People in Liverpool don't move very far, you know.
Ringo Starr
Image
I never studied anything, really. I didn't study the drums. I joined bands and made all the mistakes onstage.
Ringo Starr
Image
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
Image
Ten years from now, it'll all be the blues because that's the only speed I'll be able to play

Wake up meat head, don't pretend that you are dead.
Ringo Starr
Image
No, no, no, I don't snort no more, I'm tired of waking up on the floor. No thank you please, it only makes me sneeze, then it makes it hard to find the door.
Ringo Starr
Image
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.

The point is it is amazing that the generations have joined in the Beatle madness and love the music. Who knew?
Ringo Starr
Image
Every night there's a moment that I just wanna go back to bed. I just get nervous. Then I run on (stage) and as soon as I grab the mic then I'm fine.
Ringo Starr
Image
I am truly grateful. I'm a grateful human being.
Ringo Starr
Image
I'm always good for starting a bit of a tune and the first verse, but after that I just can never go anywhere. It takes me years, that's why I'm so slow.
Ringo Starr
Image
The business is so driven by money, everyone's trying to get it right.
Ringo Starr
Image
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
Image
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
Image
I've never had any big ideas about being the solo.
Ringo Starr
Image
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.

Roy Orbison was the only act that The Beatles didn't want to follow.
Ringo Starr
Image
I love that about the Beatles, that the music is still going on more than the haircut, you know.
Ringo Starr
Image
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.
