Most people don't know that I invented the selfie.

I think when you're making an album, as the songs are piling up, one of the good things about it is that you will often write the song that you need.

Somebody said to me, 'But the Beatles were anti-materialistic.' That's a huge myth. John and I literally used to sit down and say, 'Now, let's write a swimming pool.'

I'm a pretty hands-on dad and make the most of my custody. I take care of my little one whenever I can, and she determines what I can do and where I can do it.

I love to hear a choir. I love the humanity... to see the faces of real people devoting themselves to a piece of music. I like the teamwork. It makes me feel optimistic about the human race when I see them cooperating like that.

I am alive and well and unconcerned about the rumors of my death. But if I were dead, I would be the last to know.

I saw that Meryl Streep said, I just want to do my job well. And really, that's all I'm ever trying to do.
