“Solo quiero ser de verdad; aunque ello me lleve a descubrir que no soy nada”
“There was this guy called Ritter who was in our group at school, and George was in the younger group, and I remember we’d been standing around at the playground and I’d tried to introduce George to Ritter, introduce him into my peer group. And being a year younger it was kind of difficult. I said, ‘Hey this is George Harrison. He’s a mate of mine. We get on the same bus together.’ And we’d been sitting around, and George suddenly head-butted this friend of mine. I thought, ‘Fuckin’ hell.’ Now I’m sure he had a very good reason to do it. But afterwards I was going, ‘No, he’s all right really, you know?’ I always had to stick up for these friends of mine. What might have been construed as good old-fashioned rudeness I always had to put down as ballsiness. I had to assume that my mates were a little bit wimpish and that George had done the right thing, for some reason.” - Paul McCartney: Many Years From Now with Barry Miles
