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

    Music is so much a part of their daily lives that if an Indian visits another reservation one of the first questions asked on his return is: “What new songs did you learn?”
    —Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    Now that I have written many words,
    and let out so many loves, for so many,
    and been altogether what I always was
    a woman of excess, of zeal and greed,
    I find the effort useless.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Here’s a wing [laughs]. What do you like, the leg or the wing, Henry, or do you still go for the old hearts and lungs?
    Nicholas Pileggi, U.S. screenwriter, and Martin Scorsese. Tommy DeVito (Joe Pesci)
