    One of my favourite song quotes to think of when dealing with people.
    "In dearth or in excess/ Both the slave and the empress/ Will return to the dirt I guess/ Naked as they came."
    Fleet Foxes, Montezuma.

    Couldn't pick just one line. It's a cohesive whole, one is incomplete without the rest.

    Never Is A Promise
    Artist: Fiona Apple

    http://youtu.be/c5XptSCCciU

    You'll never see the courage I know
    Its colors' richness won't appear within your view
    I'll never glow - the way that you glow
    Your presence dominates the judgements made on you

    But as the scenery grows, I see in different lights
    The shades and shadows undulate in my perception
    My feelings swell and stretch; I see from greater heights
    I understand what I am still too proud to mention - to you

    You'll say you understand, but You don't understand
    You'll say you'd never give up seeing eye to eye
    But never is a promise, and you can't afford to lie

    You'll never touch - these things that I hold
    The skin of my emotions lies beneath my own
    You'll never feel the heat of this soul
    My fever burns me deeper than I've ever shown - to you

    You'll say, Don't fear your dreams, it's easier than it seems
    You'll say you'd never let me fall from hopes so high
    But never is a promise and you can't afford to lie

    You'll never live this life that I live
    I'll never live the life that wakes me in the night
    You'll never hear the message I give
    You'll say it looks as though I might give up this fight

    But as the scenery grows, I see in different lights
    The shades and shadows undulate in my perception
    My feelings swell and stretch, I see from greater heights
    I realize what I am now too smart to mention - to you

    You'll say you understand, you'll never understand
    I'll say I'll never wake up knowing how or why
    I don't know what to believe in, you don't know who I am
    You'll say I need appeasing when I start to cry
    But never is a promise and I'll never need a lie

    I could have been someone
    Well so could anyone
    You took my dreams from me
    When I first found you
    I kept them with me babe
    I put them with my own
    Can´t make it out alone
    I´ve built my dreams around you
    Aw but actual respect love the pogues

    Yes, Black by Pearl Jam and Thank You by Led Zeppelin have some awesome lines; Also like that Fields Of Gold song by Sting.....watch her body rise as you kiss her mouth while we lie in fields of gold.....

    The smile on your face let's me know that you need me
    There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
    The touch of your hand says you'll catch me whenever I fall
    You say it best when you say nothing at all

    -Ronan Keating

    From Buckets of Rain:

    I like your smile and your fingertips
    I like the way that you move your hips.
    I like the cool way you look at me.
    Everything about you is bringing me misery.

    Devastating.

    The memory plays tricks on us
    The more we cling the less we trust
    And the less we trust the more we hurt
    And as time goes on it just gets worse

    So Father, give me the strength
    To be everything I'm called to be
    Oh Father, show me the way
    To lead them

    Won't You lead me?

    To lead them with strong hands
    To stand up when they can't
    Don't want to leave them hungry for love
    Chasing things that I could give up

    I'll show them I'm willing to fight
    And give them the best of my life
    So we can call this our home
    Lead me 'cause I can't do this alone

    Lead me - Sanctus Real
