Imagine there's no heaven... it's easy if you try.
John Lennon
Image
I'm always proud and pleased when people do my songs. It gives me pleasure that they even attempt them, because a lot of my songs aren't that doable.
John Lennon
Image
Love is like a flower - you have to let it grow.
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
Image
We all have Hitler in us, but we also have love and peace. So why not give peace a chance for once?
John Lennon
Image
Peace in your mind, peace on earth, peace at work, peace at home, peace in the world.
John Lennon
Image
As someone from the working class I was always interested in Russia and China and everything that related to the working class, even though I was playing the capitalist game.
John Lennon
Image
We live in a world where we have to hide to make love, while violence is practiced in broad daylight.
John Lennon
Image
I'm dissatisfied with every record the Beatles ever f***ing made. There ain't one of them I wouldn't remake.
John Lennon
Image
Don't underestimate the importance of happiness. As long as you're happy, who cares what you do?
John Lennon
Image
The cross of the Legion of Honor has been conferred on me. However, few escape that distinction.
John Lennon
Image
Before Elvis there was nothing.
John Lennon
Image
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
Image
if everyone could just be happy with themselves and the choices people around them make, the world would instantly be a better place!
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 don't believe in Beatles.
John Lennon
Image
I'm not going to change the way I look or the way I feel to conform to anything.
John Lennon
Image
Nothing affected me until I heard Elvis. Without Elvis there would be no Beatles.
John Lennon
Image
As in a love affair, two creative people can destroy themselves trying to recapture that youthful spirit, at twenty-one or twenty-four, of creating without even being aware of how it's happening
John Lennon
Image
Meanings of all songs come after they are recorded. Someone else has to interpret them
