I didn't earn that much in record royalties. You've only got to look at my sales in 1980 to figure that one out.

I play to all people, and I play to people not governments, and I believe strongly that all people are peaceful and would want peace.

George wrote Taxman, and I played guitar on it. He wrote it in anger at finding out what the taxman did. He had never known before then what could happen to your money.

Every time I felt low, I just put on an Elvis record and I'd feel great, beautiful.

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.

The good Lord made this world and everything that's in it. The way I see it, baby, you got to love it to the limit.

The medical argument for animal testing doesn't stand up. Even if it did, I don't think we should kill other species. We think we're so much better; I'm not sure we are. I tell people, We've beaten into submission every animal on the face of the Earth, so we are the clear winners of whatever battle is going on between the species. Couldn't we be generous? I really do think it's time to get nice. No need to keep beating up on them. I think we've got to show that we're kind.
