I want to be with my best friend. My best friend, my wife. Who could ask for anything more?

I think a lot of bad things have happened in the name of the church and in the name of Christ. Therefore I shy away from church...

The magic of the music seems to light the way.

I still don't know how to express the really delicate personal stuff. People think that Plastic Ono is very personal, but there are some subtleties of emotions which I cannot seem to express in pop music, and it frustrates me. Maybe that's why I still search for other ways of expressing myself. Song writing is a limiting experience in some ways - writing down words that have to rhyme.

I only ever asked two people to work with me as a partner. One was Paul McCartney and the other Yoko Ono. Paul and me were the Beatles.

Paul and I know each other on a lot of different levels that very few people know about.

I don't want to be king, I want to be real.
