Songwriting is like ... being possessed. You try to go to sleep but the song won't let you.

I believe that as soon as people want peace in the world they can have it. The trouble is they are not aware they can get it.

I'm not going to change the way I look or the way I feel to conform to anything.

The Beatles is over, but John, Paul, George, and Ringo...God knows what relationship they'll have in the future. I don't know. I still love those guys! Because they'll always be those people who were that part of my life.

I once had a girl, or should I say she once had me.

I'm a moldy moldy man I'm moldy thru and thru I'm a moldy moldy man You would not think it true I'm moldy til my eyeballs I'm moldy til my toe I will not dance I shyballs I'm such a humble Joe.

What I'd have liked would have been the money and the hit records without the fame.
