Mindy - I've always thought that one was cute, but if someone else read it out of context, it would make them think they were gay.
I like the smoking/drinking one, it made me giggle

These are all John. One of them is funny.
"It's the fear of the unknown. The unknown is what it is. And to be frightened of it is what sends everybody scurrying around chasing dreams, illusions, wars, peace, love, hate, all that--it's all illusion. Unknown is what it is. Accept that it's unknown and it's plain sailing. Everything is unknown--then you're ahead of the game. That's what it is. Right?"
^^There's some twisted brilliance in there.
"You don't need anybody to tell you who you are or what you are. You are what you are!"
"I believe in everything until it's disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind. Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now? Reality leaves a lot to the imagination."
^^Part of that one was already said, but I like the rest of it.
"I'm not going to change the way I look or the way I feel to conform anything. I've always been a freak. So I've been a freak all my life and I have to live with that, you know. I'm one of those people."
^^Ain't THAT the truth.
"I've been baking bread and looking after the baby...everyone else who has asked me that question over the last few years says, 'But what else have you been doing?' To which I say, 'Are you kidding?' Because bread and babies, as every housewife knows, is a full-time job. After I made the loaves of bread, I felt like I had conquered something. But as I watched the bread being eaten, I thought, Well, Jesus, don't I get a gold record or knighted or nothing?"
^^That made me laugh. ;D

Press: "Some people have been calling your work 'un-American.' How do you respond to this?" John: "Well, that's very observant of them."  Hah, very good stuff. |

Press: Is your wife expensive?
John: Quite, quite...
Paul: How much did she cost when you bought her?
John: Er, she was about fifty pounds in Nairobi.
George: But she was second hand, wasn't she?
Press: Was she second hand??
John: How dare you!
heehee
Press: What do you look like with your hair back on your foreheads?
John: You just don't do that, mate. You feel naked if you do that, like you don't have any trousers on.
(Insert rude comment here ;D)...

I like how the press catches on to them carrying it away too. "Was she second hand?" It's like, when Paul's making fun of Cynthia, it's okay, but when the press does it, John has to stick up for her XD

Ringo: "I got up in the Ad Lib the other night and a big handbag hit me in the gut. I thought it was somebody I knew; I didn't have my glasses on. I said, 'Hello,' and a bloody big worker went 'Arrrgh.' So I just ran into the bog...because I'd heard about things like that."
Playboy Magazine: "What are you talking about?"
George: "He doesn't know."
Playboy Magazine: "Do you?"
George: "Haven't the slightest."

“When I was about twelve, I used to think I must be a genius, but nobody's noticed....If there is such a thing as a genius... I am one, and if there isn't, I don't care."
-John
About George's first wedding:
"How did you manage to keep it a secret?"
"Simple, we didn't tell anyone."
When George went to Pattie and Eric Clapton's wedding:
"Well, of all the people who could have run off with my wife, I'm glad it was my best friend!"

Oh, I remember someone asked on the first page about the "screaming for help in the water" quote was about, and I found out a really long time ago but forgot to post it. It's about "I Want You (She's So Heavy)", about Yoko. Yelling about how much he wanted her, and how he wasn't just going to stay quiet about it. |

That is the funniest thing I've ever read! I heard it before, but I forgot about it. It's definitely one of my favorite quotes as well.  I laughed so hard the first time I read it. Ringo's such an odd one. And here's another of my favorites: Press: "Did you really use four-letter-words on the tourists in the Bahamas?" John: "What we actually said was 'gosh.'" Paul: "We may have also said 'heavens.'" John: "Couldn't have said that, Paul. More than four letters." |

I thought these were cute, from George
"Well be making another film in February, but I've no idea what it'll be all about. I hope there are no songs in it. It was all right getting songs in the last one because we had an excuse, they worked into the film all right. But I don't like these films where everybody bursts into song for no reason and you have a full orchestra blasting out from nowhere. Yes, I'd prefer to make a film without any singing."
"I don't mind colour in a film if it doesn't mean dancing about in a red shirt, like in one of Cliff's. I don't like that."

Hah, very good stuff.
I laughed so hard the first time I read it. Ringo's such an odd one.
