Nothing really affected me until Elvis.

Why in the world are we here? Surely not to live in pain and fear. Why on earth are you there, when you're everywhere - come and get your share.
John Lennon
Image
Am I crazy or am I a genius? I don't think I'm either.
John Lennon

Rituals are important.
John Lennon

We should be trying to reach the young workers because that's when you're most idealistic and have least fear.
John Lennon

He didn't come out of my belly, but my God, I've made his bones, because I've attended to every meal, and how he sleeps, and the fact that he swims like a fish because I took him to the ocean. I'm so proud of all those things. But he is my biggest pride.

It depends who they are. If it's Mick (Jagger) or the Old Guard as I call them, yeah, they're the Old Guard. Elton (John), David (Bowie) are the newies. I don't feel like an old uncle, dear, 'cause I'm not that much older than half of 'em, hehe.

Mostly folk music is people with fruity voices trying to keep alive something old and dead. It's all a bit boring, like ballet: a minority thing kept going by a minority group.

Surrealism to me is reality. Psychedelic vision is reality to me and always was.
John Lennon

I feel now at 53 I have grown into a deeper understanding of what a human life is.
John Lennon

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

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
Imagine there's no heaven, it's easy if you try. No hell below us, above us only sky. Imagine all the people living for today...

You don't have to be some sort of freak to meditate
John Lennon

When you're thirty-five, you can't take as much booze ... and I always got a little violent on drink...So it was kind of self-destructive suicide side of me, which is resolving itself for the better, I believe, because I never enjoyed it.
John Lennon

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.

If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there'd be peace.
John Lennon

Nobody's ever tried the peace thing, ... We are selling it like soap.
