Richard Ashcroft

"If trees cut stars and eyes to heaven I'll bend them back, I'll bend them again If my skin looks tired and old from living I'll turn right back and live it again"

"I wander lonely streets behind where the old Thames does flow And in every face I meet reminds me of what I have run for"

"Cause it's a bitter sweet symphony, that's life Try to make ends meet you're a slave to money then you die.No change, I can change I can change, I can change But I'm here in my mold I am here in my mold and I'm a million different people from one day to the next I can't change my mould, no, no, no, no, no..."

"You know the one that takes you to the places where all the veins meet, yeah."

"It’s just sex and violence, melody and silence."

"Eyes open wide, looking at the heavens with a tear in my eye."

"Yes, there's love if you want it. Don't sound like no sonnet, my lord."

"Sinking faster than a boat without a hull."

"And with a drugstore wife, I was dealing, sold a bit of the white, I don't shake no hands 'cause death has no fans."
