More quotes by Pete Townshend
When I grew up, what was interesting for me was that music was color and life was gray. So music for me has always been more than entertainment.
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
Even as age humbles me it feeds my arrogance. There is still nothing that interests me as much as myself.
Pete Townshend
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.
Pete Townshend
All good art cannot help but confront denial on its way to truth.
Pete Townshend
I'M FREE! - I'm free, And freedom tastes of reality, I'm free - I'm free, An' I'm waiting for you to follow me.
Pete Townshend
I respect those who follow religious routes only if they seem to me to be morally proper and in accord with the modern world.
Pete Townshend
The circling horse was an oblique warning that i would repeat the same mistake eternally. Would the law of averages allow it? Can anything continue without change? Nothing else in nature behaves so consistently and rigidly as a human being in pursuit of hell.
Pete Townshend
The facts don't always reveal the truth, but the truth always reveals the facts.
Pete Townshend
Is your perception of 'I Heard It Through the Grapevine' so shallow that it's violated by dancing raisins?
Pete Townshend
There's no easy way to be free.
Pete Townshend
Tough boys running the streets, come a little closer. Rough toys under the sheets, nobody knows her.
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
Hearing loss is a terrible thing because it cannot be repaired.
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
Deep inside of every human being is this feeling that nothing is ever going to be complete, that the circle will never connect - and that itself is the secret to infinity.
Pete Townshend
The problem for me, still today, is that I write purely with one dramatic structure and that is the rite of passage. I'm not really skilled in any other. Rock and roll itself can be described as music to accompany the rite of passage.
Pete Townshend
I played the guitar for ten years before I realized it wasn't a weapon.
Pete Townshend
Beach is a place where a man can feel he's the only soul in the world that's real.
Pete Townshend
Rock 'n' Roll might not solve your problems, but it does let you dance all over them
