Various Stuff:
Musicians:  The Beatles

George Harrison: "The Beatles, ya know, are gonna go on 'til they die, ya know. I mean, we can't get away from being the Beatles."

George Harrison: "It was difficult for me to write some sort of crummy song and expect the Beatles to record it, already having such fine material. And also, to do a song with the Beatles, it was always a matter of trying to do the song that you thought they'd understand quickest, or the song you could get onto the tape the quickest, not necessarily the song you thought was the best."

George Harrison: "If I'm a part of the band recording, if I'm playing guitar, then you think so much just about that one part, whereas if you're producing, you can tend to withdraw from that situation and see it from, uh, as a whole. You can see, like, the different parts that make up the record. And so, um, it's much nicer, in a way, to produce."

George Harrison speaking of Here Comes the Sun: "It was written on a nice, sunny day in Eric Clapton's garden, because we'd been through, really, hell with business."

John Lennon: "We meant more to kids than Jesus did, or religion, at that time. I wasn't knocking it or putting it down. I was just saying it as a fact, ya know. But, I'm not saying that we're better, or greater, or comparing us with Jesus Christ as a person, or God as a thing, or whatever it is. Ya know, I just said what I said, and it was wrong, or it was taken wrong, and now it's all this. If I had said we're more... television is more popular than Jesus, I might have got away with it."

John Lennon at The Beatles' command performance for the Queen of England: "The people in the cheaper seats, clap your hands... and the rest of you, if you'd just rattle your jewelry."

British reporter: "How did you find America?"

Lennon: "Turn left at Greenland."

The last few bars of Let It Be.

Paul McCartney: "I think it was fine album. Ya know, I'm not a great one for that, ya know, 'Maybe it was too many,' or that... What do you mean? It was great, it sold, it's the bloody Beatles White Album. Shut up."

Bob Costas: "But what do you think is the lasting meaning of The Beatles, if there's a meaning to be taken from this?"

Paul McCartney: "All you need is love."

Paul McCartney at a Beatles concert in the U.S.: "Thank you very much. Thank you, and, uh, hello."

Female reporter, dreamily, at a news conference after the Beatles first arrived in the U.S.: "Will you please sing something?"

Beatles together: "No!"

Brian Epstein: "Next question."

Another reporter: "We've heard that you can't sing."

John Lennon: "No, we need money first."

From the Revolution 9 track, this is "Number nine" turned around backwards, which sounds a bit like, "Turn me on, dead man."
