Quotes:
"Rock music is important to people because it allows them to escape this crazy world. It allows them not to run away from the problems that are there, but to face up to them, but at the same time sort of dance all over them. That's what rock and roll is about." Submitted by: White City Fighter

"Saying he was a "woman" in an interview."
During a 1990 interview, when asked about the interpretation of "Rough Boys" and his sexual orientation, Townshend quoted, (from a book of interviews by Timothy White), "I know how it feels to be a woman, because I am a woman. And I won't be classified as just a man."
