I was the new boy. It was like joining a new class at school where everybody knows everybody else but me.

Everything government touches turns to crap.

Fondest memory of being a Beatle: Having three brothers.

My soul is that of a drummer.... I didn't do it to become rich and famous. I did it because it was the love of my life.

The Beatles were just four guys that loved each other. That's all they'll ever be.

Take a dose of rock and roll, and wash it down with cool clear soul.

I'm on my feet and I'm doing what I love to do, and I'm in a profession, as a musician, where we can go on for as long as we can go on.

Well, I'm getting happier all the time, which is very nice.

Of course I'm ambitious. What's wrong with that? Otherwise you sleep all day.

Ringo: 'I had no schooling before I joined The Beatles and no schooling after The Beatles. Life is a great education.

We will miss George for his sense of love, his sense of music and his sense of laughter.

If you do politics the right way, I believe, you can actually make people's lives better. And integrity is the minimum ante to get into the game.

My mom is many times responsible for getting us all together, but we trade off at each other's houses. My brother and I are actors and are traveling a lot of our job.

I can only get my drummer in the winter; he plays with Grand Funk all summer.

You must begin to think of yourself as becoming the person you want to be.

I knew that I was smart enough to learn. I knew that I could learn, if I could just go to school and not hear gunshots.

The art of politics is learning to walk with your back to the wall, your elbows high, and a smile on your face. It's a survival game played under the glare of lights.

Oh, you are the kind of man who will corrupt a woman to her very last fiber.

Here words can kill - literally.

No place could be less sympathetic to my politics than America.

You can't lead anybody you don't love. You can't do it. It's not possible.
