Famous quotes containing the words songs, written and/or tommy:

    The militancy of men, through all the centuries, has drenched the world with blood, and for these deeds of horror and destruction men have been rewarded with monuments, with great songs and epics. The militancy of women has harmed no human life save the lives of those who fought the battle of righteousness. Time alone will reveal what reward will be allotted to women.
    Emmeline Pankhurst (1858–1928)

    It is written in the Book of Usable Minutes
    That all things have their center in their dying....
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    Tommy: Life is short.
    Alice Hyatt: So are you.
    Robert Getchell, U.S. screenwriter, and Martin Scorsese. Tommy (Alfred Lutter)
