I play to all people, and I play to people not governments, and I believe strongly that all people are peaceful and would want peace.
Some people don't believe in climate warning - like those who don't believe there was a Holocaust.
I believe that in the future meditation could be as commonplace in schools and society as eco-awareness is now. It interests me that an ancient cure may be the solution to a modern problem.
We were a savage little lot, Liverpool kids, not pacifist or vegetarian or anything. But I feel I've gone beyond that, and that it was immature to be so prejudiced and believe in all the stereotypes.
I still believe that love is all you need. I don't know a better message than that.
You've got to believe in yourself. ..it really is true, because that's one thing about the Beatles...Man, we believed in ourselves. We knew we were good.
And when at last I find you/ Your song will fill the air.
Having a beard is natural. When you think about it, shaving it off is quite weird.
I think people who create and write, it actually does flow-just flows from into their head, into their hand, and they write it down. It's simple.
The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated.
I like the idea that people hear my stuff, and if it's commercially successful, that's a good sign that it's being heard.
With the Beatles, we'd been very spoiled because we had George Martin who worked for the record label we were going to be signed to. That was very fortunate, because we grew together.
I'm the worst on facts about me or facts about the Beatles.
I used to think that anyone doing anything weird was weird. I suddenly realized that anyone doing anything weird wasn't weird at all and it was the people saying they were weird that were weird.
