Tom Petty Quotes

Yeah and it's over before you know it
It all goes by so fast
Yeah the bad nights take forever
And the good nights don't ever seem to last

The weak ones fall, the strong carry on.

I've got a little space to fill.

Every day you see one more card.
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart.
The waiting is the hardest part.
