More quotes by 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
All religions are branches of one big tree. It doesn't matter what you call Him just as long as you call.
George Harrison
The amount of grace I would expect from God should be equal to the amount of grace I can gather or earn. I get out what I put in.
George Harrison
Krishna consciousness was especially good for me because I didn't get the feeling that I'd have to shave my head, move into a temple, and do it full time. So it was a spiritual thing that just fit in with my life-style. I could still be a musician, but I just changed my consciousness, that's all.
George Harrison
A lot of people went underground with their spiritual life in the seventies, but they're out there in little nooks and crannies and in the countryside, people who look and dress straight, insurance salesmen types, but they're really meditators and chanters, closet devotees.
George Harrison
So it's really a process of actually having a realization of God, which all becomes clear with the expanded state of consciousness that develops when you chant.
George Harrison
It's all in the mind.
George Harrison
After all we did for Britain, selling that corduroy and making it swing, all we got was a bit of tin on a piece of leather.
George Harrison
Your own space, man, it's so important. That's why we were doomed because we didn't have any. It is like monkeys in a zoo. They die. You know, everything needs to be left alone.
George Harrison
Life is like a rain drop on a lotus leaf. Everybody realises that you're either very lucky person or you're not.
George Harrison
I am part of the cycle, rebirth death, rebirth death, rebirth death.
George Harrison
So it's the unwinding of your nervous system. The corresponding experience to what winds you up comes out in your dreams. To write a song then, even one like Don't Bother Me, helps to get rid of some subconscious burden. Writing a song is like going to confession.
George Harrison
Nobody can become a drug addict if they're hip. Because it's obvious that if you're hip then you've got to make it. The buzz of all buzzes which is the thing that is God - you've got to be straight to get it.
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
Ultimately the love can become so big that we can love the whole of creation instead of 'I love this but I don't like that.'
George Harrison
The best thing you can give is God consciousness. Manifest your own divinity first. The truth is there. It's right within us all. Understand what you are.
George Harrison
Long time ago when we were fab, back when income tax was all we had.
George Harrison
Although Christ in my mind is an absolute yogi, I think many Christian teachers today are misrepresenting Christ. They're supposed to be representing Jesus, but they're not doing it very well. They're letting him down very badly, and that's a big turn off.
George Harrison
We were the Spice Boys.
George Harrison
Why live in the darkness all your life? Why, if you are unhappy, if you are having a miserable time, why not just look at it? Why are you in the darkness? Look for the light. The light is within.
George Harrison
