More quotes by Pete Townshend
If I told you what it takes to reach the highest high you'd laugh and say nothing that simple, but you've been told many times before messiah's point you to the door though no one's got the guts to leave the temple.
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
Punk rock was the tsunami that threatened to drown us all in 1977.
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
I sing my heart out to the wide open spaces I sing my heart out to the infinite sea I sing my vision to the sky-high mountains I sing my song to the free.
Pete Townshend
There's a man upon that ledge, he's only cleaning windows. What a shame for the pain we're missing. Gonna lean back on my wall and pray for him to fall.
Pete Townshend
I am an animal, my teeth are sharp and my mouth is full, and the passion is strong.
Pete Townshend
Respect yourself. Try to remember that not everything in life can be perfect. You will make mistakes. That's inevitable. But you are not ugly. You will only be ugly when you behave in an ugly way.
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
Beach is a place where a man can feel he's the only soul in the world that's real.
Pete Townshend
But what was interesting about what the Who did is that we took things which were happening in the pop genre and represent them to people so that they see them in a new way. I think the best example is Andy Warhol's work, the image of Marilyn Monroe or the Campbell's soup can.
Pete Townshend
Early British pop was helped tremendously by the writing of Bob Dylan who had proved you could write about political and quite controversial subjects. Certainly what we did followed on from what was happening with the angry young men in the theatre.
Pete Townshend
Man makes machines to man the machines that make the machines.
Pete Townshend
Dance is the only thing that lets you lose yourself and find yourself at the same time.
Pete Townshend
Tough boys running the streets, come a little closer. Rough toys under the sheets, nobody knows her.
Pete Townshend
It's sad when people break up.
Pete Townshend
We've got to fool the fools, and plan the plans. We must rule the rules, got to stand the stands.
Pete Townshend
The fact of the matter is, I'm f**king brilliant. Not 'was' brilliant. 'Am' brilliant.
Pete Townshend
Everything that has befallen you happened simply cause it crossed your mind.
Pete Townshend
Rock 'n' Roll might not solve your problems, but it does let you dance all over them
