Paul McCartney idézet

„Meg tudja ítélni az ember valódi jellemét azáltal, ahogyan bánik állattársaival.”

„Régebben azt gondoltam, hogy bárki, aki bármi furcsát csinál, az furcsa. Most már tudom, hogy azok az emberek furcsák, akik másokat furcsának neveznek.”

„Csukd be a szemed és megcsókollak, és holnap hiányozni fogsz.”

„És mi értelme a változásnak, ha úgy vagyok boldog, ahogy vagyok?”

„Amit csinálsz és amit szeretsz, az a részeddé válik, ha szerencsés vagy.”

„Ha a vágóhidaknak üvegfaluk lenne, mindenki vegetáriánus lenne.”

„Gondolkodj globálisan, cselekedj lokálisan.”

„A szomorúság nem szomorúság. Hanem boldogság fekete kabátban. A könnyek nem könnyek. Hanem sóba mártott nevetés golyócskái. A halál nem halál. Hanem egy magas szikláról leugrott élet.”

“Close your eyes and I'll kiss you, Tomorrow I'll miss you.”

“If slaughterhouses had glass walls, we would all be vegetarian.”

“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.”

“We thought we'd be really big in Liverpool.”

“Sadness isn't sadness. It's happiness in a black jacket. Tears are not tears. They're balls of laughter dipped in salt. Death is not death. It's life that's jumped off a tall cliff.”

“Take these broken wings and learn to fly.”

“the beatles were always a great band. nothing more nothing less”

“Paul's last words to Linda: "You're up on your beautiful Appaloosa stallion. It's a fine spring day. We're riding through the woods. The bluebells are all out, and the sky is clear-blue".”

“While the others had got married and moved out to suburbia, I had stayed in London and got into the arts scene through friends like Robert Fraser and Barry Miles and papers like The International Times. We opened the Indica gallery with John Dunbar, Peter Asher and people like that. I heard about people like John Cage, and that he’d just performed a piece of music called 4’33” (which is completely silent) during which if someone in the audience coughed he would say, ‘See?’ Or someone would boo and he’d say, ‘See? It’s not silence—it’s music.’ I was intrigued by all of that. So these things started to be part of my life. I was listening to Stockhausen; one piece was all little plink-plonks and interesting ideas. Perhaps our audience wouldn’t mind a bit of change, we thought, and anyway, tough if they do! We only ever followed our own noses—most of the time, anyway. ‘Tomorrow Never Knows’ was one example of developing an idea.”

“You can judge a man's true character by the way he treats his fellow animals.”

“Some people want to fill the world with silly love songs

I need my love to be here.
Here, making each day of the year”

Take a sad song and make it better.”

When John died, I thought, ‘Well, maybe we’ll get a message,’ because I know he knew the deal. I haven’t had a message from John.”

“Lady Madonna lying on the bed
Listen to the music playing in your head.”

“It's like if you're an astronaut and you've been to the moon, what do you want to do with the rest of your life?”

“Animation is not just for children - it's also for adults who take drugs.”

“And what's the point of changing when I'm happy as I am?”

“Obladi oblada life goes on bra
Lala how the life goes on”

“For cruelty to animals, vegetarianism is the great thing to get rid of that. For the planet, to prevent depleting the water and the land and everything, it’s a great idea. And I think it’s a great thing for your health, and doctors nowadays agree with that. There are plenty of great books and organizations, so no matter where you are, there is someone to help you. That’s your first step, and I think your second step is just look in the supermarket for good vegetarian food, and I think it’s so much more readily available now.”

“I wasn't really dead.”

“What you do and what you love just becomes a part of you, if you're lucky.”

Now I need a place to hide away.”

“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.”
