, Youve gotta show me all the things you wanna happen to you, Weve gotta tell each other everything, we always wanted someone to do."

"I know just how to fake it And I know just how to scheme I know just when to face the truth And then I know just when to dream. And I know just where to touch you And I know just what to prove I know when to pull you closer And I know when to let you loose. And I know the night is fading And I know the times gonna fly And Im never gonna tell you everything I gotta tell you But I know Ive got to give it a try. And I know the roads to riches And I know the ways to fame I know all the rules and then I know how to breakem And then I always know the name of the game But I dont know how to leave you And Ill never let you fall And I dont know how you do it Making love out of nothing at all."

"Its all we ever wanted And all well ever need And now its slipping through our fingers Faster than the speed of night."

"I have travelled across the universe through the years to find her. Sometimes going all the way is just a start..."

"Ive been called over the top. How silly. If you dont go over the top, you cant see whats on the other side."

"At one point a heated discussion arose over the possible interpretation of Lolita as a grandiose metaphor of the classic Europeans hopeless love for young, seductive, barbaric America. In his afterword to the novel Nabokov himself mentions this as the naive theory of one of the publishers who turned the book down. And although there cant be the slightest doubt that Nabokov did not mean to limit Lolita to that interpretation, there is no reason to exclude it as one of the novels many dimensions. The point, I felt, became obvious when one drew the line between Lolita as a delightfully frivolous story on the verge of pornography and Lolita as a literary masterpiece, the only convincing love story of our century."

"Lovely food, for rabbits, that is."

"One makes mistakes; that is life. But it is never a mistake to have loved."

"[explaining to Ernie how April apologized to him] She just showed up at the factory, took off her coat, and begged me to take her. We made love in a way that Ive only ever seen in nature films."

"Love is always love, come whence it may. A heart that beats at your approach, an eye that weeps when you go away are things so rare, so sweet, so precious that they must never be despised."

"He was obeyed, yet he inspired neither love nor fear, nor even respect. He inspired uneasiness. That was it! Uneasiness. Not a definite mistrust — just uneasiness — nothing more. You have no idea how effective such a... a... faculty can be. He had no genius for organizing, for initiative, or for order even. That was evident in such things as the deplorable state of the station. He had no learning, and no intelligence. His position had come to him — why? Perhaps because he was never ill . . . He had served three terms of three years out there . . . Because triumphant health in the general rout of constitutions is a kind of power in itself."
