Life is an energy field, a bunch of molecules. And these particular molecules formed to make these four guys, who then formed into this band called the Beatles and did all that work. I have to think that was something metaphysical. Something alchemic. Something that must be thought of as magic.

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.

Love doesn't come in a minute, sometimes it doesn't come at all.

Paul's last words to Linda: You're up on your beautiful Appaloosa stallion. It's a fine spring day. We're riding through the woods. The bluebells are all out, and the sky is clear-blue.

We were a savage little lot, Liverpool kids, not pacifist or vegetarian or anything. But I feel I've gone beyond that, and that it was immature to be so prejudiced and believe in all the stereotypes.
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.

Everybody's talking about the President, we all chipped in for a bag of cement.

My mum died when I was 14. That is a kind of strange age to lose a mother. John lost his mum when he was 17.

We don't eat anything that has to be killed for us. We've been through a lot and we've reached a stage where we really value life.
Paul McCartney

Home in her apartment she'd dwell 'til the man from her dreams comes to break the spell.

Sometimes when you write a thing you think, 'Oh, this is good', and it's not a modesty or an immodesty thing, you just... it's just the same with anything when you write a piece you just figure, 'Oh yeah, I'm on a roll here. This is good I'm getting the hang of this'. Some pieces are better than others.
