“It's a very lowbrow Lennon/McCartney feud but with just as much bad blood. If Paul and John couldn't make up, these two (can't either).”
Ken Baker
“One has to be a lowbrow, a bit of a murderer, to be a politician, ready and willing to see people sacrificed, slaughtered, for the sake of an idea, whether a good one or a bad one.”
Henry Miller
“Highbrow lowbrows. No - not even genuine highbrow lowbrows. Middlebrow highbrow lowbrows.”
Michael Frayn
“You could live in Winnipeg a thousand years and not meet Ringo, Paul McCartney, or Bob Dylan.”
Burton Cummings
“We're reaching a whole new level pairing Fidelity Investments and Sir Paul McCartney.”
Claire Huang
“[Does Joel feel a particular resonance with any of this year's other nominees? Sure, he says -- Paul McCartney, because of the Beatles.] The Beatles were the band that made me realize it was possible to make a living as a musician, ... When I heard the Beatles, I said, 'That's what I want to do!'”
Billy Joel
“With Paul McCartney last year in Jacksonville, the decisions had all been made early, he'd rehearsed it many, many times, and as a result, it was a very clean kind of coverage. Here, it's a very different kind of group. You don't necessarily know what they're going to do. There's more moving around, more raw energy, more unpredictability. There's no question that's going to make my job more difficult.”
