America: It's like Britain, only with buttons.

I play weird. I'm always just behind. We [drummers] only have so much room. We're not guitarists.

The main thing is not to be afraid of that, to get to a place where you'll go gracefully, not screaming and kicking up a fuss.

The business is so driven by money, everyone's trying to get it right.

Being in The Beatles was a short, incredible period of my life. I had 22 years leading up to it, and it was all over eight years later.

With God's help, I've not had a drink in nine and a half years. That's my whole story right there. And because of that, I'm doing this. I'm making records, I'm touring. I was so involved in just getting brain damaged, I wasn't doing anything. I had great ideas, many notebooks filled with notes, some of them I can read and some of them I just can't read, but I really didn't do anything constructive, it was all just good ideas. Now I'm trying to lead a constructive life a day at a time.
