I hate the idea of success robbing you of your private life.

But you know, as a kid I would have thought of a vegetarian as a wimp.

I used to go round to Aunt Mimi's house and John would be at the typewriter, which was fairly unusual in Liverpool. None of my mates even knew what a typewriter was. Well they knew what it was but they didn't hae one. Nobody had one.

I never look forward, because I have no idea about how any of it happened to getting here. I've no idea how the next five years are going to be.

Animation is not just for children - it's also for adults who take drugs.

I don't work at being ordinary.

One of my great memories of John is from when we were having some argument. I was disagreeing and we were calling each other names. We let it settle for a second and then he lowered his glasses and he said: "It's only me." And then he put his glasses back on again. To me, that was John. Those were the moments when I actually saw him without the facade, the armor, which I loved as well, like anyone else. It was a beautiful suit of armor. But it was wonderful when he let the visor down and you'd just see the John Lennon that he was frightened to reveal to the world.
