I thought that I would move this over to the Post in order to archive the conversation for future readers.  Thanks to everyone who contributed, and by all means, feel free to keep adding to the list via comments:

 

"White Castle fries only come in one size" (Beastie Boys)

"The longer I live the more I believe You do have to give if you wanna receive There's a time to listen, a time to talk And you might have to crawl even after you walk Had sure things blow up in my face Seen the longshot, win the race Been knocked down by the slamming door Picked myself up and came back for more Life's a dance you learn as you go Sometimes you lead, sometimes you follow Don't worry about what you don't know Life's a dance you learn as you go" (John Michael Montgomery, "Life's a Dance")

"You say Love is a temple Love a higher law Love is a temple Love the higher law You ask me to enter But then you make me crawl And I can't be holding on To what you got When all you got is hurt One love One blood One life You got to do what you should" (U2, "One")

"So scared of getting older I'm only good at being young So I play the numbers game to find away to say that life has just begun Had a talk with my old man Said help me understand He said turn 68, you'll renegotiate Don't stop this train Don't for a minute change the place you're in Don't think I couldn't ever understand I tried my hand John, honestly we'll never stop this train" (John Mayer, "Stop This Train")

"My old friend, I apologize For the years that have passed Since the last time you and I Dusted off those memories But the running and the races The people and the places There's always somewhere else I had to be Time gets slim, my old friend" (Tim McGraw, "My Old Friend")

"You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice. If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice. You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill; I will choose a path that's clear I will choose freewill." (Rush, "Freewill")

"The best are brought down by degree or killed by curiosities, attention please is all they understand." (Sicko, "Attention Please")

"And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?" (Pink Floyd, "Wish You Were Here")

"When I was a baby my mama told me son, always be a good boy don't ever play with guns, well I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die" (Johnny Cash "Folsom Prison Blues")
