❝ I felt with us four it was magical and it was telepathy. When we were working in the studio sometimes it was just-it’s indescribable, really. Although there were four of us, there was one of us, all of our hearts were beating at the same time. ❞

❝ The Beatles felt like it was forever, but actually it was only ten years. It felt like twenty, the amount we packed into those ten years-all the music, all the different looks, even: the beards, the mustaches, the clean shavens, the little Cardin jackets, all that. It seemed like a long, long time. But I loved it. ❞

The White Album had some great music. I liked the musician situation, not everything else around it. Sgt. Pepper is my least favorite, though it had some amazing stuff on it - it was great for mainly John and Paul to create those sounds and get the violins and instruments like that, because they were their songs; and when it came out it was the album…Also, Abbey Road, the second side. And ‘Yer Blues’ on The White Album, you can’t top it. ❞

❝ I remember once looking into a mirror and saying to myself: ‘Ere, it’s not that big, is it?’ You could say now I’ve come to terms with my nose. It’s the talking point when people discuss me. I have to laugh-it goes up one nostril and out the other. ❞

❝ I loved The Cavern. It was a claustrophobic hell, but it was a great one. ❞
