I'm not going to sacrifice love, real love, for any *%@$n' war or any friend, or any business, because in the end you're alone at night.

I don't mind looking to the camera - it's people that throw me.
John Lennon
Image
The world went mad and used us as an excuse.
John Lennon
Image
There is not one thing that's Beatle music. How can they talk about it like that? What is Beatle music? Walrus or Penny Lane? Which? It's too diverse: I Want to Hold Your Hand or Revolution Number Nine?
John Lennon
Image
It's like being possessed: like a psychic or a medium. I felt like a hollow temple filled with many spirits, each one passing through me, each inhabiting me for a little time and then leaving to be replaced by another.
John Lennon

The worst drugs are as bad as anybody's told you. It's just a dumb trip, which I can't condemn people if they get into it, because one gets into it for one's own personal, social, emotional reasons. It's something to be avoided if one can help it.
John Lennon

It was very romantic. It's all in the song, The Ballad of John and Yoko. If you want to know how it happened, it's in there. Gibraltar was like a little sunny dream. I couldn't find a white suit - I had sort of off-white corduroy trousers and a white jacket. Yoko had all white on.

If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there'd be peace.
John Lennon
Image
The first line (of I Am The Walrus) was written on one acid trip one weekend. The second line was written on the next acid trip the next weekend, and it was filled in after I met Yoko.

Living is Easy with Eyes Closed.
John Lennon

We want to go forward, but which way are we facing?
John Lennon
Image
In my case I've never not been political, though religion tended to overshadow it in my acid days.
John Lennon
Image
There's nothing you can do that can't be done.
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
As a child I did a lot of imaginary bits, you know. It depends on the individual, I enjoyed then knocking the nail in, I enjoy knocking nails in walls to hang pictures up, but I also enjoy thinking 'I'm gonna do that' but I actually won't do it, I enjoy imagining doing things just as much.
John Lennon

Happiness is a good vibe for peace.
John Lennon
Image
You either get tired fighting for peace, or you die.
John Lennon
Image
Peace in your mind, peace on earth, peace at work, peace at home, peace in the world.
John Lennon
Image
Yeah we all shine on, like the moon, and the stars, and the sun.
John Lennon

I can't play guitar, but I can sure make it howl.

I am the eggman They are the eggmen! I am the walrus!
