Quote or song lyric?

Work like you don`t need the money, love like you`ve never been hurt, and dance like no one is watching."
-- Bono


Does anyone know if this is a lyric to one of U2's songs, or just a quote. I've come accross it many times, but haven't figured out where it originated from.

Thanks!

Its definitely not a lyric. So...it must be a quote.

Bono did not originate this saying. It's from somewhere else (gawd, I remember that from a thread on this 2 years ago...lol) and he just likes saying it a lot.

Thank you for the replies, I was pretty sure it wasn't a song lyric. I knew someone here would know!

I don't know who originally said it, but I didn't think it was Bono...

Yeah, I remember that old thread! I've seen that quote credited to a variety of people (including anonymous), so I don't know if we ever got to the bottom of it!
