I get by with a little help from my friends.

Music is everybody's possession. It's only publishers who think that people own it. If you were going to give Rock 'n' Roll another name you might as well call it Chuck Berry. We're more popular than Jesus now; I don't know which will go first - Rock and Roll or Christianity.

I didn't come after Elvis and Dylan, I've been around always. But if I see or meet a great artist, I love 'em.

I don't believe in Beatles, I just believe in me.

That's part of our policy, is not to be taken seriously because I think our opposition, whoever they may be in all their manifest forms, don't know how to handle humour.

One thing you can't hide - is when you're crippled inside.

There's nothing you can do that can't be done.
