"Now this is like some weird sci-fi thing form 2001 or something. It was a very weird place. What it reminded me of was... you know these rough rides that police do where they put you in the back of a van but you're not strapped down? And they were accused of killing that guy. Well, that's what it was like. We're suddenly sliding around in the back of the van and it was like, Oh, fuck this! And finally. The guys, John [Lennon] and George [Harrison], had been a little 'Oh murmur-murmur' about touring and, finally, all of us, were like 'F*** this!' So that was the moment."

"Open-air concerts in the states were terrible. When it looked like rain in the open air, I used to be scared stiff. Rain on the wires and everybody would've been blown up; yet if they'd stopped, the kids would have stampeded."
-Mal Evans (The Anthology)

"While everybody else was going mad, we were actually the sanest people in the whole thing."
-George Harrison (The Anthology)
