More quotes by Paul McCartney
Microphones are just like people, if you shout at them, they get scared.
Paul McCartney
And I loved Fats Waller. I love his instrumental abilities, his vocal abilities and his sense of humor.
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
I hate the idea of success robbing you of your private life.
Paul McCartney
The Pound is sinking, the Peso's failing, the Lira's reeling, and feeling quite appalling.
Paul McCartney
Many years ago I was fishing, and as I was reeling in the poor fish, I realised, 'I am killing him - all for the passing pleasure it brings me'. Something inside me clicked. I realised as I watched him fight for breath that his life was as important to him as mine is to me.
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 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
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
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.
Paul McCartney
I feel that if I said anything about John, I would have to sit here for five days and say it all. Or I don't want to say anything.
Paul McCartney
I do like Eddie Van Halen as a player. He gets it right quite often.
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
Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds actually wasn't meant to say LSD It was a drawing that John's son brought home from school Lucy was a kid in his school.
Paul McCartney
When I see bacon, I see a pig, I see a little friend, and that's why I can't eat it. Simple as that.
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 got my first guitar when I was 15, and I just used to fool about with it, more or less, as time went by, though, I got more interested.
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
Where I come from, you don't really talk about how much you're earning. Those things are private. My dad never told my mum how much he was earning. I'm certainly not going to tell the world. I'm doing well.
Paul McCartney
I took my brains out and stretched them on the rack, now I'm not too sure I'm gonna get them back.
Paul McCartney
