quotes of song lyricsWhat are some good quotes/song lyrics for my project?

What are some good quotes/song lyrics for my project?
For an art project, I want to make these tiles out of cardboard, and each tile is going to have a quote/song lyric/song title/book title/ etc. on it, but it has to have some meaning or significance. I have a few, but I'd like some more. Any ideas?

“Why am I fighting to live, if I'm just living to fight

Why am I dying to live, if I'm just living to die?
someone tell me y” - Tupac Shakur

can happen to you” - Dr. Seuss

I would suggest that you stick with a theme. For example: Overcoming Prejudice and using the civil rights movement/Martin Luther King era for ideas. You could use quotes from that time period and songs from that era, such as "we shall overcome" and "I have a dream". I think that would be really powerful. There are a lot of other themes you could use as well, such as diversity in general, or love, or children are the future... I thinking sticking with some kind of a theme would be the most powerful.
Do you have a particular theme for your prquotes of song lyricsoject? Is this project a school assignment? My daughter did something similar for either photography or journalism. She's done a few other things for yearbook and they were quite creative. More info. would help to narrow down ideas. Also, if school related (age appropriate) may need consideration.
Well I have a few..... "Who I am Hates Who Ive Been"

"Forgiven"
"Curl Up and Die" ... I dont know if you like those songs but I love all of them. Even Curl up and die. Relient K sings them and they are a christian band just so u know. But they dont exactly mention God in all of their songs. Those songs are great though. Hope you like them! Also check out the Beatles. They have a few I bet.
vedi vidi vici

she makes dirty words sound pretty

love hurts, but sometimes its a good hurt and it feels like im alive

this is our decision to live fast and die young

and i cant help but ask myself how much i let the fear take the wheel and steer
sorry, that's all i can think of right now
okay here is just a idea


"If you never try, you never fail, nor do you win"


just random stuff i make up hope it helps!!!!
"Like the wind you snuck upon me and had me begging for your storm."
from O.A.R. -don't know... just love their music.
