My dad, bless him, was a musician. And his dad had thought that his music was rubbish.
When you said you were a terrible singer, I thought you were being humble. But you weren't.
George Harrison and John Lennon were the ones most against touring ... I'd been trying to say ..Ah, tourings good and it keeps us sharp .. but finally I agreed with them
Personal differences, musical differences, business differences, but most of all because I have a better time with my family.
One of my biggest thrills for me still is sitting down with a guitar or a piano and just out of nowhere trying to make a song happen.
When you were young, and your heart, was an open book. You used to say, live and let live.
Nothing pleases me more than to go into a room and come out with a piece of music.
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.
