More quotes by Paul McCartney
We don't eat anything that has to be killed for us.
Paul McCartney
Be cool and you'll be alright. That's rock & roll religion.
Paul McCartney
It was Elvis who really got me hooked on beat music. When I heard 'Heartbreak Hotel' I thought, this is it.
Paul McCartney
It's not unusual for writers to look backward. Because that's your pool of resources. If you were to write something now, I bet there's a pretty good chance you'd call on your teenage years, your experiences then, stuff you learned then.
Paul McCartney
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
I don't work at being ordinary.
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
When I left the Beatles, I made an album called McCartney that I played everything on. And it was kind of a cool experience. I felt like a professor in a laboratory, just crafting stuff and adding this, and putting this on and moving the microphone, and it was very homemade.
Paul McCartney
To get a big hit single you've got to go a bit dance. You've got to go a bit Britney. I don't think I can do that - well, I could but it wouldn't look very seemly!.
Paul McCartney
There are two things John and I always do when we're going to sit down and write a song. First of all we sit down. Then we think about writing a song.
Paul McCartney
I saw that Meryl Streep said, I just want to do my job well. And really, that's all I'm ever trying to do.
Paul McCartney
I don't ever try to make a serious social comment.
Paul McCartney
Help them to learn songs of joy, instead of burn, baby, burn.
Paul McCartney
The last time I twerked I was with @katyperry. She was rather good at it!
Paul McCartney
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
Somewhere down the line everyone must pay for their misdeeds.
Paul McCartney
And Jet, I thought the Major was a lady suffragette.
Paul McCartney
At the office where the paper grows, she takes a break, drinks another coffee, and she finds it hard to stay awake. It's just another day.
Paul McCartney
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.
Paul McCartney
John's time and effort were, in the main, spent on pretty honorable stuff. As for the other side, well, nobody's perfect, nobody's Jesus. And look what they did to him.
Paul McCartney
