    Who cares what games we choose,
    Little to win, but nothing to lose

    And to showcase the line contextually:

    Good sense, innocence, cripplin' mankind
    Dead kings, many things I can't define
    Occasions, persuasions clutter your mind
    Incense and peppermints, the color of time

    Who cares what games we choose,
    Little to win, but nothing to lose

    Religions have been built on less insight!

    War's good business so give your son
    and I'd rather have my country die for me.

    I think that this line is a wonderful end statement to a brilliant canon of work...
    "...and in the end, the love you take...is equal to the love you make".
    Genius !

    "He ain't heavy, he's my brother."

    Yeah, I don't care how trite and cheesy it may be, it is probably my favorite sentiment in music.

    There's a scene in one of the last episodes of ' The Sopranos ' where Tony' s son and his girlfriend are in a car listening to this song and marveling how good it is. I know it's just a TV show but it was good to see someone under the age of fifty digging it.

    When I think of all the worries
    People seem to find
    And how they're in a hurry
    To complicate their minds
    By chasing after money
    And dreams that can't come true...

    First one that popped into my head today:

    “You know the preacher like the cold
    He knows I'm gonna stay

    California dreamin'
    On such a winter's day.”

    Some also rans:

    I'm empty and aching and I don't know why.

    You just kind of wasted all my precious time, but don't think twice its alright.

    Changing your mind as you go through time, you grasp at straws, there are written laws that say you must.
