Quote

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

You see, we're influenced by whatever's going. Even if we're not influenced, we're all going that way at a certain time. If we played a Stones record now - and a Beatles record - and we've been way apart, you'd find a lot of similarities. We're all heavy. Just heavy.

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

My role in society, or any artist's or poet's role, is to try and express what we all feel. Not to tell people how to feel. Not as a preacher, not as a leader, but as a reflection of us all.
John Lennon
Image
Work is life, you know, and without it, there's nothing but fear and insecurity.
John Lennon

Remember to let her into your heart.
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.

We are all Christ and Hitler. Yoko and I want Christ to win.

You know the way people begin to look like their dogs? Well, we're beginning to look like each other.

Nothing affected me until I heard Elvis. Without Elvis there would be no Beatles.
