They hit you at school, they hate you if your clever, and they despise a fool.
John Lennon

I don't know if I want to record together again. I go off and on it... In the old days, when we needed an album, Paul and I got together and produced enough songs for it. Nowadays, there's three of us writing prolifically and trying to fit it all into one album.

Love is the flower you've got to let grow.

Living is Easy with Eyes Closed.

Everything is as important as everything else.
John Lennon

I'm cynical about society, politics, newspapers, government. But I'm not cynical about life, love, goodness, death. That's why I really don't want to be labeled a cynic.
John Lennon

When you're in love, when somebody says something like, How can you be with that woman? you say, What do you mean? I am with this goddess of love, the fulfillment of my whole life. Why are you saying this? Why do you want to throw a rock at her or punish me for being in love with her?
John Lennon

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

Songwriting is like ... being possessed. You try to go to sleep but the song won't let you.
John Lennon

I believe that time wounds all heals. (karma)
John Lennon

I'm not saying we're better or greater, or comparing us with Jesus Christ as a person, or God as a thing, or whatever it is. I just said what I said, and it was wrong, or it was taken wrong. And now it's all this.
John Lennon
Image
if everyone could just be happy with themselves and the choices people around them make, the world would instantly be a better place!
John Lennon
Image
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
Image
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

The whole Beatle thing was just beyond comprehension. When 'Help' came out, I was actually crying out for help. Most people think it's just a fast rock 'n roll song. I didn't realize it at the time I just wrote the song because I was commissioned to write it for the movie. But later, I knew I really was crying out for help.

Imagine ... Imagine no religion.

So long ago, was it in a dream, was it just a dream?

Without a job all there is to life is boredom and insecurity.

Songwriting is about getting the demon out of me. It's like being possessed.
