I never listen to the radio. If it's bad, I make fun of it, and if it's good, I get jealous that I didn't think of it.

More quotes by John Lennon
When I cannot sing my heart, I can only speak my mind.
John Lennon
Love is a promise love is a souvenir.
John Lennon
Life is what's going on while your making other plans.
John Lennon
One has to completely humiliate oneself to be what the Beatles were . . . . It happened bit by bit, until . . . you're doing exactly what you don't want to do with people you can't stand -- the people you hated when you were ten.
John Lennon
When somebody is angry with us, we draw a halo around his or her head, in our minds. Does the person stop being angry then? Well, we don't know! We know, though, that when we draw a halo around a person, suddenly the person starts to look like an angel to us.
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.
John Lennon
How can I go forward when I don't know which way I'm facing?
John Lennon
You're born in pain and pain is what we're in most of the time. And I think that the bigger the pain, the more gods we need.
John Lennon
I feel now at 53 I have grown into a deeper understanding of what a human life is.
John Lennon
I've never really been wanted.
John Lennon
Everything is true and not true about everything. That’s one thing I’ve learned.
John Lennon
Nothing happened in the sixties except that we all dressed up.
John Lennon
Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we're being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That's what's insane about it.
John Lennon
I don't believe in Elvis.
John Lennon
I only ever asked two people to work with me as a partner. One was Paul McCartney and the other Yoko Ono. Paul and me were the Beatles.
John Lennon
The lyrics stand today (1980). They're still my feeling about politics. I want to see the plan. I want to know what you're going to do after you've knocked it all down. I mean, can't we use some of it? What's the point of bombing Wall Street? If you want to change the system, change the system. It's no good shooting people.
John Lennon
Avant-garde is French for bullshit
John Lennon
You don't need anybody to tell you who you are or what you are. You are what you are!
John Lennon
If I had the capabilities of being something other than I am, I would. It's no fun being an artist. You know what it's like, writing, it's torture.
John Lennon
The more I see the less I know for sure.
John Lennon
