Quote by Tim Rice

“Now I'm where I want to be and who I want to be and doing what I always said I would and yet I feel I haven't won at all. Running for my life and never looking back in case there's someone right behind me shoot me down and say he always knew I'd fall. When the crazy wheel slows down where will I be? Back where I started.”

Times have been good, fast, entertaining. But what's the point if I'm concealing not only love, all other feeling.”
