I feel the older I get, the more I'm learning to handle life. Being on this quest for a long time, it's all about finding yourself. ↗

I mean, I was born the day war broke out, but I don't remember all the bombs though they did actually break up Liverpool, you know. I remember when I was a little older, there was big gaps in all the streets where houses used to be. We used to play over them. ↗

I never studied anything, really. I didn't study the drums. I joined bands and made all the mistakes onstage. ↗

I've never been able to sit round on my own and play drums, practice in the back room, never been able to. I've always played with other musicians. It's how I play, there's no joy for me in playing on my own, bashing away. I need a bass, a piano, guitar, whatever, and then I can play. ↗

People only look at me as a Beatle, but my friends look at me as a whole person. That's how life works, but it's not bugging me anymore. ↗

That's when we decided to stop in '66. Everyone thought we toured for years, you know, but we didn't. I joined in '62, and we'd finished touring in '66 to go into the studio where we could hear each other... and create any fantasy that came out of anybody's brain. ↗
