“To the best of my knowledge, none of the Beatles can read music.”

“I think people who truly can live a life in music are telling the world, ‘You can have my love, you can have my smiles. Forget the bad parts, you don’t need them. Just take the music, the goodness, because it’s the very best, and it’s the part I give most willingly”

“I'm really quite simple. I plant flowers and watch them grow... I stay at home and watch the river flow.”

“When you've seen beyond yourself, then you may find, peace of mind is waiting there.”

“I play a little guitar, write a few tunes, make a few movies, but none of that's really me. The real me is something else.”

“All the world is birthday cake, so take a piece, but not too much.”

“Although I have guitars all around, and I pick them up occasionally and write a tune and make a record, I don't really see myself as a musician. It may seem a funny thing to say. It's just like, I write lyrics, and I make up songs, but I'm not a great lyricist or songwriter or producer. It's when you put all these things together - that makes me.”

“To the best of my knowledge, none of the Beatles can read music.”

“I'll tell you one thing for sure: once you get to the point where you're actually doing things for truth's sake, then nobody can ever touch you again because you're harmonizing with a greater power.”

“In the end, you're trying to find God. That's the result of not being satisfied. And it doesn't matter how much money, or property, or whatever you've got, unless you're happy in your heart, then that's it. And unfortunately, you can never gain perfect happiness unless you've got that state of consciousness that enables that.”

“I wanted to be successful, not famous.”
