Will the people in the cheaper seats clap your hands? And the rest of you, if you'll just rattle your jewelry.

So long ago, was it in a dream, was it just a dream?
John Lennon
Image
We are all Christ and Hitler. Yoko and I want Christ to win.
John Lennon
Image
Yoko [Ono] was well into liberation before I met her. She'd had to fight her way through a man's world - the art world is completely dominated by men - so she was full of revolutionary zeal when we met.
John Lennon
Image
When somebody is angry with us, we draw a halo around his or her head, in our minds. Does the person stop being angry then? Well, we don't know! We know, though, that when we draw a halo around a person, suddenly the person starts to look like an angel to us.
John Lennon

All we are saying is give peace a chance.
John Lennon
Image
Everybody seems to think I'm lazy I don't mind, I think they're crazy. Running everywhere at such a speed Till they find there's no need.
John Lennon
Image
Whatever gets you through the night
John Lennon
Image
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
Image
You don't have to be a star to get a cheese sandwich. You just have to be first.
John Lennon
Image
I'm cynical about society, politics, newspapers, government. But I'm not cynical about life, love, goodness, death. That's why I really don't want to be labeled a cynic.
John Lennon
Image
Songwriting is like ... being possessed. You try to go to sleep but the song won't let you.
John Lennon
Image
I didn't leave the Beatles. The Beatles have left the Beatles, but no one wants to be the one to say the party's over.
John Lennon
Image
I believe in everything until it's disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind. Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now?
John Lennon
Image
We're more popular than Jesus Christ now.
John Lennon
Image
Nobody's ever tried the peace thing, ... We are selling it like soap.
John Lennon
Image
Music is everybody's possession. It's only publishers who think that people own it. If you were going to give Rock 'n' Roll another name you might as well call it Chuck Berry. We're more popular than Jesus now I don't know which will go first - Rock and Roll or Christianity.
John Lennon
Image
The writing of the Beatles, or John and Paul's contribution to the Beatles in the late sixties - had a kind of depth to it, a more mature, more intellectual approach. We were different people, we were older. We knew each other in all kinds of different ways than when we wrote together as teenagers and in our older twenties.
John Lennon
Image
Christianity will go. It will vanish and shrink. I needn't argue with that I'm right and I will be proved right. We're more popular than Jesus now I don't know which will go first - rock and roll or Christianity.
John Lennon
Image
When I cannot sing my heart, I can only speak my mind.
John Lennon
Image
You are not your emotions,you have emotions,and you can master them.
John Lennon
