Billy Joel
I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints - the sinners are much more fun.
Billy Joel
The joy of life is made up of obscure and seemingly mundane victories that give us our own small satisfactions.
Billy Joel
She can kill with a smile. She can wound with her eyes. She can ruin your faith with her casual lies. And she only reveals what she wants you to see. She hides like a child, but she's always a woman to me.
Billy Joel

Billy Joel
You're not the only one who's made mistakes, but they're the only things that you can truly call your own.
Billy Joel
