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.

If anyone was the Fifth Beatle, it was Brian [Epstein].

People don't like land mines, especially the survivors and the people who are living in the countries with them. They think they are cowardly, like we do, so I think it's down to the governments to actually just listen to the people and sign the treaty and get rid of all these things and there would be an end to it.

It's a lifelong gift, something you can call on at any time.

I'm actually doing what I want with my life. I do sometime think I could just shut up and rest on my laurels and say: you know what guys, I'll operate out of the pocket you put me in.... but no way! No way I'm gonna do that! I'd just get bored stiff the first minute.

All at once we see things in our skies, and we both realize it together. Well you know they were wrong, get on the right thing.

The interesting thing about the Beatles was: The music was one thing, but we kind of symbolized a certain kind of freedom at a time when people of our generation were just growing up and just becoming adults.
