When you were young, and your heart, was an open book. You used to say, live and let live.
Paul McCartney
Image
Personally, I think you can put any interpretation you want on anything, but when someone suggests that Can't Buy Me Love is about a prostitute, I draw the line. That's going too far.
Paul McCartney

I think globally and act locally.
Paul McCartney
Image
There's nothing like the eureka moment of knocking off a song that didn't exist before - I won't compare it to sex, but it lasts longer.
Paul McCartney

Being in the audience actually looks like quite a lot of fun.
Paul McCartney

I believe that in the future meditation could be as commonplace in schools and society as eco-awareness is now. It interests me that an ancient cure may be the solution to a modern problem.
Paul McCartney

When you get the money, you still need to keep going you don't stop. There has to be something else. I think it's the freedom to do what you want and to live your dreams.
Paul McCartney

I am alive and well and unconcerned about the rumors of my death. But if I were dead, I would be the last to know.
Paul McCartney

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.

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.

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

Sadness isn't sadness. It's happiness in a black jacket. Tears are not tears. They're balls of laughter dipped in salt. Death is not death. It's life that's jumped off a tall cliff.
Paul McCartney
Image
It's like there was me, then the Beatles phase, and now I'm me again.
Paul McCartney
Image
I am not religious, but I am spiritual.
Paul McCartney
Image
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.

As far as art's concerned, I probably like modern art more than traditional art.
Paul McCartney

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

There's nothing bigger than being asked to perform at the Super Bowl.

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.

I definitely did look up to John. We all looked up to John. He was older and he was very much the leader he was the quickest wit and the smartest.
