Quotes

“ Written in India. A song about Mia Farrow's sister, who seemed to go slightly balmy, meditating too long, and couldn't come out of the little hut that we were living in. They selected George and me to try and bring her out, because she would trust us. „

—John Lennon, 1968
“ Prudence Farrow got an attack of the horrors, paranoia, an identity crisis and wouldn't come out of her Butlins chalet. We all got a little bit worried about her, so went up there and knocked., 'Hi Prudence. We all love you. You're wonderful!' But nobody could persuade her out. „

—Paul McCartney, 1968
“ If she had been in the West, they would have put her away. She'd been locked in for three weeks and was trying to reach God quicker than anybody else. That was the competition in Maharishi's camp, who was going to get cosmic first. What I didn't know was that I was already cosmic. „

—John Lennon, 1968
“ George was the one who told me about the song. At the end of the meditation course in India, just as we were leaving, he mentioned that they had written a song about me, but I didn't hear it until it came out on the album. I was flattered by it. It was a beautiful thing to have done. „

—Prudence Farrow
