“The biggest break in my career was getting into the Beatles in 1962. The second biggest break since then is getting out of them.”

The only thing we really have to work at in this life is how to manifest love.

It’s easier to hurt someone and make them cry, than it is to dry their eyes.

All I got to be is be happy.

Even if it’s being a Beatle for the rest of my life, it’s still only a temporary thing.

I can see the Beatles sticking together forever, really. We’ve been together a long time.

If everyone who had a gun just shot themselves, there wouldn’t be a problem.

I keep stacks of Autobiography of a Yogi around the house, and I give it out constantly to people. When people need ‘regrooving,’ I say read this, because it cuts to the heart of every religion.

The Beatles exist apart from my Self. I am not really Beatle George. Beatle George is like a suit or shirt that I once wore on occasion and until the end of my life people may see that shirt and mistake it for me.

Didn’t want to be a star, wanted just to play guitar in this cockamamie business.

I fell in love, not with anything or anybody in particular but with everything.

If people would just wake up to what’s real, there would be no misery in the world. I guess chanting’s a pretty good place to start.

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

Be straight with yourself just to maybe save a few more people from being stupid and being ignorant.

It’s easier to criticize somebody else, than to see yourself.

It’s God’s love manifest in this world through everything that’s in this world, and all the people in the world.

There’s a bottomless heart hooked into all of you and it’s wondering how much you care.

The big problems are where people don’t realise they have one in the first place.

There needs to be somebody that looks out for what’s best for the game, not what’s best for the Big 10 or what’s best for the SEC or what’s best for Jim Harbaugh, but what’s best for the game of college football – the integrity of the game, the coaches, the players, and the people that play it.

Everybody from the Big Ten is going to play the ACC. Everybody from the Big East is going to play the Pac-10.

I went from the projects to a real house. It was a big difference.

Dom DeLuise was a big man in every way. He was big in size and created big laughter and joy.

The second Saturday in September, we’re going to have conference day. Everybody from the SEC plays a Big 12 team.

I try to block out everything that distracts me. Even a big play, I blank it out.

If what you did yesterday seems big, you haven’t done anything today.
