More quotes by George Harrison
No matter how good you are, you still need grace to get out of the material world. You can be a yogi or a monk or a nun, but without God's grace you still can't make it.
George Harrison
People have to have the desire within themselves to find out who they are. Who am I and what am I doing here and where am I going? Those sort of basic questions. Even without picking up a book or anything. If they just ask themselves that sincerely, in the quiet of the night, the door will open.
George Harrison
I guess that's the business of devotees - to make you think of God.
George Harrison
I consider myself perfectly normal, and I don't know of any part of my life that would be so unusual as to interest the idly curious.
George Harrison
Once you realize something, then you can't pretend you don't know it any more.
George Harrison
I'm grateful to myself and those closest to me me for having given me that non-material base that means I'm a happy man, one who doesn't have to compete or engineer projects he doesn't have his heart in.
George Harrison
Whatever you've done, you get it back, so you can either go on, or you can blow it.
George Harrison
It doesn't matter whether you're the king of a country or... a fabulous Beatle it's what's inside that counts.
George Harrison
I have suffered for this book now it's your turn.
George Harrison
Everybody is looking for Krishna. Some don't realize that they are, but they are.
George Harrison
Been stuck in airports, terrorized sent to meetings, hypnotized overexposed, commercialized. Handle me with care.
George Harrison
The Greek word for Christ is Kristos, which is, let's face it, Krishna, and Kristos is the same name actually.
George Harrison
Chanting Hare Krishna can make a person a better Christian.
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 mind that wants to wander around a corner is an un-wise mind. Now, is, be here now.
George Harrison
It takes a certain amount of time and faith to accept or to realize that there is no difference between Him and His name, to get to the point where you're no longer mystified by where He is. You know, like, Is He around here? You realize after some time, Here He is - right here! It's a matter of practice.
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
They used us as an excuse to go mad and then blamed it on us. Gandhi says create and preserve the image of your choice. The image of my choice is not Beatle George - those who want that can go and see Wings. Why live in the past? Be here now.
George Harrison
Dear one, near me, truth assessed, reborn worldwise, mind at rest. True heart sow you, God has blessed, your soul whispers, love confessed.
George Harrison
Badfinger was pretty good. It was a very sad story, though, because the guy, he ended up killing himself, Pete Ham, who was a lovely fellow, he was a good guitar player and a great singer, he wrote, the most famous tune I would imagine is Without You, you know the Harry Nilsson record.
George Harrison
