More quotes by Paul McCartney

Paul McCartney
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.
Paul McCartney

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
But with writers, there's nothing wrong with melancholy. It's an important color in writing.
Paul McCartney
All at once we see things in our skies, and we both realize it together. Well you know they were wrong, get on the right thing.
Paul McCartney
Close your eyes and I'll kiss you, Tomorrow I'll miss you.
Paul McCartney
I'm not really comfortable singing without accompanying myself on stage - I'm not used to it.
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
Think globally, act locally.
Paul McCartney
When two great saints meet, it's a humbling experience.
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.
Paul McCartney
I think globally and act locally.
Paul McCartney
It was Elvis who really got me hooked on beat music. When I heard 'Heartbreak Hotel' I thought, this is it.
