"It’s lovely to think John would have been 80. And, you know, that’s...that’s... it’s nice to imagine him at 80. I think he would...I think he would be, very literate. I think he would be writing, uh, not necessarily just music cause he was starting to get into, uh, he did, he did a couple of little books. Um, and I think, I think he would have matured nicely." (2020)

"[I use] pencil and paper. I’m not a typist. Funnily enough, John became a red-hot typist towards the end of his life. He had always had this “Arts Correspondent in Kowloon” kind of dream. But for me it’s pencil and paper." (2001)

"He might have become a novelist. That's something he wanted to do." (1989)

What is a dominant quality of the sound of John Lennon and Paul McCartney singing together? Joy. Joy in performance. Joy in listening to one another’s voices. Joy in whatever kind of reinforcement is going on here. – Jonathan Gould

I feel fans of 1968 hot mess Paul need to know about the Lamborghini incident, as told to Octane car magazine:

‘I decided I’d get a Lamborghini. I’m not exactly sure when, but it was towards the end of the ’60s. January ’68 sounds about right. It was red, I liked it, a flash motor. I went everywhere in it.

‘My main recollection is of breaking down in Soho, on one of those long streets leading down to Wardour Street. I’m tooling along and she breaks down, conks out… So, I’m on my own, out of the car, pushing it in broad daylight down the street, and I can hear the workmen: “Nice car, Paul! Bit of trouble?” Taking the piss something rotten, you know, but I suppose I deserved it.’
