"Well I'll go to college and I'll learn some big words, and I'll talk really loud, GD right I'll be heard, you'll remember all those guys that said all those big words he must've learned in college."
-"Bankrupt on Selling" Modest Mouse

"As life gets longer, awful feels softer, and it feels pretty soft to me. And if it takes s*** to make bliss, then I feel pretty blissfully."
-"The View" Modest Mouse

Probably not the best ever, but a couple of my recent favorites.

^That second one is nice.

And because I'm bored I'll put a bunch more:

"Heaven is a place where nothing ever happens."
(Talking Heads, "Heaven)

"'I'll let you be in my dream if I can be in yours.'"
(Bob Dylan, "Talking World War III Blues")

"You're right from your side, I'm right from mine/We're both just one too many mornings
an' a thousand miles behind."
(Bob Dylan, "One Too Many Mornings")

"And I know what must change,
F*** my face, f*** my name,
They are brief and false advertisements."
(Bright Eyes, "False Advertising")

"Everybody asks me how she's doing,
'Has she really lost her mind?'
I said 'I couldn't tell you; I've lost mine.'"
(DMB, "Pay for What You Get")

"I am a lost soul,
I shoot myself with rock and roll.
The hole I dig is bottomless,
And nothing else can set me free."
(Guided By Voices, "I Am a Scientist")

"I saw your flag on the marble arch,
But love is not a victory march.
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah."
(Jeff Buckley, "Hallelujah")

"And one day we will die and our ashes will fly from the aeroplane over the sea...
But for now we are young - let us lay in the sun and count every beautiful thing we can see."
(Neutral Milk Hotel, "In the Aeroplane Over the Sea")

"This machine will, will not communicate
These thoughts, and this strain I am under."
(Radiohead, "Street Spirit [Fade Out]")

"I'd tell all my friends but they'd never believe me,
They'd think that I'd finally lost it completely,
I'd show them the stars, and the meaning of life... they'd shove me away...
But I'd be alright.......... I'm just... uptight..."
(Radiohead, "Subterranean Homesick Alien")

"Don left,
And drove,
And howled,
And laughed,
At himself.
He felt he knew what that was."
(Slint, "Don, Aman")
