Every time, my syncopation is different, because I can never play the same fill twice. I just can't, never have been able to. Even as a Beatle, they'd say, 'Oh, double-track that.' I don't know how you do that, because when I'm in a fill I'm sort of this blackout, just this pure me coming out and I can't pure me the same, twice. So, that's that.

I learned to knit in hospital. They give you stuff to do to keep you busy because you're so ill.

You either kiss the future or the past goodbye.

The trouble with leaving your feet on the ground is you never get to take your pants off.

I've been asked to write my autobiography and really they only want 8 years (1962-1970), and I keep saying it would be five volumes before I even got into the band!

I think I'm more prolific in the songwriting.

I'd like to end up sort ofunforgettable.
