More quotes by Ringo Starr
When I run on stage now, a thousand people don't even see you, they're in their phone.
Ringo Starr
I've never really done anything to create what has happened. It creates itself. I'm here because it happened. But I didn't do anything to make it happen apart from saying 'Yes'
Ringo Starr
I am truly grateful. I'm a grateful human being.
Ringo Starr
I've always felt that a space is as good as a fill.
Ringo Starr
I am, I definitely am. I'm really excited about that.
Ringo Starr
I mean, I was born the day war broke out, but I don't remember all the bombs though they did actually break up Liverpool, you know. I remember when I was a little older, there was big gaps in all the streets where houses used to be. We used to play over them.
Ringo Starr
Gaps can be very emotional. I mean, that's in my drumming. When I drum, you know, I don't need to drum all over the track. I play with the singer and I can back off.
Ringo Starr
Of course I'm ambitious. What's wrong with that? Otherwise you sleep all day.
Ringo Starr
I've always been playing with other people, and that's how I learned. I got a kit of drums I couldn't play, but I also knew a guitarist and a friend of mine played bass and could teach us bass, and we just played. And I learned.
Ringo Starr
I feel the older I get, the more I'm learning to handle life. Being on this quest for a long time, it's all about finding yourself.
Ringo Starr
First and foremost I am a drummer. After that, I'm other things... But I didn't play drums to make money.
Ringo Starr
Ten years from now, it'll all be the blues because that's the only speed I'll be able to play
Ringo Starr
I hope the fans will take up meditation instead of drugs.
Ringo Starr
I feel as though that was someone else playing. I was possessed!
Ringo Starr
I've said this over and over again, but I love being in a band.
Ringo Starr
Gene Autry was the most. It may sound like a joke - Go and have a look in my bedroom, It's covered with Gene Autry posters. He was my first musical influence.
Ringo Starr
The trouble with leaving your feet on the ground is you never get to take your pants off.
Ringo Starr
That's when we decided to stop in '66. Everyone thought we toured for years, you know, but we didn't. I joined in '62, and we'd finished touring in '66 to go into the studio where we could hear each other... and create any fantasy that came out of anybody's brain.
Ringo Starr
I couldn't put my finger on one reason why we broke up. It was time, and we were spreading out. They were spreading out more than I was. I would've stayed with the band.
Ringo Starr
I'd like to be in a man band, but with Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and Keith Richards. We'd have a rocky edge.
Ringo Starr
