I think that we should just make one huge thread if we're going to post things they've said over the course of their lives =)

Question: How do you feel about teenagers imitating you with Beatle wigs?

John: They are not imitating us, because we don`t wear Beatle wigs.What do you do when you`re cooped up in a hotel room between shows?

George: We ice skate.

Paul on Yesterday
.
"For about a month I went round to people in the music business and asked them whether they had ever heard it before. Eventually it became like handing something in to the police. I thought if no-one claimed it after a few weeks then I could have it."What excuses do you have for your collar length hair?

John: Well, it just grows out yer head!Ringo: John thought of the name Beatles, and he'll tell you about it now
John: Well just it means beatles, doesn't it, you know. That's just a name, you know like shoe
Paul: The shoes! See, we could've been called the shoes for all you know.MAL: What do you want, Paul?

PAUL: Dos Equis, please.

MAL: Linda?

LINDA: Water.Press conference upon arrival in NYC for first U.S. visit...

reporter: Are you going to get haircuts while you're here?

George: I had one yesterday.

I'm not sure if he was trying to be funny or not but, that is one of the funniest comments I've ever heard!I support [the] decriminalization [of marijuana,]" McCartney said. "People are smoking pot anyway and to make them criminal is wrong." He added that it was pointless to incarcerate marijuana smokers because that experience exposes them to a legitimate criminal element.

McCartney noted that he spent nine days in a Japanese prison in 1980 after being found in possession of marijuana. He said he learned nothing from it.

When I was jailed in Japan for having pot there was no attempt at rehabilitation," he said. "They just stuck me in a box."

"I hope the fans will take up meditation instead of drugs."
- Ringo Starr, 1967

"It [LSD] opened my eyes. We only use on-tenth of our brain. Just think of what we could accomplist if we could only tap that hidden part! It would mean a whole new world if the politicians would take LSD. There wouldn't be any more war or poverty or famine."
- Paul McCartney, 1967

This quote makes me SO SAD!!!!! (see below)

What is this about an annual illness, George?
George: I get cancer every year.

[Johnny]

yeah...really sad

I know about John's quote, maybe the worst thing that he has said in his life:

"We're more popular than Jesus Christ now. I don't know which will go first; rock and roll or Christianity. "

After that many people in the world gathered together and burned their albums...

[honeypie]

yeah..but he was right..they really were more popular..that was true...

[Paola Harrison]

^Once I read that after all that stuff about Jesus, John's cat had kittens. He named one Jesus and used to joke saying that after all, it was true, they were more popular than Jesus...referring to the cat! ;D

I read this one and it made a knock in my throath

"What does it mean when a person is such a pacifist that they get shot? I can never understand that." - John Lennon

[honeypie]

omg, cat's story..Johnny was sooo funny! That's why I love him

so sad :/ :/
