wisest thing you have learned from a musical???

At the end of the day, you're another day older.

And there's trouble for all
When there's trouble for one!

How to be a real british sailor:

A British tar is a soaring soul
As free as a mountain bird
His energetic fist should be ready to resist
A dictatorial word
His nose should pant and his lip should curl
His cheeks should flame and his brow should furl
His bosom should heave and his heart should glow
And his fist be ever ready for a knock-down blow

His eyes should flash with an inborn fire
His brow with scorn be wrung
He never should bow down to a domineering frown
Or the tang of a tyrant tongue
His foot should stamp and his throat should growl
His hair should curl and his face should scowl
His eyes should flash and his breast protrude
And this should be his customary attitude

There are some who are in darkness
And the others are in light
And you see the ones in brightness
Those in darkness drop from sight

In olden days a glimpse of stocking
Was looked on as something shocking,
But now, God knows,
Anything Goes.

The origin of love

That's my favourite story from Plato. I quite like the description of the little ball-shaped beings rolling about before they are separated in two halves, and how much the two halves want to find each other and be complete again.

all i want is a room somewhere
way up out from the cold night air
