My mother was killed in a plane crash, so I hate travelling in planes. Death is so unexpected. I would actually rather stay at home and not go anywhere.

Our kids haven't any airs about them. I don't like posh kids who don't like dirty dolls or expect a chauffeur every time they go out.
Linda McCartney Paul McCartney and Wings -
I would travel only by horse, if I had the choice.
Linda McCartney Paul McCartney and Wings -
We think we want to do something and when it comes to it, we don't. We don't like to commit.

He is not in the least arrogant. The last album was written in a room in Sussex. He was like a mad professor, spending all day writing and then coming out with brilliant tunes.

I've always hated religion. It's the most guilt-ridden, horrible thing. 'My God is better than yours, and I'm going to fight you and kill you because of your religion.' I think it's just a sick idea. You know how people are color-blind when it comes to other people - I mean, hopefully they are. Well, I'm religious-blind.

When I first toured with Wings things that were said about me were true - I did sing out of tune.

Oppression won't win, the light comes from within.

Paul persuaded me to join the band. I would never have had the courage otherwise. It was fun at the beginning. We were playing just for fun, with Paul's group.
Linda McCartney Paul McCartney and Wings -
We spend so much time together, because that's how we like it. I never used to go on girl's nights out, even at school. And Paul has never liked going out for a night with the boys, either.

I had daydreams and fantasies when I was growing up. I always wanted to live in a log cabin at the foot of a mountain. I would ride my horse to town and pick up provisions. Then return to the cabin, with a big open fire, a record player and peace.

We stopped eating meat many years ago. During the course of a Sunday lunch we happened to look out of the kitchen window at our young lambs playing happily in the fields. Glancing down at our plates, we suddenly realized that we were eating the leg of an animal who had until recently been playing in a field herself. We looked at each other and said, "Wait a minute, we love these sheep-they're such gentle creatures. So why are we eating them?" It was the last time we ever did.

If slaughterhouses had glass walls, everyone would be vegetarian. We feel better about ourselves and better about the animals, knowing we're not contributing to their pain.

I don't need a lot of money. Simplicity is the answer for me.

I wasn't looking for another marriage. I had been married before. He is a nice man - a geologist, an Ernest Hemingway type. But Paul and I married because of convention.

Most people if I like their music, I can get good pictures.

He is a terrible planner, though. So am I.
Linda McCartney Paul McCartney and Wings -
We both came from families in which parents got married, had children and the whole thing. So we were not the kind of people to live together permanently.

I think hard drugs are disgusting. But I must say, I think marijuana is pretty lightweight.

I would like them all to enjoy life and try different things until there is something they really like.

Anyone who cares about the Earth - really cares - must stop eating animals.
Linda McCartney Paul McCartney and Wings -
We are really on top of one another at the moment and I think it is amazing how we stay so close. Maybe that's the test. Why not totally put yourself together, rather than always wonder whether you actually like each other?
