I was working on "Coffee In A Cardboard Cup" as an ensemble piece in my musical theatre class this morning, so this one was on my mind:

"No one knows the meaning of utopia
is dining at the corner cornucopia."

And, with all the clever Sondheim lyrics we could quote, among my favorites is one of the most compact, but packed, from Forum:
"Today I woke too weak to walk."
