How poetry comes to the poet is a mystery.
John Lennon

Music is everybody's possession. It's only publishers who think that people own it. If you were going to give Rock 'n' Roll another name you might as well call it Chuck Berry. We're more popular than Jesus now I don't know which will go first - Rock and Roll or Christianity.

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.

People asking questions, lost in confusion, well I tell them there's no problem, only solutions.
John Lennon

It's weird not to be weird.

Don't need a gun to blow your mind
John Lennon
Image
All the revolutions have happened when a Fidel or Marx or Lenin or whatever, who were intellectuals, were able to get through to the workers. They got a good pocket of people together and the workers seemed to understand that they were in a repressed state.
John Lennon

You either get tired fighting for peace, or you die.
John Lennon

Nothing happened in the sixties except that we all dressed up.
John Lennon

The only reason I am a star is because of my repression. Nothing else would have driven me through all that if I was 'normal'.
John Lennon
Image
Please don’t spoil my day I’m miles away and, after all, I’m only sleeping.
John Lennon

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