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.

Image
Through all ages, great saints have remained as living proof that this non-temporary, permanent state of God consciousness can be revived in all living souls.
George Harrison
Image
Krishna is God, and by chanting His Holy Names, the devotee quickly develops God-consciousness.
George Harrison
Image
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
Image
The aim is to get as much going out the back as is coming in. You've got to do that because for everything you get in you've got to give something out.
George Harrison
Image
I hope somebody does this to all my crap demos when I'm dead, making them into hit songs.
George Harrison
Image
And the time will come when you see, we’re all one, and life flows on within you and without you.
George Harrison
Image
We used to send up the idea of getting to the top. John would shout, Where are we going, fellas? We'd shout back, To the top, Johnny!
George Harrison
Image
It's in the films and songs and all your magazines. It's everywhere that you may go, the devil's radio.
George Harrison
Image
Man can become purified, and with divine vision he can see God. You get pure by chanting, then you see Him.
George Harrison
Image
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
Image
It's by your own actions you're able to get more in a mess or out of one. It's your own actions that relieve or bind you.
George Harrison
Image
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
Image
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
Image
Try to realize it's all within yourself no one else can make you change, and to see you're only very small and life flows on within you and without you.
George Harrison
Image
I was so young when I was born.
George Harrison
Image
I find the older one gets the harder it is to keep the weight off, even if one isn't eating very fattening foods. Once, I was able to put foods like those away, and they didn't show up on the bathroom scales the next morning. But that was when I was very physically active, travelling all over the world and burning up more calories.
George Harrison
Image
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
Image
The saddest thing was actually getting fed up with one another. It's like growing up in a family. When you get to a certain age, you want to go off and get your own girl and your own car, split up a bit.
George Harrison
Image
Rap music is just computerised crap. I listen to Top of the Pops and after three songs I feel like killing someone.
George Harrison
Image
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.
