„Es ist alles im Kopf.“

“Some things take so long
But how do I explain
When not too many people
Can see we're all the same
And because of all their tears
Your eyes can't hope to see
The beauty that surrounds them
Now, isn't it a pity”

“what would you call this haircut?"
arthur.”

“Try to realize it's all within yourself,
No one else can make you change.
And to see you're really only very small
And life flows in within you and without you.”

“If you drive a car, I'll tax the street;
if you try to sit, I'll tax your seat; if you get too cold, I'll tax the heat; if you take a walk, I'll tax your feet.”

“Your own space, man, it's so important. That's why we were doomed because we didn't have any. It is like monkeys in a zoo. They die. You know, everything needs to be left alone.”

“Sometimes I feel like I’m actually on the wrong planet. It’s great when I’m in my garden, but the minute I go out the gate I think, ‘What the hell am I doing here?”

“The saddest thing was actually getting fed up with one another. It's like growing up in a family. When you get to a certain age, you want to go off and get your own girl and your own car, split up a bit.”

“Hare Krishna, Peace and Love”

“Without looking out of my window
I could know the ways of heaven”

“It doesn't really matter what chords I play, what words I say or time of day it is, as it's only a Northern Song.”

“I felt in love, not with anything or anybody in particular but with everything.”

“That's what the whole Sixties Flower-Power thing was about: "Go away, you bunch of boring people."”

“I look at the world and I notice it’s turning.
While my guitar gently weeps.
With every mistake we must surely be learning,
Still my guitar gently weeps.”

“Little darling
I feel that ice is slowly melting
Little darling
It seems like years since it's been clear
Here comes the sun…”

“I don't know how you were diverted
You were perverted too.
I don't know how you were inverted
No one alerted you.”

“Without going out of your door,
You can know all things on earth.
Without looking out of your window you could know the ways of heaven.
The farther one travels. the less one knows, the less one really knows.”

“If you're listening to this song
You may think the chords are going wrong
But they're not
We just wrote it like that”

“I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps.”

“Something in the way she moves
attracts me like no other lover.”

“It just annoyed me that people got so into the Beatles. "Beatles, Beatles, Beatles." It's not that I don't like talking about them. I've never stopped talking about them. It's "Beatles this, Beatles that, Beatles, Beatles, Beatles, Beatles." Then in the end, it's like "Oh, sod off with the Beatles," you know?”

“…the more I learn the less I know…”

“If I grow up I'll be a singer, wearing rings on every finger
Not worrying what they or you say,
I'll live and love and maybe someday
Who knows baby
you may comfort me.”

“I don't know why nobody told you how to unfold your love
I don't know how someone controlled you
They bought and sold you.”

“You can be standing right in front of the truth and not necessarily see it, and people only get it when they’re ready to get it.”

“I really want to see you,
Really want to be with you,
Really want to see you lord,
But it takes so long, my lord.”

“Rap music is just computerised crap. I listen to Top of the Pops and after three songs I feel like killing someone.”

“Do what you want to do,
And go where you're going to.
Think for yourself
'Cause I won't be there with you.”

“I'd thought it would be something like King's Road [London], only more. Somehow I expected them all to own their own little shops. I expected them to all be nice and clean and friendly and happy … (on the contrary, I discovered them to be) hideous, spotty little teenagers.”

“The money we raised was secondary. The main thing was, we spread the word and helped get the war ended ... What we did show was that musicians and people are more humane than politicians.”
