More quotes by 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
Ten years from now, it'll all be the blues because that's the only speed I'll be able to play
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 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
I don't particularly like messages, because everybody takes whatever they take from whatever.
Ringo Starr
Peace and love, peace and love!

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
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
I hope the fans will take up meditation instead of drugs.
Ringo Starr
I've never had any big ideas about being the solo.
Ringo Starr
I am, I definitely am. I'm really excited about that.
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 don't talk about myself in the third person, and I laugh at people who do.
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 used to wear different rings when I first got called Ringo in about 19, about, umm, '59 I got called Ringo.
Ringo Starr
I have no anonymity.I've not had a drink in nine and a half years. That's my whole story right there.
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
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.
