Be straight with yourself just to maybe save a few more people from being stupid and being ignorant.

You can actually see God, and Hear Him, play with Him. It might sound crazy, but He is actually there.

I'd rather be one of the devotees of God than one of the straight, so-called sane or normal people who just don't understand that man is a spiritual being, that he has a soul.

I've been the same all along. I talk when I feel like it and I shut up when I don't feel like talking.

Heaven and hell is right now. ... You make it heaven or you make it hell by your actions.

We first got marijuana from an older drummer with another group in Liverpool. We didn't actually try it until after we'd been to Hamburg. I remember we smoked it in the band room in a gig in Southport and we all learnt to do the Twist that night, which was popular at the time. We were all seeing if we could do it. Everybody was saying, 'This stuff isn't doing anything.' It was like that old joke where a party is going on and two hippies are up floating on the ceiling, and one is saying to the other, 'This stuff doesn't work, man.'

Make love, take love, but you should give love. And try to live love.
