Sometimes you write a song in a certain era and it's got a certain kind of significance.

If this ever changing world in which we live in makes you give in and cry, say live and let die.

Sometimes when you write a thing you think, 'Oh, this is good', and it's not a modesty or an immodesty thing, you just... it's just the same with anything; when you write a piece you just figure, 'Oh yeah, I'm on a roll here. This is good; I'm getting the hang of this'. Some pieces are better than others.

When you were young, and your heart, was an open book. You used to say, live and let live.

If anyone had told me in the '60s that 20 years later we'd still be talking about whether pot was worse than this or that, I'd have said, Oh, come off it, boys.

I got my first guitar when I was 15, and I just used to fool about with it, more or less, as time went by, though, I got more interested.

There is good and bad in everyone.
