I like making things. I don't like getting my picture taken.

The only way to deal with critics is to go over their heads direct to the public.

My name's not John Beatle, it's John Lennon.

It was like being in the eye of a hurricane. You'd wake up in a concert and think, Wow, how did I get here?

And God help Bruce Springsteen when they decide he's no longer God... They'll turn on him, and I hope he survives it.

You have to be a bastard to make it, and that's a fact. And the Beatles are the biggest bastards on earth.
