More quotes by Paul McCartney
John's time and effort were, in the main, spent on pretty honorable stuff. As for the other side, well, nobody's perfect, nobody's Jesus. And look what they did to him.
Paul McCartney
Every time I felt low, I just put on an Elvis record and I'd feel great, beautiful.
Paul McCartney
If I ever get out of here, thought of giving it all away to a registered charity.
Paul McCartney
I'm not really comfortable singing without accompanying myself on stage - I'm not used to it.
Paul McCartney
When a war is over I think it's a cowardly thing to leave the war behind you in minefields that hit women and children and the most vulnerable. Imagine the war is finished and you go to work and there are snipers shooting at you. Imagine taking your kids to the beach and you find that the beach is blowing up beneath you. Like there's nowhere safe.
Paul McCartney
I would quite like to have been a 1920s writer.
Paul McCartney
I am not religious, but I am spiritual.
Paul McCartney
Be cool and you'll be alright. That's rock & roll religion.
Paul McCartney
I used to think that all my Wings stuff was second-rate stuff, but I began to meet younger kids, not kids from my Beatle generation, who would say, We really love this song.
Paul McCartney
I should be able to look at my accolades and go, Come on, Paul. That's enough. But there's still this little voice in the back of my brain that goes, No, no, no. You could do better. This person over here is excelling. Try harder! It still can be a little bit intimidating.
Paul McCartney
But you know, as a kid I would have thought of a vegetarian as a wimp.
Paul McCartney
I don't take me seriously. If we get some giggles, I don't mind.
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
I have always adored Mahler, and Mahler was a major influence on the music of the Beatles. John and me used to sit and do the Kindertotenlieder and Wunderhorn for hours, we'd take turns singing and playing the piano. We thought Mahler was gear.
Paul McCartney
When I write, there are times -- not always -- when I hear John (Lennon) in my head, ... I'll think, OK, what would we have done here?, and I can hear him gripe or approve.
Paul McCartney
I play to all people, and I play to people not governments, and I believe strongly that all people are peaceful and would want peace.
Paul McCartney
Every love song I write is for Linda.
Paul McCartney
Personal differences, musical differences, business differences, but most of all because I have a better time with my family.
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
Personally, I think you can put any interpretation you want on anything, but when someone suggests that Can't Buy Me Love is about a prostitute, I draw the line. That's going too far.
Paul McCartney
