More quotes by Tom Petty
My sister got lucky, married a yuppie, and took him for all he was worth. Now she's a swinger dating a singer, I can't decide which is worse.
Tom Petty
You get in there, you get the job done and you get the hell out.
Tom Petty

I don't believe in censorship, but I do believe that an artist has to take some moral responsibility for what he or she is putting out there. And I think a lot of these young kids are going to have to learn the hard way before they realize that you can actually do some damage if you're being careless or frivolous in what you're saying.
Tom Petty

When I decided to be a musician I reckoned that that was going to be the way of less profit, less money. I was sort of giving up the idea of making a lot of money. It was what I loved to do. I would have done it anyway. If I'd had to work at Taco Bell I'd have still been out at night trying to play music.
Tom Petty
In a world that keeps on pushing me around, I'm gonna stand my ground, and I won't back down.
Tom Petty
We don't really make bad records, though some people might like some more than others. And we have never really done a bad show. So I think in a way maybe we've been taken for granted.
Tom Petty
'Free Fallin'' is a very good song. Maybe it would be one of my favorites if it hadn't become this huge anthem. But I'm grateful that people like it.
Tom Petty
Take back your insurance, baby, nothing is guaranteed. Take back your acid rain, let your TV bleed.
Tom Petty
We could move catalog, if he'd only die quicker.
Tom Petty
I had the radio on, I was driving. Trees flew by, me and Del were singing, Little Runaway, I was flying.
Tom Petty
I love history, doesn't matter what era, I'm fascinated.
