I claim I'm not excited with my life any more So I blame this town, this job, these friends The truth is it's myself And I'm trying to understand myself and pinpoint where i am When I finally get it figured out I've change the whole damn plan
Talking Shit about a Pretty Sunset, Modest Mouse
Money don't grow on trees I got bills to pay, I got mouths to feed There ain't nothing in this world for free Oh no, I can't slow down, I can't hold back Though you know, I wish I could Oh no there ain't no rest for the wicked Until we close our eyes for good
Ain't No Rest for the Wicked, Cage the Elephant ~~
@sideon that is a great song. One of my all time favorites.

Martine: [after learning Babette spent 10,000 francs on the dinner] "Now you'll be poor for the rest of your life."
Babette: "An artist is never poor."
"Throughout the world sounds one long cry from the heart of the artist: Give me the chance to do my very best."
Babette's Feast
"Who are you?" said the Caterpillar.

When you cannot get to sleep at night Taunted by that new daylight When you just can't sleep before the morn And you do not feel reborn
Wait up for me Wait up for me I'll be coming home So you don't have to be alone
When you're lost out in this world And you feel you've come undone You ain't nobody's little girl You ain't nobody's sacred son Wait up for me Wait up for me I'll be coming home So you don't have to be alone
Well I'm ragged too Just like you I might not show it But I feel it inside Well I'm ragged too Lost and blue Feeling like a little Child
Lately I've been thinking of All the losin' that I've done in love The wind she steals my sweet caress Please feel me in your emptiness Wait up for me Wait up for me I'll be comin' home So you don't have to be alone
~ Wait Up For Me by Amos Lee

Not necessarily my favourite, but from a song I heard recently: "She laughs at my dreams, but I dream about her laughter" - The Click 5 - Just the Girl.
From Star Trek Deep Space 9: In The Pale Moonlight, Captain Sisko.
"I lied, I cheated, I bribed men to cover the crimes of other men. I am an accessory to murder. But the most damning thing of all, I think I can live with it. And if I had to do it all over again, I would....A guilty conscious is a small price to pay for the safety of the Alpha quadrant so I will learn to live with it, because I can live with it. I can live with it."
That end monologue gets me every time.
Anchorman "60% of the time it works everytime."

One of my favorite quotes has always been Henry Ford's line about the Model T: You can have it in any color you want, as long as it is black.
I also like a quote from Judge Joe Brown: You can be a fool, but don't be a damn fool!
“There are only four questions of value in life... What is sacred? Of what is the spirit made? What is worth living for, and what is worth dying for? The answer to each is the same: only love.” ~ Don Juan deMarco
Don Juan: Yes. I know who you are. Don Octavio: Who am I? Don Juan: You're Don Octavio del Flores the uncle of Don Francisco da Silva. Don Octavio: And where are we here? Don Juan: Well, I haven't seen a deed, but I assume this villa is yours. Don Octavio: What would you say to someone that said to you, "This is a psychiatric hospital."? And that you're a patient here, and that I am your psychiatrist? Don Juan: I would say that he has a rather limited and uncreative way of looking at the situation.
From Don Juan deMarco
It's the whole song!
Why am I Mr. Pink? Reservoir Dogs
Sometimes in our lives we all have pain We all have sorrow But if we are wise We know that there's always tomorrow

"I'm lying on the moon My dear, I'll be there soon It's a quiet and starry place Time's we're swallowed up In space we're here a million miles away There's things I wish I knew There's no thing I'd keep from you It's a dark and shiny place But with you my dear I'm safe and we're a million miles away We’re lying on the moon It’s a perfect afternoon Your shadow follows me all day Making sure that I'm Okay and we’re a million miles away"
"Yippee Ki Yay, Mother F***er!"

“Her heart sank into her shoes as she realized at last how much she wanted him. No matter what his past was, no matter what he had done. Which was not to say that she would ever let him know, but only that he moved her chemically more than anyone she had ever met, that all other men seemed pale beside him.”
― F. Scott Fitzgerald, A New Leaf
