More quotes by Ringo Starr
I met The Beatles while we were playing in Germany. We'd seen them in Liverpool, but they were a nothing little band then, just putting it together. In fact, they weren't really a band at all.
Ringo Starr
When I run on stage now, a thousand people don't even see you, they're in their phone.
Ringo Starr
People in Liverpool don't move very far, you know.
Ringo Starr
I am, I definitely am. I'm really excited about that.
Ringo Starr
Roy Orbison was the only act that The Beatles didn't want to follow.
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
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
Of course I'm ambitious. What's wrong with that? Otherwise you sleep all day.
Ringo Starr

Ringo Starr
So this is America. They must be out of their minds.
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 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 always felt that a space is as good as a fill.
Ringo Starr
The point is it is amazing that the generations have joined in the Beatle madness and love the music. Who knew?
Ringo Starr
I like playing with a live band and I've got my act and we're fine.
Ringo Starr
Well, I'm getting happier all the time, which is very nice.
Ringo Starr
I'm not sleeping with all the women I appear with.
Ringo Starr
I mean, women are very important to me. I don't know, they just drive me crazy.
Ringo Starr
I don't particularly like messages, because everybody takes whatever they take from whatever.
Ringo Starr
Everything government touches turns to crap.
