More quotes by John Lennon
Once the new power has taken over they have to establish a new status quo just to keep the factories and trains running.
John Lennon
Imagine there's no varmints. It isn't hard to do.
John Lennon
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
I've withdrawn many times. Part of me is a monk, and part a performing flea! The fear in the music business is that you don't exist if you're not at Xenon with Andy Warhol.
John Lennon
I don't believe in killing whatever the reason!
John Lennon
I'll give you everything I've got for a little peace of mind
John Lennon
All you need is love. I believe it. It's damn hard, but I absolutely believe it.
John Lennon
Whatever gets you through the night
John Lennon
I don't believe in Elvis.
John Lennon
The dream is over. I gotta get down to reality. The good old days is garbage.
John Lennon
I felt an obligation even then to write a song that people would sing in the pub or on a demonstration. That is why I would like to compose songs for the revolution.
John Lennon
Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted.
John Lennon
To begin with, working class people reacted against our openness about sex. They are frightened of nudity, they're repressed in that way as well as others. Perhaps they thought 'Paul [McCartney] is a good lad, he doesn't make trouble'.
John Lennon
People asking questions, lost in confusion, well I tell them there's no problem, only solutions.
John Lennon
Rituals are important. Nowadays it's hip not to be married. I'm not interested in being hip.
John Lennon
When we got married, we knew our honeymoon was going to be public, anyway, so we decided to use it to make a statement. We sat in bed and talked to reporters for seven days. It was hilarious. In effect, we were doing a commercial for peace on the front page of the papers instead of a commercial for war.
John Lennon
I think middle-class people have the biggest trauma if they have nice imagey parents, all smiling and dolled up.
John Lennon
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.
John Lennon
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.
John Lennon
Meanings of all songs come after they are recorded. Someone else has to interpret them
John Lennon
