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.

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
If wed known we were going to be The Beatles wed have tried harder.
George Harrison
...won't you give some bread to get the starving fed
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
It would be great if everyone chanted Hare Krishna. Everybody would benefit by doing it.
George Harrison
We are not these bodies, just souls having a bodily experience.
George Harrison
Throughout much of our lives, our association with the temporary has risen. This transitory body, a sack of bones and flesh, is considered erroneously as our true body and we have accepted this temporary condition as conclusive.
George Harrison
Yesterday, today was tomorrow. And tomorrow, today will be yesterday.
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 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
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
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
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.
George Harrison
Sunrise doesn't last all morning, a cloudburst doesn't last all day, seems my love is up and has left you with no warning. It's not always going to be this grey. All things must pass, all things must pass away.
George Harrison
I was quite responsible for stirring things up. I conspired to get Ringo in for good I talked to Paul and John until they came round to the idea.
George Harrison
It is an outrage that people can take other people's lives when they obviously haven't got their own lives in order.
George Harrison
I don't know how you were diverted You were perverted too. I don't know how you were inverted No one alerted you.
George Harrison
Many people fear the words Lord and God.
George Harrison
Stop thinking that if Britain or America or Russia or the West or whatever becomes superior, then we'll beat them, and then we'll all have a rest and live happily ever after. That doesn't work.
George Harrison
Each individual has to burn out his own karma and escape from the chains of maya (illusion), reincarnation, and all that.
George Harrison
