Jonathan Larson

Rent is about a community celebrating life, in the face of death and AIDS, at the turn of the century.

There is no future, there is no past. I live this moment as my last. There's only us, there's only this. Forget regret, or life is yours to miss. No other road, no other way, no day but today.

Give into love or live in fear.

The heart may freeze, or it can burn. The pain will ease and I can learn. There is no future, there is no past. I live this moment as, my last.

I'd be happy to die for a taste of what Angel had. Someone to live for. Unafraid to say I love you.
