More quotes by Ringo Starr
I think we should have understanding and love and peace. I mean, peace and love has been my situation. You hear that in the song. I'm trying to promote that now: peace and love and understanding.
Ringo Starr
I've never had any big ideas about being the solo.
Ringo Starr
I've never broken a bone in my life, or in my body.
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 know when I feel good when I play. There's a closeness with musicians you only get from playing live, even in the studio it's still playing live. For me, it's what expands my soul.
Ringo Starr
The kids are interested in the music of them. They're not interested in mop-tops and Beatle boots and crazy suits. It's all down to the music now - that's what they hear, and that's what they love.
Ringo Starr
Roy Orbison was the only act that The Beatles didn't want to follow.
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
I hope the fans will take up meditation instead of drugs.
Ringo Starr
When you're in a band - before it got to grunge - you dressed the bit. So yeah, I've always had an attitude with the clothes.
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 like Beethoven, especially the poems.
Ringo Starr
We thought we'd be really big in Liverpool.
Ringo Starr
I don't particularly like messages, because everybody takes whatever they take from whatever.
Ringo Starr
I'm warning you with peace and love I have too much to do. So no more fan mail. Thank you, thank you. And no objects to be signed, nothing. Peace and love, peace and love.
Ringo Starr
I play weird. I'm always just behind. We [drummers] only have so much room. We're not guitarists.
Ringo Starr
In 1989 I sort of got back into the music business and one of the reasons I got back in is [that] I put the first All Stars band together. It's actually progressed from that every other year, or every two years, I've put that together...more and more realizing that's what I do.
Ringo Starr
Peace and love, peace and love!
Ringo Starr
Believe me, I wish this song was yours instead of mine.
Ringo Starr
I've said this over and over again, but I love being in a band.
Ringo Starr
