Man is a comparative being. Substandard things must go before super-standard things can come.

Never never never compare yourself to the beautiful girls. There's always someone gorgeous who will make you feel like you're not. It's a total confidence buster!

I've got used to the fact-just about- that whatever I do is going to be compared to the other Beatles. If I took up ballet dancing, my ballet dancing would be compared with Paul's bowling.

I love animals because all they really want from you is love. Too bad that's even too much to ask for from some people.

Poets are like baseball pitchers. Both have their moments. The intervals are the tough things.

Do not compare yourself to others. If you do so, you are insulting yourself.
