Tom Petty

“I think that if people realize that with an mp3, you're only getting five percent of the sound that's there. But when you hear the entire thing... I think it would save the music business. It's such a drastic change.”

“Go after what you really love and find a way to make that work for you, and then you'll be a happy person.”

“I'm not exactly a guy who makes new friends easily.”

“I have turned down a lot of money for things that would have made me feel cheesy.”

“'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.”
