Fads don’t last, but it should be clear by now that the Beatles are no ordinary fad.

You may say I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one. I hope someday you’ll join us. And the world will live as one.

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

We were very influenced by The Beatles, no question.

If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there’d be peace.

You know the reason The Beatles made it so big?…’I Wanna Hold Your Hand.’ First single. Fucking brilliant. Perhaps the most fucking brilliant song ever written. Because they nailed it. That’s what everyone wants. Not...

All You Need Is Love” in homage to their memory.

I believe in everything until it’s disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it’s in your mind. Who’s to say that dreams and nightmares aren’t as real as...

Take these broken wings and learn to fly.

It would have been the first time the Beatles and Stones collaborated on stage I suppose. We have played together on record in the past.

If slaughterhouses had glass walls, the whole world would be vegetarian.

It reveals the inspiration behind the 1967 Beatles classic I am the Walrus.

Nothing is real.

As usual, there is a great woman behind every idiot.

Eleanor Rigby.” It’s true, where do they all come from? And where do they all belong?

Haiti is my country. The same way the Beatles are received in England – that’s how Wyclef Jean is received in Haiti, do you know what I mean?

God is a concept by which we measure our pain.

I think I’m supposed to “take a sad song and make it better,” but that’s beyond my musical ability

The thing the sixties did was to show us the possibilities and the responsibility that we all had. It wasn’t the answer. It just gave us a glimpse of the possibility.

All you could do was to see them. We were backstage when the Beatles were on and you could just about hear a noise. It was just literally screaming.

It’s being here now that’s important. There’s no past and there’s no future. Time is a very misleading thing. All there is ever, is the now. We can gain experience from the past, but we...

…Christianity will go. It will vanish and shrink. I don’t know what will go first, rock ‘n’ roll or Christianity. We’re more popular than Jesus now. Jesus was all right, but his disciples were thick...
