could I interest you in everything?

All of the time
A little bit of everything - all of the time
Apathy's a tragedy and boredom is a crime
Anything and everything... all of the time

hold up - wait a minute - put a little love in it

Can't kick the habit
I got the have it
I'm what they call a love addict

Can't live without it, 
Gon' shout about it
A symptomatic love addict

Need a refill cos I just can't get enough 
I've got a fever and the prescription's love

feelin' like a psychofreak sometimes

Tryin' to get connected, no WiFi 
Tell me that you love me, are you lying?
Give me lemonade, I give you limes

stealing is the most sincere form of flattery

Picasso did it. Every great artist does it. 

Robin, are you wearing your pyjamas?

"No, Mrs. Hill."
"Are you sure?" she asked again, tilting her head slightly.
"Yes, Mrs. Hill."

I didn't like Mrs. Hill at the time, but now I do. She, too, could have humiliated me in front of the class, if she chose. She, unlike my art teacher, had an innate appreciation for the ridiculous, which, after all, isn't that far removed from the sublime. And you'd think the art teacher, not the math teacher, would be the one to foster my creativity.
