More quotes by Pete Townshend
I am an animal, my teeth are sharp and my mouth is full, and the passion is strong.
Pete Townshend
It wasn't just about flashing lights and pinball machines blowing up and things like that. It was about using encores, bringing back the good songs and using techniques that I knew about from rock performance.
Pete Townshend
Give blood, but you may find that blood is not enough.
Pete Townshend
I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth.
Pete Townshend
It makes me angry when people insist that I have a responsibility to do what they think I should do.
Pete Townshend
Backstage, I get sleepy, and want to curl up and snooze. I never get nervous, whatever the event. I feel quite detached until I walk on stage, and then some gear inside me clicks and off I go like a wind up doll.
Pete Townshend
All good art cannot help but confront denial on its way to truth.
Pete Townshend
Most of my songs are about Jesus. Most of my songs are about the idea that there is salvation, and that there is a Savior. But I won't mention his name in a song just to get a cheap play.
Pete Townshend
Nothing else in nature behaves so consistently and rigidly as a human being in pursuit of hell.
Pete Townshend
It's the most psychedelic experience I ever had, going to see Hendrix play. When he started to play, something changed: colors changed, everything changed.
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
Rock is very, very important and very, very ridiculous.
Pete Townshend
Tough boys running the streets, come a little closer. Rough toys under the sheets, nobody knows her.
Pete Townshend
As a young man, every bone in my body wanted to pick up a machine gun and kill Germans. And yet I had absolutely no reason to do so. Certainly nobody invited me to do the job. But that's what I felt that I was trained to do. Now no part of my upbringing was militaristic.
Pete Townshend
I believe rock can do anything, it's the ultimate vehicle for everything
Pete Townshend
It's sad when people break up.
Pete Townshend
We are musicians, entertainers. We can do it. We have the right tools. No worries.
Pete Townshend
I felt that the elegance of pop music was that it was reflective: we were holding up a mirror to our audience and reflecting them philosophically and spiritually, rather than just reflecting society or something called 'rock and roll.'
Pete Townshend
Give love, and keep blood between brothers
Pete Townshend
I played the guitar for ten years before I realized it wasn't a weapon.
