To let me know you made it home,
Don't want nothing to be wrong,
With part-time lover.”

“I'm in Bolton, so I won't have to give me mum three rings to let her know I'm home safe. Do you do that? Give her three rings and after the second ring she picks it up. What's the point of that?”

“I would say that there are certain glittering generalities that can be made about every sign that will hold true about everybody who's a member of that sign. For instance, if you had been a Virgo, you would have understood how I hate to be late. I broke up a group I was in once called The Big Three because one of the guys was chronically late and I couldn't take it. I feel when you're supposed to be some place on time, you're there on time. You don't hang people up. It doesn't matter if you're the President of the United States. That's not what you are here for, to hang people up. When I know somebody's sign, and I usually know everybody's sign whether they tell me or not — after getting into this for several years — it helps me to deal with them. Usually I'd rather let people deal with me. That's a total ego hang up, but that's where it's at.”

“You don't have to put up a fight, you don't have to always be right.
Let me take some of the punches for you tonight.
Listen to me now, I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone.
And it's you when I look in the mirror.
It's you when I pick up the phone.
Sometimes you can't make it on your own.”

Bono (1960) Irish rock musician, singer of U2
