Quote

I've heard that while the show was on there were no reported crimes, or very few. When The Beatles were on Ed Sullivan, even the criminals had a rest for ten minutes.

If everyone who had a gun just shot themselves, there wouldn't be a problem.

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

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.

Beware of sadness It can hit you It can hurt you Make you sore and what is more That is not what you are here for.

Hallelujah and Hare Krishna are quite the same thing.

Even those of us who are very very aware are still so unaware. Everything's relative so that, the more you know, the more you know you don't know anything.

That's the real beauty of chanting - you directly connect with God. I have no doubt that by saying Krishna over and over again, He can come and dance on the tongue. The main thing, though, is to keep in touch with God.

The police are people as well. All those nasty people aren't really nasty if they'd realise it.

The Beatles are now history, and it would be unhealthy to try to make my way as a former member. I must admit I occasionally listen to our records, but usually it's not deliberate. I'm more concerned with the present, with working out my own individual style and producing something new and worthwhile.

Rap music is just computerised crap. I listen to Top of the Pops and after three songs I feel like killing someone.

I believe what it says in the scriptures and in the Bhagavad Gita: 'Never was there a time when you did not exist, and there never will be a time when you cease to exist.'

Let me tell you how it will be. There's one for you, nineteen for me. Cause I'm the taxman.

Man can become purified, and with divine vision he can see God. You get pure by chanting, then you see Him.

For the forest to be green, each tree must be green.

The purpose of life is to find out 'Who am I?', 'Why am I here?' and 'Where am I going?'

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.

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.

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.
