Life is what happens when we are busy doing other things. Peace is not something you wish for it's something you make, something you do, something you are and something you give away.

More quotes by John Lennon
If being an egomaniac means I believe in what I do and in my art or music, then in that respect you can call me that... I believe in what I do, and I'll say it.
John Lennon
In Western-style Communism we would have to create an almost imaginary workers' image of themselves as the father-figure.
John Lennon
Happiness is a good vibe for peace.
John Lennon
Nothing affected me until I heard Elvis. Without Elvis there would be no Beatles.
John Lennon
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.
John Lennon
I felt an obligation even then to write a song that people would sing in the pub or on a demonstration. That is why I would like to compose songs for the revolution.
John Lennon
Whenever in doubt, turn off your mind, relax, and float downstream.
John Lennon
It doesn't matter how long my hair is or what colour my skin is or whether I'm a woman or a man.
John Lennon
Sitting in an English Garden waiting for the sun If the sun don't come You get a tan from standing in the English rain.
John Lennon
It was my Fat Elvis period. I was eating and drinking like a pig. I was depressed and I was crying out for help. It's real. And I meant it.
John Lennon
I'm dissatisfied with every record the Beatles ever f***ing made. There ain't one of them I wouldn't remake.
John Lennon
When I find myself in times of trouble Mother Mary comes to me, speaking words of wisdom Let it be.
John Lennon
You either get tired fighting for peace, or you die.
John Lennon
Am I crazy or am I a genius? I don't think I'm either.
John Lennon
There were very few real folk singers you know, though I liked Dominic Behan a bit and there was some good stuff to be heard in Liverpool. Just occasionally you hear very old records on the radio or TV of real workers in Ireland or somewhere singing these songs and the power of them is fantastic.
John Lennon
Without Jimmy (James) Dean the Beatles would never have existed.
John Lennon
I just said what I said and it was wrong. Or it was taken wrong. And now it's all this.
John Lennon
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
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
I really thought that love would save us all.
John Lennon
