We both came from families in which parents got married, had children and the whole thing. So we were not the kind of people to live together permanently. ↗

We spend so much time together, because that's how we like it. I never used to go on girl's nights out, even at school. And Paul has never liked going out for a night with the boys, either. ↗

When you first get money, you buy all these things so no one thinks you're mean, and you spread it around. You get a chauffeur and you find yourself thrown around the back of this car and you think, I was happier when I had my own little car! I could drive myself! ↗

George wrote Taxman, and I played guitar on it. He wrote it in anger at finding out what the taxman did. He had never known before then what could happen to your money. ↗

I never look forward, because I have no idea about how any of it happened to getting here. I've no idea how the next five years are going to be. ↗

I've got to admit it's getting better. It's a little better all the time. ↗
