More quotes by John Lennon
All this bit about angels and all the different religions, it's based on something. I think anything's possible. I believe in everything until it's disproved.
John Lennon
You either get tired fighting for peace, or you die.
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
Look, I wasn't saying the Beatles are better than God or Jesus. I said 'Beatles' because it's easy for me to talk about Beatles. I could have said TV or the cinema, motor cars or anything popular and I would have gotten away with it.
John Lennon
We gave up everything just to sit at your table.
John Lennon
God is a concept by which we measure our pain. I'll say it again. God is a concept by which we measure our pain.
John Lennon
We were always going to dump him when we found a decent drummer.
John Lennon
I want you to make love, not war, I know you've heard it before.
John Lennon
There is a time to let things happen, and a time to make things happen. Life is what happens when you are making other plans.
John Lennon
I'm not going to change the way I look or the way I feel to conform to anything.
John Lennon
Nothing happened in the sixties except that we all dressed up.
John Lennon
As in a love affair, two creative people can destroy themselves trying to recapture that youthful spirit, at twenty-one or twenty-four, of creating without even being aware of how it's happening
John Lennon
Imagine ... Imagine no religion.
John Lennon
Nobody's ever tried the peace thing, ... We are selling it like soap.
John Lennon
Surrealism to me is reality. Psychedelic vision is reality to me and always was.
John Lennon
We live in a world where we have to hide to make love, while violence is practiced in broad daylight.
John Lennon
It's better to fade away like an old soldier than to burn out. I don't appreciate worship of dead Sid Vicious or of dead James Dean or of dead John Wayne. It's the same thing. Making Sid Vicious a hero, Jim Morrison - it's garbage to me. I worship the people who survive. Gloria Swanson, Greta Garbo.
John Lennon
The more real you get, the more unreal everything else is.
John Lennon
If somebody gives me a joint, I might smoke it, but I don't go after it.
John Lennon
Everybody seems to think I'm lazy I don't mind, I think they're crazy. Running everywhere at such a speed Till they find there's no need.
John Lennon
