More quotes by Pete Townshend

Pete Townshend
I want fast food, pretty naked girls preferably tattooed.
Pete Townshend
Give blood, but you may find that blood is not enough.
Pete Townshend
There's no easy way to be free.
Pete Townshend
Rock 'n' Roll might not solve your problems, but it does let you dance all over them
Pete Townshend
Everything that has befallen you happened simply cause it crossed your mind.
