More quotes by Tom Petty
Yeah and it's over before you know it It all goes by so fast Yeah the bad nights take forever And the good nights don't ever seem to last
Tom Petty
I'm certainly not a Robin Hood, I'm not that way. I don't want to come through, burn everybody for $200 a ticket and then they can't afford to come see me again. Plus, I just don't think it's right. I don't think we need that much money. I just do what seems like the logical thing to do.
Tom Petty
I'm not any happier anywhere than when I'm in the studio. I'm over the moon about it. It keeps me young, it keeps me feeling like I have some purpose.
Tom Petty
I like a good beer. Of course, I'll drink a bad one too. Let no person thirst for lack of real ale! Thank god for long-necked bottles, the angel's remedy.
Tom Petty
Time to move on, time to get going. What lies ahead I have no way of knowing. But under my feet, baby, grass is growing.
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

Tom Petty
I remember things being more clearer, at one time things were more real.
Tom Petty
But not me, baby, I've got you to save me.
Tom Petty
I developed a problem with authority. Any time that authority was what I interpreted as being unjust, I stood up to it, and that became my personality.
Tom Petty
Oh yeah, alright, take it easy baby, make it last all night. She was an American Girl.
Tom Petty
That's stupid. You couldn't pay me to go. I'm not oversimplifying it. That's what's going on. I don't think it would be any fun without the drugs. It's a drug party.
Tom Petty
George Harrison was the kind of guy who wasn’t going to leave until he hugged you for five minutes and told you how much he loved you.
Tom Petty
I should have known right then it was too good to last, God, it's such a drag when you're livin' in the past
Tom Petty
I would never put my songs in a commercial.
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
