Okay sorry I have to write more than just one line.. too many good ones. Some of my favorites have already been posted so I will try to only say ones that havent been mentioned.

Whatever happens, we have this moment. Who needs tomorrow when we have today?
-Aspects of Love, Seeing is believing-

Then I saw a camp for children whose crime was being born
-Miss Saigon, Bui Doi-

What was it about that night? connection in an isolating age
-Rent, What you own-

Oh moon grow bright and make this endless day, endless night
-West side story, Quintet-

once before its time to say adieu world, one sweet chance to prove the critics wrong
-Jekyll and Hyde, A New Life-

I'll drink your cup of poison
-Jesus Christ Superstar, Gethsemene-

Loving you is not a choice, its who I am
-Passion, Loving you-

But alone is alone, not alive
-Being Alive, Company-

Now life has killed the dream I dreamed
-Les mis, I dreamed a dream-

p.s sorry if I wrote too many... these are just some of the lines that have had a strong effect on me.

"Deep in December it's nice to remember
Without a hurt, the heart is hollow."
