#and why people like klein who were willing to say whatever j&y wanted to hear always got on their good side

“But you know John and Yoko, you can see it now, the way to get their friendship is to do everything the way they require it. To do anything else is how to not get their friendship. This is still how it is with John and Yoko. I know that if I absolutely lie down on the ground and just do everything like they say and laugh at all their jokes and don’t expect my jokes to ever get laughed at, and don’t expect any of my opinions ever to carry any weight whatsoever, if I’m willing to do all that, then we can be friends. But if I have an opinion that differs from theirs, then I’m a sort of an enemy.”

Paul McCartney, speaking in 1980. All You Need Is Love, Peter Brown and Steven Gaines (2024)
