In a rare display of humility Paul McCartney once admitted that his original idea for perhaps his most famous (and best) song was 'Scrambled Eggs'. The chorus went something like, 'Scrambled eggs, how I loved your legs' and so on. This highlights the importance of knowing when to stop and when to go on when creating any work of art. It is a good job for Paul and for everyone else that he decided to have another look at his efforts. At the same time many works of art can be spoiled, their freshness destroyed by an over-zelous examination by their creator.
