From Prince's songs - pick the best line(s)! Things that could make it into a book like: "The best song-quotes ever" or something like that.

A couple of my favorite quotes,

"I hate to see an errection go to waste"

"I only say and do the things that I do cause Im not you"

Much love Pochacco

as 4 quotes, here's mine...it's in dmsr, and it knocked my sox off when i read it. it's odd, cuz it turned out 2 be somewhat prophetic as well:

"when you talk about fucking and blowjobs, you cannot constantly hedge on it. you wind up talking crap. that's the kind of hypocrisy i want to expose. i say out loud what no man or woman dares to say, but is thinking about."

--said that in '80, btw...

If I come back as a woman,I want a body like yours...

"...built like she was, she had the nerve to ask me, if I plan to do her any harm..." Rasberry Beret

"A 100% Italian silk imported Egyptian lace" Adore

"The speed of their hips, can be faster than a runaway train..." When 2 R N Love

"Their bodies shiver in mere contemplation, of penetration, let alone the actual act...ACT!"

"The thought of his tongue in the V of her love, this thought leads the pack...PACK!"

"Should we go on living together? Or should we get married right away? Whatever you decide, I'll still love you, baby
And we'll grow stronger everyday...?" Baby

"U say not in public but I say in the car
Say, we need to get wild again like it was when we first met
Close your eyes and count 2 ten and when u open 'em -
I'll be standing naked with nothing but a smile on..." BlueLight

That's only a few! Some of these words explain the very reason I love that Man (prince), because often he takes the words right outta my mouth

"some people tell me Ive got great legs"

"Don't use the magical
Mysterious, intoxicating, joy fantastic
Fascinating word called love
Unless u love me 2 the 9's
This is the only kind of love
That I've been dreaming of
The kind of love that takes over your
Body, mind, and soul
Love 2 the 9's"

Beautiful...

"Love's too weak to define just what u mean to me"

Oh yes...

gubbins4ever said:

Yes I agree Gubbins, that is beautiful...which goes to show that the Love/Symbol album is underrated.

"Love's too weak to define, just what you mean to me"

Ur soo right...

Blue

From: Wherever U go, whatever U do...

Wherever U r, think of your dreams,
please remember life ain't always what it seems
4 each rainy day that comes your way
the sun will come shining and you'll b ok
Keep on smilin'-every girl and boy
Remember when U were children U had toys
Wherever U r, think of ur dreams
Remember dreams become the life you lead

Whatever U play, it's ok to lose sometimes,
as long as you learn from every game you choose
If one thing is sure, U'll always endure
if U try your best at everything U do
Say what U mean and mean what U say
The price 4 a broken heart is 2 much 2 pay
And nothing is worth it if U don't have to try
The higher the stakes-the higher the sky

Wherever U go, whatever U do,
please remember 'll always b there 4 U

Dansa, this quote sounds familiar, but WHO did he say this too, was it in an interview or something?

rdhull said:

When and to whom did he say this??

LadyCabDriver said:

He said this on the bootleg Emporium. I take it he was referring to a fan or reporter in the audience taking pics of him.

"Never let that lonely monster take control of you."

This was one of the first Prince songs to come back to my mind/spirit("reintegrating where he's understood and adored") during the trial I'll call my divorce. If U can believe I didn't listen to Prince for 7 years-the whole time I was married!!! I wuz young and was told I wasn't a good christian if I listened to Prince. The truth is...I am a christian from listening to Prince! (&, I get up and dance when he per4orms The Cross!)

Bob George: WHO PRINCE? THAT SKINNY MUTHAFUCKER WITH THE HIGH VOICE!!

It's definitely "act your age, not your shoe size". My favourite has always been "you're nothin but a muffin and I got a lot of butta to go".
