It's easier to tell a lie, than to tell the truth. It's easier to kill a fly, than it is to turn it loose.

More quotes by 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
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
The response that comes from chanting is in the form of bliss, or spiritual happiness, which is a much higher taste than any happiness found here in the material world. That's why I say that the more you do it, the more you don't want to stop, because it feels so nice and peaceful.
George Harrison
Life goes on within you and without you
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.
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
It's wonderful to look back and think you were part of a force that shaped modern music and influenced the public in so many ways. However, that's all in the past.
George Harrison
The action that I've started, sometime I'll have to face. My influence in motion, rebounding back through space.
George Harrison
All the world is birthday cake, so take a piece, but not too much.
George Harrison
I can see the Beatles sticking together forever, really. We've been together a long time.
George Harrison
I don't feel the need for unusual or glamorous foods like caviar, and I tend more towards ordinary, satisfying food.
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
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
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.
George Harrison
For the forest to be green, each tree must be green.
George Harrison
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.
George Harrison
When somebody does something which everybody really wants to do, then it makes everyone else try a little bit harder and strive for something better, and it's good.
George Harrison
We don't, as a collective life on this planet, all get groovy together or all sink into ignorance together. One by one we liberate our souls, our individual souls, from the cycle by our own realizations.
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
I had no ambition when I was a kid other than to play guitar and get in a rock 'n' roll band. I don't really like to be the guy in the white suit at the front. Like in the Beatles, I was the one who kept quiet at the back and let the other egos be at the front.
