We were a savage little lot, Liverpool kids, not pacifist or vegetarian or anything. But I feel I've gone beyond that, and that it was immature to be so prejudiced and believe in all the stereotypes.

More quotes by Paul McCartney
All we ever got in those [early] days was Where are you from? Liverpool? You'll have to be in London before you can do it. Nobody's ever done it from Liverpool.
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
Criticism didn't really stop us and it shouldn't ever stop anyone, because critics are only the people who can't get a record deal themselves.
Paul McCartney
When you're wide awake say it for goodness sake, it's gonna be a great day.
Paul McCartney
But with writers, there's nothing wrong with melancholy. It's an important color in writing.
Paul McCartney
I'm not really comfortable singing without accompanying myself on stage - I'm not used to it.

I do like Eddie Van Halen as a player. He gets it right quite often.
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
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
I'm mad, you know? I don't think of retiring at all.
Paul McCartney
I didn't earn that much in record royalties. You've only got to look at my sales in 1980 to figure that one out.
Paul McCartney
I never really got on that well with Yoko anyway. Strangely enough, I only started to get to know her after John's death.
Paul McCartney
Microphones are just like people, if you shout at them, they get scared.
Paul McCartney
Why would I retire? Sit at home and watch TV? No thanks. I'd rather be out playing.
Paul McCartney
The long and winding road that leads to your door / Will never disappear, / I've seen that road before it always leads me here, / Leads me to your door.
Paul McCartney
We were pretty good mates until the Beatles started to split up and Yoko came into it. It was more like old army buddies splitting up on account of wedding bells.
Paul McCartney
I definitely did look up to John. We all looked up to John. He was older and he was very much the leader he was the quickest wit and the smartest.
Paul McCartney
Many years ago I was fishing, and as I was reeling in the poor fish, I realised, 'I am killing him - all for the passing pleasure it brings me'. Something inside me clicked. I realised as I watched him fight for breath that his life was as important to him as mine is to me.
Paul McCartney
