More quotes by John Lennon
They hit you at school, they hate you if your clever, and they despise a fool.
John Lennon
Nothing affected me until I heard Elvis. Without Elvis there would be no Beatles.
John Lennon
You don't have to be a star to get a cheese sandwich. You just have to be first.
John Lennon
All music is rehash. There are only a few notes. Just variations on a theme. Try to tell the kids in the Seventies who were screaming to the Bee Gees that their music was just The Beatles redone. There is nothing wrong with the Bee Gees.
John Lennon
I think it's the best thing I've ever done. I think it's realistic, and it's true to the me that has been developing over the years. I like first-person music.
John Lennon
Why in the world are we here? Surely not to live in pain and fear. Why on earth are you there, when you're everywhere - come and get your share.
John Lennon
The more real you get, the more unreal everything else is.
John Lennon
We were always going to dump him when we found a decent drummer.
John Lennon
I don't want to be king, I want to be real.
John Lennon
As usual, there is a great woman behind every idiot.
John Lennon
The whole thing died in my mind long before the rumpus started. We used to believe the Beatles myth just as much as the public and we were in love with them just the same way. But we were four individuals who eventually recovered our individualities after being submerged in a myth.
John Lennon
When I get older losing my hair many years from now. Will you still be sending me a Valentine. Birthday greetings, bottle of wine? If I'd been out till quarter to three would you lock the door? Will you still need me, will you still feed me, When I'm sixty-four?
John Lennon
I was stuck in the feeling that one did not--was not justified in being alive unless one was fulfilling other people's dreams, whether they were contractual dreams or the public's dreams, or fulfilling my own dreams and illusions about what I thought I was supposed to be, which, in retrospect, turned out to not be what I am.
John Lennon
There are no problems, only solutions.
John Lennon
Nobody's ever tried the peace thing, ... We are selling it like soap.
John Lennon
As a kid I had a dream - I wanted to own my own bicycle. When I got the bike I must have been the happiest boy in Liverpool, maybe the world. I lived for that bike. Most kids left their bike in the backyard at night. Not me. I insisted on taking mine indoors and the first night I even kept it in my bed.
John Lennon
I was feeling insecure you might not love me anymore
John Lennon
I believe in what I do, and I'll say it.
John Lennon
Now The Beatles are four separate people, we don't have the impact we had when we were together.
John Lennon
Before many black singers were still labouring under that problem of God it was often 'God will save us'. But right through the blacks were singing directly and immediately about their pain and also about sex, which is why I like it.
John Lennon
