The problem for me, still today, is that I write purely with one dramatic structure and that is the rite of passage. Im not really skilled in any other. Rock and roll itself can be described as music to accompany the rite of passage. – Pete Townshend

I think that everyone at any age should ask themselves, where do I want to be today, where do I want to be tomorrow, and where do I want to be in a hundred years?
