You've got your passion. You've got your pride. But don't you know that only fools are satisfied? Dream on, but don't imagine they'll all come true.
Billy JoelRead
Well I never had a place that I could call my very own/That's all right, my love, 'cause you're my home.
Interpretation
Home is not just a place, but where love resides.
In this quote, Billy Joel expresses that true belonging and comfort stem from love rather than physical locations. The idea is that the presence of a loved one creates a sense of home, transcending traditional notions of what 'home' means.
In practice
Use this quote in a wedding toast to highlight the importance of love in building a life together.
You've got your passion. You've got your pride. But don't you know that only fools are satisfied? Dream on, but don't imagine they'll all come true.
If it seems like I've been lost in 'lets remember', If it seems I'm gettin' older and missin' my younger days, well you shoulda known me much better, cause the past is something that never got in my way.
I consider myself to be an inept pianist, a bad singer, and a merely competent songwriter. ... I'm probably writing music now for the same reason as I started writing songs when I was 14-to meet women. ... If you make music for the human needs you have within yourself, then you do it for all humans who need the same things. You enrich humanity with the profound expression of these feelings. ... My songs are like my kids.
No matter what culture you're from, everyone loves music.

I don't care what consequence it brings, I have been a fool for lesser things.
People cry at weddings for the same reason they cry at happy endings: because they so desperately want to believe in something they know is not credible.
Its a beautiful woman's fate to be the subject of conversation where ever she goes
Love is not a hot-house flower, but a wild plant, born of a wet night, born of an hour of sunshine; sprung from wild seed, blown along the road by a wild wind. A wild plant that, when it blooms by chance within the hedge of our gardens, we call a flower; and when it blooms outside we call a weed; but, flower or weed, whose scent and colour are always, wild!
Your eyes in which I travel Have given to signs along the roads A meaning alien to the earth.
The moon is nothing But a circumambulating aphrodisiac Divinely subsidized to provoke the world Into a rising birth-rate
My mother once told me that if a married couple puts a penny in a pot for every time they make love in the first year, and takes a penny out every time after that, they'll never get all the pennies out of the pot.
