One of These Things First
Song lyrics, Bryter Later (1970)
“I should have been home
Hours ago,
But I'm not here.
But I'm not here…”
Song lyrics, Hounds of Love (1985), The Ninth Wave
In response to a question from an audience member
2004 speech to the Supreme Cultural Revolution Council
“I am not fit for this office and should never have been here.”
Quoted in Nicholas Murray Butler (1939) Across the Busy Years vol. 1.
1920s
Edie : American Girl (1982)
Context: Everything that happened to me has been a paradox for life. The very things that I should have done would have been the trap. The very things I might have given into, that demanded, that said, this is your life. I mean, this is your only way to survive, are the things I found hardest to end. 'Cause I believed in something else. You have to work like mad to make people understand... Even if I don't make it, you know, I really insist on believing, and then I fall off the edge because there's nobody else to follow it. And I would just fall off the edge.
