you may be right, I may be crazy, but it just might be a lunatic you're looking for
Billy Joel

Know what you love and do what you love. If you don't do what you love, you're just wasting your time.
Billy Joel

There's a place in the world for the angry young man With his working class ties and his radical plans He refuses to bend, he refuses to crawl He's always at home with his back to the wall And he's proud of his scars and the battles he's lost And he struggles and bleeds as he hangs on the cross And he likes to be known as the angry young man.

I don't want some pretty face to tell me pretty lies, all I want is someone to believe.

I am, as I've said, merely competent. But in an age of incompetence, that makes me extraordinary.

When I first started I didn't know a lot about the job, so I kinda had to figure it out by wire, ya know? It was hit and miss, I made mistakes, and fortunately I was able to recover from most of 'em. But I promised myself if I ever get to a point where I can help somebody that's trying to learn how to do this, that I would try to do that.

They say that these are not the best of times, but they're the only times I've ever known. And I believe there is a time for meditation in cathedrals of our own. Now I have seen that sad surrender in my lovers eyes...and I can only stand apart and sympathize...for we are only what our situations hand us...it's either sadness or euphoria.

You can walk away from your mistakes You can turn your back on what you do Just a little smile is all it takes And you can have your cake and eat it too. Loneliness will get to you somehow But ev'rybody loves you now.
Billy Joel

If you are not doing what you love, you are wasting your time.
Billy Joel

In every heart there is a room, a sanctuary safe and strong, to heal the wounds from lovers past, until a new one comes along... So I would choose to be with you. That's if the choice were mine to make. But you can make decisions too. And you can have this heart to break. And so it goes, and so it goes. And you're the only one who knows.

You should never argue with a crazy mind, you ought to know my now.

I never stopped writing music, I just stopped writing songs. I've been writing music continually ever since the last album of original tunes, River Of Dreams in '93.

Some love is just a lie of the heart, the cold remains of what began with a passionate heart.

Do what you love, and you'll always love what you do

Black and white is how it should be, but shades of grey are the colors I see.

The graduations hang on the wall, but they never really helped us at all.

Hot funk, cold punk, even if it's old junk, it's still rock and roll to me.

Sergeant O'Leary is walking the beat, at night he becomes a bar tender.

I'm probably writing music now for the same reason as I started writing songs when I was 14 - to meet women.
