Tom Petty
I think to be successful you have to work really hard but you also have to have a little bit of luck.
Tom Petty
I'm more interested in what I'm going to leave behind me than in making a big hit record. I've refined what I do for a long time. If getting better at it means it goes over the heads of those who only wanted to party, then so be it.
Tom Petty
If you look around at America, that's one of its biggest problems is you have corporations that can never be pleased at a profit.
Tom Petty
Somewhere, somehow, somebody must have kicked you around some. Tell me, why you want to lay there, revel in your abandon?
