Bend like the willow, winds gonna blow you hard and cold tonight. Life as it happens, nobody warns you, willow hold on tight.
Paul McCartney
The willow turns his back on inclement weather. And if he can do it, we can do it.
Paul McCartney
Life is an energy field, a bunch of molecules. And these particular molecules formed to make these four guys, who then formed into this band called the Beatles and did all that work. I have to think that was something metaphysical. Something alchemic. Something that must be thought of as magic.
Paul McCartney
And I loved Fats Waller. I love his instrumental abilities, his vocal abilities and his sense of humor.
Paul McCartney

Paul McCartney
You can fill my appetite without me taking up a bite.
Paul McCartney

Paul McCartney
If this ever changing world in which we live in makes you give in and cry, say live and let die.
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
When you first get money, you buy all these things so no one thinks you're mean, and you spread it around. You get a chauffeur and you find yourself thrown around the back of this car and you think, I was happier when I had my own little car! I could drive myself!
Paul McCartney
My dad was a particularly polite kind of guy, very courteous. So when we got on a bus, he would always encourage me and my younger brother to get up and offer our seat to an old lady. I grew up kind of liking that, thinking, y'know, that's a nice thing, that's a courtesy.
Paul McCartney
I used to think anyone doing anything weird was weird. Now I know that it is the people that call others weird that are weird.
Paul McCartney
If I ever get out of here, thought of giving it all away to a registered charity.
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 believe that in the future meditation could be as commonplace in schools and society as eco-awareness is now. It interests me that an ancient cure may be the solution to a modern problem.
Paul McCartney
When we were starting off as kids, just the idea of maybe going to do this as a living instead of getting what we thought was going to be a boring job, was exciting.
Paul McCartney
I'm not really comfortable singing without accompanying myself on stage - I'm not used to it.
Paul McCartney
The good Lord made this world and everything that's in it. The way I see it, baby, you got to love it to the limit.
Paul McCartney
This was one of the best things about Lennon and McCartney, the competitive element within the team. It was great. But hard to live with.
Paul McCartney
I would quite like to have been a 1920s writer.
