I've never really been wanted.

Love is needing to be loved.

Look, I wasn't saying the Beatles are better than God or Jesus. I said 'Beatles' because it's easy for me to talk about Beatles. I could have said TV or the cinema, motor cars or anything popular and I would have gotten away with it.

We're all God. I'm not a god or the God, but we're all God and we're all potentially divine - and potentially evil.

Music touching my soul, the spirit dance was unfolding.

I used to be cruel to my woman, and physically - any woman. I was a hitter. I couldn't express myself and I hit. I fought men and I hit women. That is why I am always on about peace, you see. It is the most violent people who go for love and peace. Everything's the opposite. But I sincerely believe in love and peace. I am a violent man who has learned not to be violent and regrets his violence. I will have to be a lot older before I can face in public how I treated women as a youngster.

Jesus was all right, but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It's them twisting it that ruins it for me.
