Paul McCartney

I don't work at being ordinary.

So, if I'm cooking, I'll be steaming vegetables, making some nice salad, that kind of stuff.

Somebody said to me, 'But the Beatles were anti-materialistic.' That's a huge myth. John and I literally used to sit down and say, 'Now, let's write a swimming pool.'

I knew I was doing something right because it was selling so I didn't want to interfere with it.

I did art; I made furniture. I didn't want to be a cliche - the Beatle's son who became a musician.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.
