More quotes by 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
Music is everybody's possession. It's only publishers who think that people own it.
John Lennon
What I'd have liked would have been the money and the hit records without the fame.
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.
John Lennon
It was a choice of making it or still eating chicken onstage.
John Lennon
I still believe in peace, love and understanding.
John Lennon
We were really professional by the time we got to the States we had learned the whole game. When we arrived here we knew how to handle the press the British press were the toughest in the world and we could handle anything. We were all right.
John Lennon
If there hadn't been an Elvis, there wouldn't have been the Beatles.
John Lennon
I never went to high school reunions. My thing is, out of sight, out of mind. That's my attitude toward life. So I don't have any romanticism about any part of my past.
John Lennon
It doesn't matter how long my hair is or what colour my skin is or whether I'm a woman or a man.
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
Love is like a flower - you have to let it grow.
John Lennon
I didn't really know that much about the Maoists, but I just knew that they seemed to be so few and yet they painted themselves green and stood in front of the police waiting to get picked off.
John Lennon
If there's anything that you want, If there's anything I can do, Just call on me, And I'll send it along with love from me to you.
John Lennon
There are places I'll remember All my life though some have changed Some forever not for better Some have gone and some remain All these places have their moments With lovers and friends I still can recall Some are dead and some are living In my life I've loved them all
John Lennon
We all have Hitler in us, but we also have love and peace. So why not give peace a chance for once?
John Lennon
Meanings of all songs come after they are recorded. Someone else has to interpret them
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.
John Lennon
But for me at any rate it was all part of dissolving the God trip or father-figure trip. Facing up to reality instead of always looking for some kind of heaven.
John Lennon
