4. The “Beatles” saved the world from boredom. ~ George Harrison

5. It was hard to be able to handle the fact that all these people thought you were something wonderful. It was hard to deal with the ego. I felt a kind of nothing. ~ George Harrison

6. John wasn’t an angel, but he was nonetheless. ~ George Harrison

7. He wanted to be successful, not famous. ~ George Harrison

8. They (“Beatles” fans) gave their money, but we gave our nervous systems, something much harder to give. ~ George Harrison

9. I don’t know if I have delivered something really valuable. The fans will say that my music and maybe they will agree, but I think that more than the songs themselves what is really valuable is the sincerity that each one of them has. You may like it or not, but they are all from the heart. ~ George Harrison

10. Try to understand that everything is within you, no one else can make you change and to see that you are really very small and that life flows inside and outside of you. ~ George Harrison

11. When I was a beatle, every year seemed like twenty years. ~ George Harrison

12. I am a musician and I don’t know why. Many people feel that life is predestined. I think it is vaguely, but it’s still up to the person how their life is going to go. All I’ve done is continue to be me, and it all worked…like magic. I never planned anything, so it’s obvious that’s what I’m meant to be. I am a musician. It’s my job. ~ George Harrison

13. We were like monkeys in a zoo, and we all needed space to live and grow. I think that the press separated The “Beatles” more than Yoko or Linda McCartney. ~ George Harrison

14. The biggest milestone in my career was being part of the Beatles in 1962. The second milestone since then was parting ways with them. ~ George Harrison

22. I started to question if it was such a good thing to be famous and in demand, but, you know, that’s kind of ridiculous, really. Since then, I never enjoyed fame. When the novelty wore off (around 1966) it became drudgery. ~ George Harrison

23. If you drive a car, I will charge a tax for the street, if you want to sit, I will charge a tax for the chair, if you are very cold, I will charge a tax for heating, if you go for a walk, I will charge a tax for your feet; tax collector, because I am the tax collector. ~ George Harrison

24. (LSD) It was like opening a door, really, and before, you didn’t even know that door existed. It opened to me a new, different consciousness, even if it was, as Aldous Huxley said, in the wonderful folds of the gray suede trousers. From that minimal concept, to the fact that each blade of grass and each grain of sand is something vibrant and latent. ~ George Harrison

25. When we started to be successful in England, the press was looking at how we dressed, which, I suppose, was changing the image of youth. It was something that defined the era. For me, 1966 was the moment when the whole world opened up and made the most sense. ~ George Harrison

29. The most pleasant thing is to open the newspapers and not find yourself in them. ~ George Harrison

30. If you are interested in something, you better deal with the best, where the experience is deeper. ~ George Harrison

31. I am an orderly type. I don’t like chaos. I keep the records in their place, the tea in the tea can, and the marijuana in the marijuana box. ~ George Harrison

32. With our love, we will save the world. ~ George Harrison

33. Writing songs is like going to confession. Write songs to try and find; see who you are ~ George Harrison

34. I plant flowers and watch them grow, I stay at home and watch the river flow. ~ George Harrison

35. The only thing we really have to work on in this life is how to manifest love. ~ George Harrison

36. My life is music. It’s only me when I have a guitar in my hands. ~ George Harrison

37. For me Rubber Soul and Revolver are like two parts of the same album. ~ George Harrison

38. Everything else can wait, but the search for God cannot. ~ George Harrison

39. Life is as fragile as a drop of water on a leaf. ~ George Harrison

40. I think the people who can really give their lives to music are saying to the world: You can have my love. You can have my smiles. ~ George Harrison

41. Forget the bad parts, you don’t need them. ~ George Harrison

42. In the bigger picture, it doesn’t really matter if we never made an album or sang a song. That’s not important. ~ George Harrison

44. Flattery and super stardom is something I could very happily give up. ~ George Harrison

45. The world is like a birthday cake. So take a piece, but not too much. ~ George Harrison

46. We were the Spice Boys. ~ George Harrison

47. Honestly, I’d join a band with John Lennon any day, but I couldn’t with Paul McCartney, but it’s nothing personal. It’s just from a musical point of view. ~ George Harrison

48. I never listen to the radio to keep up with current trends. ~ George Harrison

49. I just got sick of the bad vibes. I didn’t care that they were the “Beatles”; I just wanted to get out. ~ George Harrison

50. I play a little guitar, write some songs, make some movies. But none of those are really me. The real “I” is something else. ~ George Harrison

51. If all of us were perfected beings, we would not be here in the physical world. ~ George Harrison

52. One has as many lives as he wants and more, even some unwanted ones. ~ George Harrison

53. If we had known that we would be The “Beatles”, we would have tried harder. ~ George Harrison

54. When you look beyond yourself, you will realize that peace of mind is there waiting for you. ~ George Harrison

55. It is better to be an outspoken atheist than a hypocrite. ~ George Harrison

56. Gossip is the devil’s radio. ~ George Harrison

63. The fact that we are all here in these bodies means that we have not been perfected. ~ George Harrison

64. There is height and there is height; and to get really high, I mean so high you can walk on water, that high, that’s where I’m going. ~ George Harrison

65. John lived in New York during his later years, he really liked the United States. He knew what was going on there. I guess he was not happy with the direction that country was heading. ~ George Harrison

66. “My sweet Lord”, is still valid. It seems even more relevant to me today, when technology, stress and materialism have driven us all crazy. ~ George Harrison

67. Without this spiritual aspect, life today would be a hollow experience for me that forces minors to grow up too quickly and where no one knows how to put barriers to anything. ~ George Harrison

68. It has always been painful for me to see how the children of famous artists, Julian Lennon included, were forced to prove that they were better than anyone and did not weigh on the paternal legacy. This industry is cutthroat and I think Dhani knows that very well. ~ George Harrison

69. When I was in the Beatles it was very difficult to get a word in. Paul McCartney and John Lennon were undoubtedly talented and made a good duo, but they were also two guys with huge egos and left little room for the others. ~ George Harrison

70. It is as if you throw a stone in a pond: when the wave arrives, the fish move away. ~ George Harrison

72. Seen with the perspective of the years, it must be recognized that not all the melodies of that time were good, far from it. ~ George Harrison

76. We made very popular films, such as “The Life of Brian”, by Monty Python, but the cinema has ceased to interest me. It’s another industry focused on profit and arrogant, artificial types. ~ George Harrison

77. I would force them to meditate for at least ten years before running for election. We are governed by people who don’t even know how to respect their bodies and yet they claim to control our lives. ~ George Harrison

78. Before, having 50,000 spectators in a football stadium was bordering on glory. Today they can add up to 300,000 and nobody flinches. ~ George Harrison

79. I think Indian music influenced the way I set turning points and some of the things I play have a sound similar to Indian music. ~ George Harrison

80. Paul had a dictator side, but many times he was for the benefit of the song. ~ George Harrison
