More quotes by Paul McCartney
When you were young, and your heart, was an open book. You used to say, live and let live.
Paul McCartney
Help them to learn songs of joy, instead of burn, baby, burn.
Paul McCartney
I should be able to look at my accolades and go, Come on, Paul. That's enough. But there's still this little voice in the back of my brain that goes, No, no, no. You could do better. This person over here is excelling. Try harder! It still can be a little bit intimidating.
Paul McCartney
You can fill my appetite without me taking up a bite.
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
To this day, if I ever meet grownups who play ukulele, I love 'em.
Paul McCartney
A lot of the Beatles albums were very various, and we did it on purpose: We didn't want the next track to sound like the last one.
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
The last time I twerked I was with @katyperry. She was rather good at it!
Paul McCartney
If anyone wants to save the planet, all they have to do is just stop eating meat. That's the single most important thing you could do. It's staggering when you think about it. Vegetarianism takes care of so many things in one shot: ecology, famine, cruelty.
Paul McCartney
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.
Paul McCartney
Criticism didn't really stop us and it shouldn't ever stop anyone, because critics are only the people who can't get a record deal themselves.
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
Every time I felt low, I just put on an Elvis record and I'd feel great, beautiful.
Paul McCartney
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
There will be no wardrobe malfunction with me. I can promise you that.... I have nothing I will be exposing or taking off.
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
I never really got on that well with Yoko anyway. Strangely enough, I only started to get to know her after John's death.
Paul McCartney
Microphones are just like people, if you shout at them, they get scared.
Paul McCartney
I'm often reading a magazine and hearing about someone's new record, and I think: Oh, boy, that's gonna be better than me. It's a very common thing.
Paul McCartney
