If being an egomaniac means I believe in what I do and in my art or music, then in that respect you can call me that... I believe in what I do, and I'll say it.
John Lennon

More quotes by John Lennon
Violence begets violence, you know. And you can't kill off all the violent people or all the murderers. We'd have to kill off the government.
John Lennon
I stopped listening to Dylan with both ears after Highway 64 (sic) and Blonde on Blonde, and even then it was because George (Harrison) would sit me down and make me listen.
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
Without a job all there is to life is boredom and insecurity.
John Lennon
And Paul hits this chord, and I turn to him and say, 'That's it! Do that again!' In those days we really used to absolutely write like that - both playing into each other's noses.
John Lennon
But for me at any rate it was all part of dissolving the God trip or father-figure trip. Facing up to reality instead of always looking for some kind of heaven.
John Lennon
Trying to please everybody is impossible - if you did that, you'd end up in the middle with nobody liking you. You've just got to make the decision about what you think is your best, and do it.
John Lennon
People like me are aware of their so-called genius at ten, eight, nine.
John Lennon
You can only breathe out if you breathe in.
John Lennon
They hit you at school, they hate you if your clever, and they despise a fool.
John Lennon
I really had a chip on my shoulder, ... and it still comes out every now and then.
John Lennon
You're jeans are full of crap. You're full of beans, you're in you teens. You've lost your mama's road map.
John Lennon
I want you to make love, not war, I know you've heard it before.
John Lennon
I am going into an unknown future, but I'm still all here, and still while there's life, there's hope.
John Lennon
What I'd have liked would have been the money and the hit records without the fame.
John Lennon
It's better to fade away like an old soldier than to burn out. I don't appreciate worship of dead Sid Vicious or of dead James Dean or of dead John Wayne. It's the same thing. Making Sid Vicious a hero, Jim Morrison - it's garbage to me. I worship the people who survive. Gloria Swanson, Greta Garbo.
John Lennon
We all have Hitler in us, but we also have love and peace. So why not give peace a chance for once?
John Lennon
I've never really been wanted.
John Lennon
One has to completely humiliate oneself to be what the Beatles were . . . . It happened bit by bit, until . . . you're doing exactly what you don't want to do with people you can't stand -- the people you hated when you were ten.
John Lennon
And so this is Xmas for black and for white, for yellow and red, let's stop all the fight.
John Lennon
