I& #39;m gonna make a thread about cute Paul/George quotes bc I& #39;m tired of people judging their entire relationship on a few clips from youtube.
Ok, this is going to be a long one folks, so I& #39;m going to keep coming back to it.
George on Paul playing the trumpet (1975)
Paul talking more about him and George learning songs on the guitar and when they went to see Blackboard Jungle.
This is more sad than cute, but I find it very sweet so I& #39;m including it anyway. Paul feeling nostalgic during an interview with The Observer in 2005.
Jimmy and Jemima.

"George was always known as the quiet one, but he had a wicked sense of humour. He and Paul tricked two fans into thinking that they were really brothers and George signed his name & #39;George McCartney& #39; for them." - Denise Theophilus
“They used to jump on me. George used to wake me up by tickling my feet. That was awful!” - Paul McCartney (1986)
“I got married in 1966 and Paul was my best man. He cancelled his holiday to do it. Then he got drunk and put a bow-and-arrow through the car window. But until then it was great.” - George Harrison
“I like ‘You Never Give Me Your Money’ and & #39;Golden Slumbers’ and things. You know, Paul always writes nice melodies. In fact, I don’t know where he finds them half the time. He’s amazing for doing that.” - George Harrison (1969)
He still loved She& #39;s Leaving Home when he was older.
"[Paul] will go his own particular way in 1970. He’s got that incredible combination of knowing exactly what kind of music to write, with lovely melody and the result is always bang up to date and commercial in the nicest aspect of the word. He can’t go wrong.” - George (1969)
"But if we& #39;re going to work with Paul, we need to get rid of [Allen] Klein."
"I’d always trust rockers with my money, rather than sharks. George, for instance, just gives a lot of it away because he actually has got morals. Whereas certain people tried to put the Bangla Desh concert money straight into their pocket." - Paul McCartney (Dec. 1973)
"Says ex-colleague McCartney, fondly: ‘George is so straight and so ordinary and so real, and he happens to believe in God. That’s what’s wrong with George to most people’s minds.’" - People (April1976)
"I’ve been meeting Paul again, you know, Paul McCartney. We drifted off away from each other, suing, suing, sue you blues stuff. I’ve just met Paul and I just know that whatever we’ve been through, there’s always been something there to tie us together. - George (1974)
"When you’re so close, you tend to lock each other up in pigeonholes. […] It was a part of our splitting up. But at the same time I have a tendency to defend Paul—John and Ringo too—if anyone else said anything without qualification about them." - George Harrison, NME (1976)
"From the start, I knew Paul had a knack for composing tunes and words to go with them. Nothing great, mind you, at the time, but I knew that he, more than I, could go far in the music world if he really applied himself." - George Harrison, Men Only magazine (1978)
More from George& #39;s Men Only interview from 1978.
