I knew George from the bus. (…) George was a bus stop away. I would get on the bus for school and he would get on the stop after. So, being close to each other in age, we talked - although I tended to talk down to him, because he was a year younger. (I know that that was a failing I had all the way through the Beatle years. If you’ve known a guy when he’s thirteen and you’re fourteen, it’s hard to think of him as a grown up. I still think of George as a young kid. I still think of Ringo as a very old person because he is two years older. He was the grown up in the group: when he came to us he had a beard, he had a car and he had a suit. What more proof do you need of grown-upmanship?)
