Dance is the only thing that lets you lose yourself and find yourself at the same time.
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

I have to say that anger is the blanket that comes around me, and that blunts and blurs my sense of proportion.

Man makes machines to man the machines that make the machines.

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.

All good art cannot help but confront denial on its way to truth.

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.

Everything that has befallen you happened simply cause it crossed your mind.

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.

I see a boy with his mother's ambition, performing for love, trained in submission.

Nothing else in nature behaves so consistently and rigidly as a human being in pursuit of hell.

I played the guitar for ten years before I realized it wasn't a weapon.

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

Enjoy life. And be careful what you pray for - remember, you will get it all.

I don't really know any other musicians like me. I grew up backstage with my dad who played in a post-war dance band, so I always feel at home at a venue.

It's terrible feeling like an eligible bachelor but no women seeming to agree with you.

Hearing loss is a terrible thing because it cannot be repaired.
Pete Townshend

It makes me angry when people insist that I have a responsibility to do what they think I should do.
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.

Good old Pete. That's me. But I find it hard to think of myself in the first person when I'm writing about The Who. So many times he has willingly sat down to write about the good old Who. Isn't he too old to masturbate?
