More quotes by 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
One thing you can't hide - is when you're crippled inside.
John Lennon
I'm always proud and pleased when people do my songs. It gives me pleasure that they even attempt them, because a lot of my songs aren't that doable.
John Lennon
I found I was having continually to please the sort of people I'd always hated when I was a child. This began to bring me back to reality.
John Lennon
There's nothing new under the sun. All the roads lead to Rome. And people cannot provide it for you. I can't wake you up. You can wake you up. I can't cure you. You can cure you.
John Lennon
I'm not going to change the way I look or the way I feel to conform to anything.
John Lennon
We gave up everything just to sit at your table.
John Lennon
What I'd have liked would have been the money and the hit records without the fame.
John Lennon
People never grasp the fact that they're going to have to go through the same thing again. They get to the sort of five-year stretch or the seven-year itch or whatever these tension points are that seem to be organic, built in, like the tide coming in and going out. It's like every time the tide goes out you quit--you move your house or something.
John Lennon
If I'd lived in Roman times, I'd have lived in Rome. Where else? Today America is the Roman Empire and New York is Rome itself.
John Lennon
Man, you should have seen them kicking Edgar Allan Poe.
John Lennon
I've never met anybody who's had a flashback in my life and I took millions of trips in the Sixties, and I've never met anybody who had any problem. I've had bad trips, but I've had bad trips in real life. I've had a bad trip on a joint. I can get paranoid just sitting in a restaurant I don't have to take anything.
John Lennon
Lack of feeling in an emotional sense is responsible for the way some singers do our songs. They don't understand and are too old to grasp the feeling. Beatles are really the only people who can play Beatle music.
John Lennon
The more real you get, the more unreal everything else is.
John Lennon
I believe in everything until it's disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind. Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now?
John Lennon
Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes They call me on and on across the universe Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box They tumble blindly as they make their way across the universe
John Lennon
Millions of mind guerrillas, raising the spirit of peace and love, not war.
John Lennon
We went to America a few times and [Brian] Epstein always tried to waffle on at us about saying nothing about Vietnam. So there came a time when George [Harrison] and I said 'Listen, when they ask next time, we're going to say we don't like that war and we think they should get right out.' That's what we did.
John Lennon
The cross of the Legion of Honor has been conferred on me. However, few escape that distinction.
John Lennon
In my case I've never not been political, though religion tended to overshadow it in my acid days.
John Lennon
