Paul McCartney
George Martin, he's very good at a very sort of lush, sweet arrangement.
Paul McCartney
When you were young, and your heart, was an open book. You used to say, live and let live.

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
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
You're always looking at last year, or 10 years ago, or your school days, or your teenage years, your formative years. Because that's exactly what they are, they're your formative years.
Paul McCartney
We don't eat anything that has to be killed for us.
Paul McCartney
I do like Eddie Van Halen as a player. He gets it right quite often.
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
There is good and bad in everyone.
Paul McCartney
In some ways we live in a world where things appear to be very logical, very rational, and mechanical aspects of our world are rather scientific and rather straightforward.
Paul McCartney
I'm singing 'English Tea' from my new album 'Chaos and Creation in the Backyard.' I have a cup of tea in the morning, so it's something good to wake up to.
Paul McCartney
It's as serious as anyone ever gets, you know. It's just words. It's just good poetry.
Paul McCartney
People would say to me, “Hey man, you look just like Paul McCartney”, and I'd say: “I wish I had his money!”
Paul McCartney
