George Harrison's Page!!!
(Ode to George)
Sometimes people look so hot that it makes you feel better to look at them. Sometimes, people are so good-looking, they can't help it. George Harrison is one of those people. So, in an Ode To George, (lol) I have taken the liberty of copying down his funniest quotes and cutest pics. And even some facts thrown in there for ya. Enjoy!
Quotes by George Harrison:
I'm a tidy sort of bloke, I don't like caos. I kept the records in the record rack, tea in the tea caddy and pot in the pot box."
"There's high, and there's high, and to get really high--I mean so high that you can walk on the water, that high--that's where I'm goin'." - circa 1968
"We ice skate." - George Harrison, 1964, when asked by a reporter "What do you do when you're cooped up in a hotel room between shows?"
"I call it Arthur" - George Harrison, 1964, when asked what the Beatles called their haircuts.
"I think people who can live a life in music are telling the world, "You can have my love, you can have my smiles. Forget the bad parts, you don't need them. Just take the music, the goodness, because it's the very best, and it's the part I give most willingly"
"Ghandi says create and preserve the image of your choice. The image of my choice is not Beatle George- those who want that can go and see Wings. Why live in the past? Be here now."
The Beatles saved the world from boredom."
Reporter: What would you do if the fans broke through the police barriers? George:"We'd die laughing."
Press: "Which of you is really bald?" George: "We're all bald. And I'm deaf and dumb."
Press: "Why don't you smile, George?" George: I'll hurt my lips.
"The nicest thing is to open up the newspapers and not find yourself in them."
"After all we did for Britain, selling that courdoroy and making it swing, all we got was a bit of tin on a piece of leather."
Press: "Are you married?" George: "No, I'm George."
(On John's use of of feedback at the beginning of "I Feel Fine") "I guess in a way he invented Jimi Hendrix."
(On their promotional videos such as "Paperback Writer" and "Rain") "I guess in a way we invented MTV."
At the Beatles first EMI sessions, 1962 George Martin (to group): "Let me know if there's anything you don't like." George Harrison: "Well, for a start, I don't like your tie."
(After watching clips of concerts and A HARD DAY'S NIGHT for the Beatles Anthology special) "If U2 thinks they're a big and popular band, then they should sit through this shit and they can see how popular a real band can be."
Reporter: "What will you do when the bubble bursts?" George: "Take up ice hockey."
"The world used us as an excuse to go mad."
I picture John physically as someone youthful who made a lot, but I feel him more as an energy, more metaphysically.
"As far as I'm concerned, there won't be a Beatles reunion as long as John Lennon remains dead."
