So many times, I will have people tell me what I did when I was younger. There's so much being written [about] the early Beatles period, and even pre-Beatles period. And people will say, "Oh, he did that because that, and that happened because of that." And I'll be reading and think, "Well, that didn't happen" and, "That's not why I did that." Like anyone's history, you remember what went down better than people who weren't there.

Buy, buy, says the sign in the shop window; Why, why, says the junk in the yard.

The best thing I ever saw was a man who loved his wife.

Nothing pleases me more than to go into a room and come out with a piece of music.

I'm always writing songs, and I've got a bunch that I want to record.

Somewhere down the line everyone must pay for their misdeeds.

I'm not into, Hey, what's your sign? or any of that. But I don't know how I got here, and I don't know how I write songs. I don't know why I breathe.
