If his wires hadn't been star-crossed, George Harrison may have become a sub-par electrician instead of a great musician. In tribute to the “quiet” Beatle, we share the following quotes from a 1966 interview.

Q: What careers would you individually have chosen had you not become entertainers?

Paul: I don't know..... maybe something with art in it.

John: No comment.
