More quotes by Tom Petty
Whatever you're looking for, don't come around here no more.
Tom Petty
Music really isn’t supposed to be perfect. It’s all about people relating to each other and doing something that’s really from the soul. It must come from the soul.
Tom Petty
It's funny how the music industry is enraged about the Internet and the way things are copied without being paid for. But you know why people steal the music? Because they can't afford the music.
Tom Petty
Lord, please watch over all these lost children born to chase the hurricane.
Tom Petty
Running down a dream... working on a mystery... going wherever it leads.
Tom Petty
I want to be successful. Not just money. Just making a successful record and a successful show... I could feel successful without selling a million records.
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
Most things I worry about never happen anyway.
Tom Petty
God, it's so painful when something that's so close is still so far out of reach.
Tom Petty
I don't think it's a good attitude in your life to feel that you have to be rich to have self-esteem.
Tom Petty
Yeah, the world would swing if I were king. Can I help it if I still dream time to time?
Tom Petty
I'm so tired of being tired. Sure as night will follow day most things I worry about will never happen anyway.
Tom Petty
Redemption comes to those who wait, forgiveness is the key.
Tom Petty
Way up in the nosebleeds we watched him on the screen, they'd hung between the billboards so cheaper seats could see.
Tom Petty
As we celebrate mediocrity, all the boys upstairs want to see. How much you'll pay for what you used to get for free.
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
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
In a world that keeps on pushing me around, I'm gonna stand my ground, and I won't back down.
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.
