I tend not to list sources on quotations on purpose - it rather
nicely decontextualizes the language from the movie or video that
plays in your head when you read it. It's my blow against the 
music business. Also, some of the quotations are not from songs at
all, but from poets. Never hurts to hook the unwary into a life of
reading the "dead" corpus of poetics. Ciaoragazzi.
