My thing is about following the accidental, more than trying to paint an accurate bowl of apples. I enjoy most following the paint. It leads me somewhere else. I think I enjoy just letting the magic unfold and letting the spirit of the paint tell me where we're going.

There’s nothing as glamorous to me as a record store.

We were a savage little lot, Liverpool kids, not pacifist or vegetarian or anything. But I feel I've gone beyond that, and that it was immature to be so prejudiced and believe in all the stereotypes.

Someone like John would want to end the Beatle period and start the Yoko period. He wouldn't like either to interfere with the other.

I realize now that taking drugs was like taking an aspirin without having a headache.

Alas, it looks like those unsubstantiated rumours about me are about to come true after all this time.

I go back so far I'm in front of me.
