My soul is that of a drummer.... I didn't do it to become rich and famous. I did it because it was the love of my life.

More quotes by Ringo Starr
I love being in a band. I love playing with other human beings. I've never practiced drums unless there was another human being in the room.
Ringo Starr
When they come here, the English make a choice: New York or L.A. L.A. suited me better, I just feel comfortable here.
Ringo Starr
America: It's like Britain, only with buttons.
Ringo Starr
I made all my mistakes playing with people.
Ringo Starr
And in a marriage you can't TRY and be married. You're married or you're not married... as far as I'm concerned.
Ringo Starr
I'm not sleeping with all the women I appear with.
Ringo Starr
I've never broken a bone in my life, or in my body.
Ringo Starr
I want to deal with what's in front of me now to the best of my abilities, and sometimes that's not very good. But a lot of the days it is really great.
Ringo Starr
The second side of Abbey Road is my favorite.
Ringo Starr
I am, I definitely am. I'm really excited about that.
Ringo Starr
I think the most exciting thing is that you expect people our age to know the music, but actually a lot of kids know the music, and if anything is left, we have left really good music, and that's the important part, not the mop-tops or whatever.
Ringo Starr
We thought we'd be really big in Liverpool.
Ringo Starr
Every time, my syncopation is different, because I can never play the same fill twice. I just can't, never have been able to. Even as a Beatle, they'd say, 'Oh, double-track that.' I don't know how you do that, because when I'm in a fill I'm sort of this blackout, just this pure me coming out and I can't pure me the same, twice. So, that's that.
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'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
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
I've never gone to the bedroom when I was starting out and practiced away.
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
Last night I had a peace dream.
Ringo Starr
When I run on stage now, a thousand people don't even see you, they're in their phone.
