Pete Townshend
Even as age humbles me it feeds my arrogance. There is still nothing that interests me as much as myself.
Pete Townshend
Enjoy life. And be careful what you pray for - remember, you will get it all.
Pete Townshend
Give love, and keep blood between brothers
Pete Townshend
In the midnight of a soul's unsleeping, hear the waterfall of women weeping. Hear the distant noise of traffic stalling, hear the prostituted children calling.
Pete Townshend
Once she woke with untamed lover's face between her legs, now he's cooled and stifled and it's she who has to beg.
Pete Townshend
The fact of the matter is, I'm f**king brilliant. Not 'was' brilliant. 'Am' brilliant.
