The fact there is a Highway to Hell but only a Stairway to Heaven says a lot about anticipated traffic patterns.

Matthew 7:13-14 makes a similar point.

There is also Miles Davis who scored the 1958 French film Ascenseur pour l'échafaud

In English that's roughly -- Elevator to the Gallows

Here's a link -- you will notice that Miles Davis is smokin' while scoring the movie live, a stunning display of jazz by a genius

Here's the entire score for those who are jazz fans

Sandi, yes the wide and narrow gates (ordained Presbyterian Elder here )

A doctor, accustomed to getting everything he wants on Earth, suddenly finds himself at the Pearly Gates. He figures Heaven is just like Earth and he'll get special treatment so pushes his way to the front of the long line to get in figuring that since he's a doctor, he'll just get waved in. St. Peter says, "Not so fast Sir!" and the doctor replies, "But I'm a doctor and that comes with privileges!" St. Peter replies, "In Heaven, everyone is equal, so you'll need to go to the back of the line and wait your turn as everyone else in the line has done."

The doctor fumes, but accepts and complies. After a long time waiting, he is near the front of the line. He sees a man in a lab coat walk right past St. Peter and through the Pearly Gates. The doctor is mad and yells at St. Peter, "YOU SAID THAT NOBODY HERE GOT SPECIAL TREATMENT! YOU JUST LET THAT DOCTOR GO IN WITHOUT WAITING IN THE DREADFUL LINE!"

St. Peter replies, "Oh sir, that's not a doctor. That's God, he just thinks he's a doctor."
