Elvis died the day he went into the army.

I love commercial music! I can dissect it and criticize it with any critic in the business. But without any thought, I just enjoy it. It's folk music. That's what I'm doing, folk music. I'm not intellectualizing it . . . and making it into a phoney art form. I'm just doing the music I enjoy.
John Lennon

When I hold you in my arms and I feel my finger on your trigger I know no one can do me no harm because happiness is a warm gun.
John Lennon

Everything is as important as everything else.
John Lennon

The dream is over. I gotta get down to reality. The good old days is garbage.
John Lennon

One thing I can tell you is you have to be free. Come together, right now, over me.
John Lennon

There's nothing you can do that can't be done, Nothing you can sing that can't be sung, Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game, It's easy... All you need is love.

I've got used to the fact - just about - that whatever I do is going to be compared to the other Beatles. If I took up ballet dancing, my ballet dancing would be compared with Paul (McCartney)'s bowling.
John Lennon

Part of me suspects that I'm a loser, and the other part of me thinks I'm God Almighty.
John Lennon

Everything they told me as a kid has already been disproved by the same type of “experts” who made them up in the first place.
John Lennon
Image
I've always been politically minded, you know, and against the status quo.
John Lennon
Image
I only ever asked two people to work with me as a partner. One was Paul McCartney and the other Yoko Ono. Paul and me were the Beatles.
John Lennon
Image
Happiness Is A Warm Gun not about heroin. A gun magazine was sitting there with a smoking gun on the cover and an article that I never read inside called 'Happiness Is a Warm Gun.' I took it right from there. I took it as the terrible idea of just having shot some animal.

If there hadn't been an Elvis, there wouldn't have been the Beatles.
John Lennon

I think middle-class people have the biggest trauma if they have nice imagey parents, all smiling and dolled up.

That's what the great masters and mistresses have been saying ever since time began. They can point the way, leave signposts and little instructions in various books that are now called holy and worshipped for the cover of the book and not for what it says, but the instructions are all there for all to see, have always been and always will be.

I don't bother so much about the others' songs. For instance, I don't give a damn about how 'Something' is doing in the charts - I watch 'Come Together' (the flip side) because that's my song.

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

Nothing affected me until I heard Elvis. Without Elvis there would be no Beatles.

Listen, if anything happens to Yoko and me, it was not an accident.
