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.

We were all on this ship in the sixties, our generation, a ship going to discover the New World. And the Beatles were in the crow's nest of that ship.
John Lennon

What I'd have liked would have been the money and the hit records without the fame.
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

Leave a space and something will fill it.
John Lennon

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see. It's getting hard to be someone but it all works out. It doesn't matter much to me.

The whole Beatle thing was just beyond comprehension. When 'Help' came out, I was actually crying out for help. Most people think it's just a fast rock 'n roll song. I didn't realize it at the time I just wrote the song because I was commissioned to write it for the movie. But later, I knew I really was crying out for help.

Imagine no possesions, I wonder if you can, No need for greed or hunger, A brotherhood of man. Imagine all the people Sharing all the world.
John Lennon

My life with the Beatles had become a trap... I always remember to thank Jesus for the end of my touring days if I hadn't said that the Beatles were 'bigger than Jesus' and upset the very Christian Ku Klux Klan, well, Lord, I might still be up there with all the other performing fleas! God bless America. Thank you, Jesus.

You can't give a child too much love and if you love somebody, you can't be with them enough. There's no such thing.
John Lennon
Image
I'm not afraid of death because I don't believe in it. It's just getting out of one car, and into another
John Lennon
Image
I believe in everything until it's disproved.
John Lennon
Image
There's room at the top they are telling you still, but first you must learn how to smile as you kill.
John Lennon
Image
All you need is love. I believe it. It's damn hard, but I absolutely believe it.
John Lennon

We should be trying to reach the young workers because that's when you're most idealistic and have least fear.
John Lennon

Please don’t spoil my day I’m miles away and, after all, I’m only sleeping.
John Lennon

You can only breathe out if you breathe in.
John Lennon

Half of what I say is meaningless, but I say it just to reach you.
John Lennon

The second political thing I did was to say 'The Beatles are bigger than Jesus.' That really broke the scene, I nearly got shot in America for that. It was a big trauma for all the kids that were following us.

It doesn't matter how long my hair is or what colour my skin is or whether I'm a woman or a man.
