Before Elvis There Was Nothing.

I Always Read The Papers, The Political Bits.

Yoko [ono] Was Showing Me Some Of These Haiku In The Original. The Difference Between Them And Long Fellow Is Immense. Instead Of A Long Flowery Poem The Haiku Would Say 'yellow Flower In White Bowl On Wooden Table' Which Gives You The Whole Picture.

If [sean] Doesn't See Me A Few Days Or If I'm Really, Really Busy, And I Just Sort Of Get A Glimpse Of Him, Or If I'm Feeling Depressed Without Him Even Seeing Me, He Sort Of Picks Up On It. And He Starts Getting That Way. So I Can No Longer Afford To Have Artistic Depressions. If I Start Wallowing In A Depression, He'll Start Coming Down With Stuff, So I'm Sort Of Obligated To Keep Up. And Sometimes I Can't, Because Something Will Make Me Depressed And Sure As Hell He'll Get A Cold Or Trap His Finger In A Door Or Something, And So Now I Have Sort Of More Reason To Stay Healthy Or Bright.

We Put A President Up There, And Then We Set Fire To Him Because He's Not Solving All Our Problems.

Yoko [ono] Was Well Into Liberation Before I Met Her. She'd Had To Fight Her Way Through A Man's World - The Art World Is Completely Dominated By Men - So She Was Full Of Revolutionary Zeal When We Met.
