You gotta be cruel to be kind.
The truth is not kind
And you've said neither am I
Nothing's so cold
As closing the heart when all we need is to free the soul
But we wouldn't be that brave I know

A distance runner's dream:
"Easin' down the highway in a new Cadillac
I had a fine fox in front, I had three more in the back
They sportin' short dresses, wearin' spike-heel shoes
They smokin' Lucky Strikes, and wearing nylons too."
I'm Bad, I'm Nationwide. ZZ Top.
All time classic:
"Well, I'm standing on a corner
In Winslow, Arizona
And such a fine sight to see
It's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed Ford
Slowin' down to take a look at me
Come on, baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love
Is gonna save me."
