You're born in pain and pain is what we're in most of the time. And I think that the bigger the pain, the more gods we need.

More quotes by John Lennon
Songwriting is like ... being possessed. You try to go to sleep but the song won't let you.
John Lennon
That radicalism (of the '70s) was phony, really, because it was out of guilt. I'd always felt guilty that I made money, so I had to give it away or lose it. I don't mean I was a hypocrite. When I believe, I believe right down to the roots.
John Lennon
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.
John Lennon
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
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
I didn't come after Elvis and Dylan, I've been around always. But if I see or meet a great artist, I love 'em.
John Lennon
What Can I Tell You about Myself which You Have Not Already Found Out from Those Who Do Not Lie?
John Lennon
It matters not who you love, where you love, why you love, when you love or how you love, it matters only that you love
John Lennon
And Paul hits this chord, and I turn to him and say, 'That's it! Do that again!' In those days we really used to absolutely write like that - both playing into each other's noses.
John Lennon
I want you to make love, not war, I know you've heard it before.
John Lennon
I'm not really a career person I'm a gardener, basically.
John Lennon
I don't believe in Beatles.
John Lennon
Only by trying on other people's clothes do we find what size we are.
John Lennon
I really had a chip on my shoulder, ... and it still comes out every now and then.
John Lennon
I don't want to be king, I want to be real.
John Lennon
I've withdrawn many times. Part of me is a monk, and part a performing flea! The fear in the music business is that you don't exist if you're not at Xenon with Andy Warhol.
John Lennon
The dream is over. I gotta get down to reality. The good old days is garbage.
John Lennon
Strawberry Fields is anywhere you want to go
John Lennon
I'm not saying we're better or greater, or comparing us with Jesus Christ as a person, or God as a thing, or whatever it is. I just said what I said, and it was wrong, or it was taken wrong. And now it's all this.
John Lennon
Everything is as important as everything else.
John Lennon
