More quotes by Paul McCartney
Hamburg totally wrecked us. I remember getting home to England and my dad thought I was half-dead. I looked like a skeleton, I hadn't noticed the change, I'd been having such a ball!
Paul McCartney
Personal differences, musical differences, business differences, but most of all because I have a better time with my family.
Paul McCartney
Sadness isn't sadness. It's happiness in a black jacket. Tears are not tears. They're balls of laughter dipped in salt. Death is not death. It's life that's jumped off a tall cliff.
Paul McCartney
There will be no wardrobe malfunction with me. I can promise you that.... I have nothing I will be exposing or taking off.
Paul McCartney
As far as art's concerned, I probably like modern art more than traditional art.
Paul McCartney
I'm often reading a magazine and hearing about someone's new record, and I think: Oh, boy, that's gonna be better than me. It's a very common thing.
Paul McCartney
My thing is about following the accidental, more than trying to paint an accurate bowl of apples. I enjoy most following the paint. It leads me somewhere else. I think I enjoy just letting the magic unfold and letting the spirit of the paint tell me where we're going.
Paul McCartney
Sometimes you write a song in a certain era and it's got a certain kind of significance.
Paul McCartney
Every love song I write is for Linda.
Paul McCartney
But you know, as a kid I would have thought of a vegetarian as a wimp.
Paul McCartney
There's nothing like the eureka moment of knocking off a song that didn't exist before - I won't compare it to sex, but it lasts longer.
Paul McCartney
To get a big hit single you've got to go a bit dance. You've got to go a bit Britney. I don't think I can do that - well, I could but it wouldn't look very seemly!.
Paul McCartney
Love doesn't come in a minute, sometimes it doesn't come at all.
Paul McCartney
Where I come from, you don't really talk about how much you're earning. Those things are private. My dad never told my mum how much he was earning. I'm certainly not going to tell the world. I'm doing well.
Paul McCartney
I think the idea of getting out of a traffic jam and getting out of work each week and going and doing all this stuff would be really exhausting.
Paul McCartney
I love the past. There are parts of the past I hate, of course.
Paul McCartney
Be cool and you'll be alright. That's rock & roll religion.
Paul McCartney
Most people don't know that I invented the selfie.
Paul McCartney
My mum died when I was 14. That is a kind of strange age to lose a mother. John lost his mum when he was 17.
Paul McCartney
I can't manage without homeopathy. In fact, I never go anywhere without homeopathic remedies.
Paul McCartney
