I saw that Meryl Streep said, I just want to do my job well. And really, that's all I'm ever trying to do.

I think people who create and write, it actually does flow-just flows from into their head, into their hand, and they write it down. It's simple.

I used to think anyone doing anything weird was weird. Now I know that it is the people that call others weird that are weird.

I used to think that all my Wings stuff was second-rate stuff, but I began to meet younger kids, not kids from my Beatle generation, who would say, We really love this song.

I used to think that anyone doing anything weird was weird. I suddenly realized that anyone doing anything weird wasn't weird at all and it was the people saying they were weird that were weird.
