More quotes by Paul McCartney
I don't work at being ordinary.
Paul McCartney

Paul McCartney
I'm always writing songs, and I've got a bunch that I want to record.
Paul McCartney
Personal differences, musical differences, business differences, but most of all because I have a better time with my family.
Paul McCartney
It's not unusual for writers to look backward. Because that's your pool of resources. If you were to write something now, I bet there's a pretty good chance you'd call on your teenage years, your experiences then, stuff you learned then.
Paul McCartney
Most people don't know that I invented the selfie.
Paul McCartney
The last time I twerked I was with @katyperry. She was rather good at it!
Paul McCartney
She is the rock 'n' roll queen. Weirdly enough, that is one of the things her reign will be remembered for. Queen Elizabeth I, we remember Raleigh Queen Elizabeth II it's gonna be the Beatles.
Paul McCartney
There are a lot of artists who haven't lost anything to domesticity. In my case, it probably did happen.
Paul McCartney
Everybody's talking about the President, we all chipped in for a bag of cement.
