About This Quote

And for once a band of thieves in ripped up jeans got to rule the world, is a line from an old Pink Floyd song "When the Tigers Broke Free." The lyrics are referring to the time when the Beatles were still in their teens, full of youthful exuberance. They took over the music world, but young, inexperienced and not thinking of consequences. Of course that's what happened in most of their actions. They never thought about who they were taking over for or how they would be affected by it. Their innocent actions resulted in a whole lot of people being hurt.
