More quotes by George Harrison
The Christianity that had come in my life as a child was all this idea that you're never going to see God. It's like hypocrisy, in a way.
George Harrison
I believe love - and its feminine, though not necessarily female, counterpart, romance, is a private thing. It's something I'm not willing to share with the public.
George Harrison
It's easier to criticize somebody else, than to see yourself.
George Harrison
I'm pessimistic about the future of the planet. These big guys don't realize for everything they do, there's a reaction. You have to pay. That's karma.
George Harrison
It's being here now that's important. There's no past and there's no future. Time is a very misleading thing. All there is ever, is the now. We can gain experience from the past, but we can't relive it and we can hope for the future, but we don't know if there is one.
George Harrison
In the beginning was the word and that's the thing about Krishna, saying Krishna, Krishna, Krishna, Krishna, so it's not the word that you're saying, it's the sound: Krishna Krishna Krishna Krishna Krishna Krishna and it's just sounds and it's great.
George Harrison
The media is to blame for everything, for all the misconceptions about the movement, but in a sense it didn't really matter if they said something good or bad, because Krishna consciousness always seemed to transcend that barrier anyway. The fact that the media was letting people know about Krishna was good in itself.
George Harrison
Oh yeah, gossip. I heard you on the secret wireless. You know the devil's radio child.
George Harrison
Now it may seem so far from where we all are It's something we can't neglect It's something I can't neglect Now won't you give some bread to get the starving fed
George Harrison
Unless you're doing some kind of God conscious thing and you know that He's the one who's really in charge, you're just building up a lot of karma and not really helping yourself or anybody else.
George Harrison
I wanted to be successful, not famous.
George Harrison
I'd rather be one of the devotees of God than one of the straight, so-called sane or normal people who just don't understand that man is a spiritual being, that he has a soul.
George Harrison
One of the main differences between silent meditation and chanting is that silent meditation is rather dependent on concentration, but when you chant, it's more of a direct connection with God.
George Harrison
Food is less important to me because I've learned to control my appetite to a great extent, simply by having my mind elsewhere. I find when I'm busy meditating on other aspects of my life I go without eating and I don't miss it.
George Harrison
Consciousness and meditation are methods where you can actually obtain GOD perception.
George Harrison
Some things take so long But how do I explain When not too many people Can see we're all the same And because of all their tears Your eyes can't hope to see The beauty that surrounds them Now, isn't it a pity
George Harrison
The Past is gone and the future might not even be, the only thing we ever experience is the now, I try to enjoy the minute.
George Harrison
I've got my mind set on you. But it's gonna take money, a whole lot of spending money, it's gonna take plenty of money.
George Harrison
Everybody should just stay at home and meditate and they'd be so much happier.
George Harrison
Although I have guitars all around and I pick themm up occasionally and write a tune and make a record, I don't really see myself as a musician. It may seem a funny thing to say. It's just like, I write lyrics amd I make up songs, but I'm not a great lyricist or songwriter or producer. It's when you put all these things together - that makes me.
