More quotes by John Lennon
The continual awareness of what was going on made me feel ashamed I wasn't saying anything. I burst out because I could no longer play that game any more, it was just too much for me.
John Lennon
Imagine there's no heaven... it's easy if you try.
John Lennon
I've withdrawn many times. Part of me is a monk, and part a performing flea! The fear in the music business is that you don't exist if you're not at Xenon with Andy Warhol.
John Lennon
When I was a child I experienced moments of not wanting to see the ugliness, not wanting to see not being wanted. This lack of love went into my eyes and into my mind.
John Lennon
Yeah we all shine on, like the moon, and the stars, and the sun.
John Lennon
The idea of being a rock and roll musician sort of suited my talents and mentality. The freedom was great, but then I found out I wasn't free. I'd got boxed in...The whole Beatle thing is just beyond comprehension ... subconsciously I was crying for help.
John Lennon
I don't believe in killing whatever the reason!
John Lennon
I thought the original Communist revolutionaries coordinated themselves a bit better and didn't go around shouting about it.
John Lennon
There are only a few notes. Just variations on a theme.
John Lennon
I can't speak for George, but I pretty damn well know we got fed up of being sidemen for Paul.
John Lennon
Part of me suspects that I'm a loser, and the other part of me thinks I'm God Almighty.
John Lennon
As I play the game of life, I try to make it better each and every day. And when I struggle in the night, The magic of the music seems to light the way.
John Lennon
We must always remember to thank the CIA and the Army for LSD. That's what people forget.... They invented LSD to control people and what they did was give us freedom.
John Lennon
I hope someday you will join us and the world will live as one.
John Lennon
I'm not claiming divinity. I've never claimed purity of soul. I've never claimed to have the answers to life. I only put out songs and answer questions as honestly as I can. But I still believe in peace, love and understanding.
John Lennon
Nothing happened in the sixties except that we all dressed up.
John Lennon
We went to America a few times and [Brian] Epstein always tried to waffle on at us about saying nothing about Vietnam. So there came a time when George [Harrison] and I said 'Listen, when they ask next time, we're going to say we don't like that war and we think they should get right out.' That's what we did.
John Lennon
I had a lot of it in my day, but I don't like it. It's a dumb drug. Your whole concentration goes on getting the next fix. I find caffeine easier to deal with.
John Lennon
I am the eggman They are the eggmen! I am the walrus!
John Lennon
It was my Fat Elvis period. I was eating and drinking like a pig. I was depressed and I was crying out for help. It's real. And I meant it.
John Lennon
