More quotes by John Lennon
I remember a time when everybody I loved hated me because I hated them.
John Lennon
There was never any question about it: we [with Yoko Ono] had to have a 50-50 relationship or there was no relationship, I was quick to learn.
John Lennon
I wasn't saying whatever they're saying I was saying. I'm sorry I said it really. I never meant it to be a lousy anti-religious thing. I apologize if that will make you happy. I still don't know quite what I've done. I've tried to tell you what I did do but if you want me to apologize, if that will make you happy, then OK, I'm sorry.
John Lennon
You can go to church and sing a hymn, Judge me by the colour of my skin, You can live a lie until you die, One thing you can't hide is when you're crippled inside.
John Lennon
Produce your own dream. If you want to save Peru, go save Peru. It’s quite possible to do anything, but not if you put it on the leaders and the parking meters. Don’t expect Carter or Reagan or John Lennon or Yoko Ono or Bob Dylan or Jesus Christ to come and do it for you. You have to do it yourself.
John Lennon
What Can I Tell You about Myself which You Have Not Already Found Out from Those Who Do Not Lie?
John Lennon
I thought of nothing else but rock 'n' roll apart from sex and food and money--but that's all the same thing, really.
John Lennon
We're more popular than Jesus Christ now.
John Lennon
People asking questions, lost in confusion, well I tell them there's no problem, only solutions.
John Lennon
One more stage, one more limo, one more run for your life.
John Lennon
Get back to where you once belonged.
John Lennon
I didn't leave the Beatles. The Beatles have left the Beatles, but no one wants to be the one to say the party's over.
John Lennon
There are only a few notes. Just variations on a theme.
John Lennon
In Western-style Communism we would have to create an almost imaginary workers' image of themselves as the father-figure.
John Lennon
If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there'd be peace.
John Lennon
If I'd lived in Roman times, I'd have lived in Rome. Where else? Today America is the Roman Empire and New York is Rome itself.
John Lennon
I started being me about the songs, not writing objectively, but subjectively. I think it was Dylan who helped me realize that - not by any discussion or anything, but by hearing his work.
John Lennon
I'm a freakin' artist, man, not a (expletive) race horse.
John Lennon
The dream is over. I gotta get down to reality. The good old days is garbage.
John Lennon
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.
