'Helter-Skelter' was the motive for the murders. Manson borrowed that term from a Beatles song on the 'White Album.' In England, helter-skelter is a playground ride. To Manson, helter-skelter meant a war between whites and blacks that the Beatles were in favor of.

Vincent Bugliosi

I've always been interested in violence, even as a teenager. I loved 'Helter Skelter' and books like that.

Karin Slaughter

It just annoyed me that people got so into the Beatles. "Beatles, Beatles, Beatles." It's not that I don't like talking about them. I've never stopped talking about them. It's "Beatles this, Beatles that, Beatles, Beatles, Beatles, Beatles." Then in the end, it's like "Oh, sod off with the Beatles," you know?

George Harrison

Truth is a rough, honest, helter-skelter terrier that none like to see brought into their drawing rooms.

Ouida

Helter skelter in a summer swelter.

Don McLean

The past scampers like an alley cat through the present, leaving the paw prints of memories scattered helter-skelter.

Charles de Lint

Perfectly ordered disorder designed with a helter-skelter magnificence.

Emily Carr

Execution halts your breath, helter skelter spiral death.

Ozzy Osbourne

I had this song called Helter Skelter, which is just a ridiculous song. So we did it like that, 'cuz I like noise.

Paul McCartney

Roecker sure is a romantic about certain things, like art and music, though you might not know it from watching Live Freaky! Die Freaky!, his claymation musical retelling of the Helter Skelter Charlie Manson saga.

John Roecker

I liked AC/DC," Lee said. "If you were going to shoot someone, you'd really want to do it while you were listening to them." "What about the Beatles? Did you feel like shooting anyone listening to them?" Lee considered seriously for a moment, then said, "Myself." At the same time he was laughing, Ig was distressed. Not liking the Beatles was almost as bad as not knowing about them at all.

Joe Hill

Before 'Veronica Mars,' I was not, and probably am still not, much of a crime reader. My mom left out a copy of 'Helter Skelter' when I was 10, and I secretly read it, and then I spent all my teenage years afraid of hippies. I kept away from crime books for, like, ten years.

Rob Thomas

Usually for the last play, everyone goes helter-skelter. They go to the wrong spots. They don't do the right thing.

John Stockton

Imagine a music business where all the music press talked about, all day long, was cover bands of old rock and pop groups. Beatles cover bands, Rolling Stones cover bands, The Who cover bands, Led Zeppelin cover bands. Cover bands, cover bands, everywhere you go.
