I'm actually doing what I want with my life. I do sometime think I could just shut up and rest on my laurels and say: you know what guys, I'll operate out of the pocket you put me in.... but no way! No way I'm gonna do that! I'd just get bored stiff the first minute.

Everybody's talking about the President, we all chipped in for a bag of cement.

Going to do it to you sweet banana, like it's never been done, and we'll get high, high, high, in the mid-day sun.

George wrote Taxman, and I played guitar on it. He wrote it in anger at finding out what the taxman did. He had never known before then what could happen to your money.

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.

None of us wanted to be the bass player. In our minds he was the fat guy who always played at the back.
