These are all the quotes about John and Paul that I found on tumblr, unfortunately not all credits were kept with each quote... borrowed from tumblr : goddamnthebeatles
"I spoke to Paul about this night many years later, and he confirmed that he and George had been shaken rigid when they found out we were up on the roof. They knew John was having a what you might call a bad trip. John didn't go back to Weybridge that night; Paul took him home to his place, in nearby Cavendish Road. They were intensely close, remember, and Paul would do almost anything for John. So, once they were safe inside, Paul took a tablet of LSD for the first time, 'So I could get with John' as he put it- be with him in his misery and fear." - George Martin
"There was a deeper love there that neither of us could admit to." - Paul McCartney
"On March 12, Paul married Linda Eastman at Marylebone Register Office in London, amid scenes of hysterical grief from his female fans. None of the other Beatles was present. The news reached John as he and Yoko were driving down to visit Aunt Mimi in Poole. Yoko's divorce decree had become final a few weeks earlier, and, in a resurgence of Beatle copycat, John told her they, too, must get married as soon as possible." - Philip Norman, John Lennon: The life
"Paul was the first love of my life, Yoko was the second." - John Lennon
"They (John and Paul) told me that they considered each other, at that time, such an integral part of each other's influences that they were in some ethereal way writing songs together though apart." - Ken Mansfield
"And, in the same respect, the creativity of songwriting had left Paul and me... well, by the mid-Sixties it had become a craft. And yet...a different kind of thing comes in. It's like a love affair. When you first meet, you can have the hots for twenty-four hours a day for each other. But after fifteen or twenty years, a different kind of sexual and intellectual relationship develops, right? It's still love, but it's different. So there's that kind of difference in creativity, too. As in a love affair, two creative people can destroy themselves trying to recapture that youthful spirit, at twenty-one or twenty-four, of creating without even being aware of how it's happening". - John Lennon
"If you want to say someone you love them, tell them now! Because there may come a point when it's too late and you'd think "I wish I'd say that" - Paul McCartney
"But you've got to remember, John and I knew each other when we were teenagers. We listened to the same records. We grew up to those records. We wore the same clothes. We admired the same kind of people. We had the same tastes. That informed the whole business. John and I were like twins. To find someone like that is pretty impossible. And hey, we were also damn good. We just got it on. We were hot. You can't replace someone like John, and I don't think he could've replaced someone like me." - Paul McCartney
"I remember being shocked one day when John started worrying about how people would remember him when he was gone. It was an incredibly vulnerable thing for him to come out with. I said to him then, 'They'll remember you as a fucking genius because that's what you are. But you won't give a shit because you'll be up there flying across the universe'." - Paul McCartney
"In fact, after he died, the thing that helped me the most, really, was talking to Yoko about it. She volunteered the information that he had... really liked me. She said that once or twice, they had sat down to listen to my records and he had said, 'There you are." - Paul McCartney.
