“I thought a lot about whether to do ‘My Sweet Lord’ or not. Having written it, I thought it’s really committing meself to something. There’s gonna be a lot of people who are gonna really hate me. Because people fear the unknown, you see. It’s some sort of instinct in people. The point was that I was sticking me neck out on the chopping block. But at the same time, I thought, 'Well, nobody’s saying it.’ It would be… 'I wish somebody else was doing it.’ So that, uh, you know, to represent, cos, you know, everything should be represented in a way. If everybody’s just going, 'Be bop, baby,’ you know, okay?” - George Harrison, Living in the Material World

“At that time, nobody was committed to that type of music in the pop world. There was, I felt, a real need for that, so rather than sitting and waiting for somebody else, I decided to do it myself. A lot of times we think, ‘Well, I agree with you, but I’m not going to actually stand up and be counted. Too risky.’ Everybody is always trying to keep themselves covered, stay commercial, so I thought, just do it. Nobody else is, and I’m sick of all these young people just boogeying around, wasting their lives, you know. Also, I felt that there were a lot of people out there who would be reached. I still get letters from people saying, ‘I have been in the Krishna temple for three years, and I would have never known about Krishna unless you recorded the All Things Must Pass album.’ So I know, by the Lord’s grace, I am a small part in the cosmic play.” - George Harrison on the album All Things Must Pass in an interview with Mukunda Goswami, 1982

“As a small boy, Dhani says, ‘I was pretty sure he was just a gardener’ - a reasonable conclusion, since Harrison would work 12-hour days out there, missing family dinners as he pursued his vision, planting trees and flowers. 'Being a gardener and not hanging out with anyone and just being home, that was pretty rock & roll, you know?’ says Dhani, who understood his father’s affinity: 'When you’re in a really beautiful garden, it reminds you constantly of God.’” - Rolling Stone, 15 September 2011 [x]

“George pretty much glowed. He carried this sense of well-being & quietude wherever he went. There was this aura about him - like walking into a monastery, a sense of peace. Don’t get me wrong, it wasn’t all holier than thou – that’s not what I am talking about, but he had an air about him, and it was a constant for the whole time I knew George. ” - Bobby Whitlock

“George was a good and humble man who believed in the power of love to overcome all adversity. He lived his life without asking anything for himself, and his courage to quietly remind us that God created a world for peace and compassion has had a profound effect on all of our lives.” —Billy Corgan

“So it’s really… It’s like to give peace a chance, or all you need is love. The thing is, you can’t just stand there and say, love, love, love or peace, peace, peace and get it. You have to have a direct process of attaining that. Like Christ said, ‘Put your own house in order.’ Maharishi said, ‘For a forest to be green, each tree must be green.’ So the same for the world to have peace, each individual must have peace. And you don’t get it through society’s normal channels. And that’s why each individual must tend to himself and get his own peace. And that way the whole society will have peace.”-George Harrison in an October 8, 1969 interview with David Wigg
