My message is a peaceful one and I hope that the idea will spread.
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
I knew the words to 25 rock songs, so I got in the group. Long Tall Sally and Tutti-Frutti, that got me in. That was my audition.

Paul McCartney
I love to hear a choir. I love the humanity... to see the faces of real people devoting themselves to a piece of music. I like the teamwork. It makes me feel optimistic about the human race when I see them cooperating like that.
Paul McCartney

If I ever get out of here, thought of giving it all away to a registered charity.
Paul McCartney
There must be a better way to make the things we want, a way that doesn't spoil the sky, or the rain or the land
Paul McCartney
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
I think it's something to do with the structural quality of the songs. We weren't actually trying to make stuff that was cool, or of the moment, although a lot of it was. We were trying to make stuff that was good enough to stick around and lo and behold, it has.
Paul McCartney
I'm always writing songs, and I've got a bunch that I want to record.
Paul McCartney
Ebony and ivory live together in perfect harmony, side by side on my keyboard piano, oh Lord, why don't we?
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
