More quotes by John Lennon
Music is everybody's possession. It's only publishers who think that people own it.
John Lennon
I'm an Elvis fan because it was Elvis who really got me out of Liverpool.
John Lennon
Whenever in doubt, turn off your mind, relax, and float downstream.
John Lennon
I believe time wounds all heels.
John Lennon
If I had the capabilities of being something other than I am, I would. It's no fun being an artist. You know what it's like, writing, it's torture.
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
When I find myself in times of trouble Mother Mary comes to me, speaking words of wisdom Let it be.
John Lennon
Imagine no possesions, I wonder if you can, No need for greed or hunger, A brotherhood of man. Imagine all the people Sharing all the world.
John Lennon
How can I give love when I don't know what it is I'm giving?
John Lennon
There's room at the top they are telling you still, but first you must learn how to smile as you kill.
John Lennon
Instant Karma's gonna get you, gonna knock you right on the head
John Lennon
Listen, if anything happens to Yoko and me, it was not an accident.
John Lennon
I think middle-class people have the biggest trauma if they have nice imagey parents, all smiling and dolled up.
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
There are only a few notes. Just variations on a theme.
John Lennon
I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together.
John Lennon
I didn't come after Elvis and Dylan, I've been around always. But if I see or meet a great artist, I love 'em.
John Lennon
Everything they told me as a kid has already been disproved by the same type of “experts” who made them up in the first place.
John Lennon
Happiness Is A Warm Gun not about heroin. A gun magazine was sitting there with a smoking gun on the cover and an article that I never read inside called 'Happiness Is a Warm Gun.' I took it right from there. I took it as the terrible idea of just having shot some animal.
John Lennon
The only reason I went for that goal is that I wanted to say: 'Now, mummy-daddy, will you love me?'
John Lennon
