"Even if he didn't shoot him, he killed him."

"And still we sleep.”
"And still we sleep.
And still we pray.
And still we fear"

"We are listening for the calling but never really heeding,
Hoping for the future when the future's only plans.
Dreaming of the wisdom that we are dodging daily,
Praying for a savior when salvation's in our hands."

"We are dreaming of tomorrow, and tomorrow isn't coming;
we are dreaming of a glory that we
don't really want.
We are dreaming of a new day when the new day's here already.
We are running from the battle when it's one
that must be fought."

"Of course I know you! From the first time I saw you I knew you had a wonderful soul."
"Just like that?" she asked.
"Of course just like that. That's how you always know when it's right."

"The heavens made a girl named Chris,
With hair and skin of gold
To touch her would be paradise
To kiss her - glory untold."

"They made a goddess and called her
Chris, How? I'll never know.
But though my soul is far behind,
My love can only grow."

"I see a sweetness in her smile,
Bright light shines from her eyes
But life is complete contentment is mine,
Just knowing that she's alive."

“When I think about Carpe Diem and all that, I feel like I'm in prison!”

"What is wrong with old habits, Mr. Overstreet?"
"They perpetuate mechanical living, sir. They limit your mind."

"'To be or not to be, that is the question!' God, for the first time in my whole life, I feel completely alive! You have to try it"

"I always thought education was learning to think for yourself"
