Quotations

Mama never loved her much and daddy never keeps in touch, that´s why she shies away from human affection.

"To the Moon and Back|To the Moon and Back"

I want to live like animals Careless and free like animals I want to live I want to run through the jungle With wind in my hair and the sand at my feet

"The Animal Song|The Animal Song"

Love is like a barren place. Reaching out for human faith is like a journey I just don´t have a map for.

"To the Moon and Back"

I want you, I don´t know if I need you, oh I´d die to find out!

"I Want You (Savage Garden)|I Want You"

I´ll be your dream, I´ll be your wish, I´ll be your fantasy. I´ll be your hope, I´ll be your love, be everything that you need. I love you more with every breath truly madly deeply do. I´ll be be strong, I´ll be faithful, because I´m counting on a new beginning, a reason for living, a deeper meaning yeah!

"Truly Madly Deeply|Truly Madly Deeply"

I wanna stand with you on a mountain, I wanna bathe with you at the sea, I wanna lay like this forever, until the sky falls down on me.

"Truly Madly Deeply"

Just, brake me, shake me, hate me, take me over, when the madness stops then you´ll be alone.

"Break Me Shake Me|Break Me Shake Me" : Asian Tour Package (live album), released February 2, 1999

Could you imagine Him hanging Piccadilly Circus Time Square, the Walk of Fame At Christie's He could easily become a regular

"I'll Bet He Was Cool" : Affirmation (album)|Affirmation, released November 9, 1999

I believe you can´t control and choose your sexuality. I believe that trust is more important than monogamy.

"Affirmation (song)|Affirmation"

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned. I believe you can´t appreciate real love til you´ve been burned. I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side, I believe you don´t know what you got until you say goodbye.

"Affirmation"
