“The magic eventually had to wear off. The honeymoon was over. The divorce lawyers had moved in. The Bonnie and Clyde of rock ‘n roll had pulled their last job. Busted. Caught red handed with lives, wives, and children of their own.” (Ruth McCartney)

Happy Global Beatles Day!!

""But Paul and John have a way of turning out the others when they're on. George and Ringo sometimes sort of wander away." I observed this too. John and Paul, the songwriters, are often a duet, with George and Ringo acting as loners." (Phyllis Batelle)

@vampsydnie Some of them are available on the wayback machine! However, not all of the links on the forums work so it's just a surface level look through. I have seen one though where you can still read the old mclennon and lennison fanfics though.

“I don’t often get nostalgic, but the memory of sitting listening to records in John’s bedroom is so lovely, a nice nostalgic feeling, because I realize just how close I was to John. It’s a lovely thought to think of a friend’s bedroom.” (Paul McCartney; Many Years From Now)

john and paul use this quantum entanglement (seans words!) like motif to describe their relationship.

for example: paul saying that they're a part of one anothers fates—

“Lennon had attitude, and, taking his lead from Lennon, McCartney could be similar. At times, they reminded me of those well-to-do Chicago lads Leopold and Loeb, who killed someone because they felt superior to him.” (Bob Wooler in March Lewisohn’s Tune in)

"But, you know, his [John's] spirit's still in mine. In me. And I'm very glad of that."
- Paul McCartney in interview with Paul Mescal

“To lose your mum at fourteen is not easy. It was very difficult for a few years – just trying come to terms with it. But then I found music… and John.”

- Paul McCartney
