Songwriting is like ... being possessed. You try to go to sleep but the song won't let you.
John Lennon
Image
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
Image
I stopped listening to Dylan with both ears after Highway 64 (sic) and Blonde on Blonde, and even then it was because George (Harrison) would sit me down and make me listen.
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
You are not your emotions,you have emotions,and you can master them.
John Lennon

How can I go forward when I don't know which way I'm facing?
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.

The worst drugs are as bad as anybody's told you. It's just a dumb trip, which I can't condemn people if they get into it, because one gets into it for one's own personal, social, emotional reasons. It's something to be avoided if one can help it.
John Lennon

It was a choice of making it or still eating chicken onstage.
John Lennon
Image
I believe Jesus was right, Buddha was right, and all of those people like that are right. They're all saying the same thing - and I believe it. I believe what Jesus actually said - the basic things he laid down about love and goodness - and not what people say he said.
John Lennon

A more interesting question is not 'Why did they break up?' but 'Would they have gotten back together?' ... There's always a chance we'd work together again, but I can't see us touring. I just see us making records.
John Lennon
Image
When I started, rock and roll itself was the basic revolution to people of my age and situation. We needed something loud and clear to break through all the unfeeling and repression that had been coming down on us kids.
John Lennon
Image
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.

As usual, there is a great woman behind every idiot.
John Lennon

Sarcasim is the lowest form of humor.
John Lennon
Image
Once the new power has taken over they have to establish a new status quo just to keep the factories and trains running.
John Lennon
Image
I really thought that love would save us all.
John Lennon
Image
We were really professional by the time we got to the States we had learned the whole game. When we arrived here we knew how to handle the press the British press were the toughest in the world and we could handle anything. We were all right.
John Lennon

I've never really been wanted.
John Lennon
Image
I want you to make love, not war, I know you've heard it before.
John Lennon
