We're crazy about this city. Los Angeles? That's just a big parking lot where you buy a hamburger for the trip to San Francisco.

More quotes by John Lennon

Image
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
Image
When I was a child I experienced moments of not wanting to see the ugliness, not wanting to see not being wanted. This lack of love went into my eyes and into my mind.
John Lennon
Image
Mother, you had me, but I never had you.
John Lennon
Image
Without a job all there is to life is boredom and insecurity.
John Lennon
Image
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
Image
The establishment will irritate you - pull your beard, flick your face - to make you fight. Because once they've got you violent, then they know how to handle you. The only thing they don't know how to handle is non-violence and humor.
John Lennon
Image
I thought I was painting in sound a picture of revolution - but I made a mistake, you know. The mistake was that it was anti-revolution.
John Lennon
Image
I always like the studio best, once I got the hang of it and the control. I like it because it's complete control
John Lennon
Image
Why don't people believe us when we say we're simply in love?
John Lennon
Image
Yeah we all shine on, like the moon, and the stars, and the sun.
John Lennon
Image
Happiness is a good vibe for peace.
John Lennon
Image
You're only awake when you realise you're awake and when you're dreaming, it is just as real, whatever happens is just as real - whether you actually do die in a dream or fulfil whatever you're doing in a dream, it's, there's nobody to tell me it isn't as real as this now, because how do you know?
John Lennon

When you cross the street, take my hand
John Lennon
Image
You say you want a revolution? Well, you know. We all want to change the world.
John Lennon
Image
Yoko [Ono] was well into liberation before I met her. She'd had to fight her way through a man's world - the art world is completely dominated by men - so she was full of revolutionary zeal when we met.
John Lennon
Image
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
Image
These critics with the illusions they've created about artists - it's like idol worship. They only like people when they're on their way up... I cannot be on the way up again.
John Lennon
Image
Man, you should have seen them kicking Edgar Allan Poe.
John Lennon
Image
I remember a time when everybody I loved hated me because I hated them.
John Lennon
Image
Listen, if anything happens to Yoko and me, it was not an accident.
John Lennon
