Laurel and Hardy. That's John and Yoko, and we stand a better chance under that guise, because all the serious people, like Martin Luther King, and Kennedy, and Gandhi, got shot.

More quotes by John Lennon
I've got used to the fact - just about - that whatever I do is going to be compared to the other Beatles. If I took up ballet dancing, my ballet dancing would be compared with Paul (McCartney)'s bowling.
John Lennon
The writing of the Beatles, or John and Paul's contribution to the Beatles in the late sixties - had a kind of depth to it, a more mature, more intellectual approach. We were different people, we were older. We knew each other in all kinds of different ways than when we wrote together as teenagers and in our older twenties.
John Lennon
Pools of sorrow. Waves of joy.
John Lennon
Leave a space and something will fill it.
John Lennon
Why in the world are we here? Surely not to live in pain and fear. Why on earth are you there, when you're everywhere - come and get your share.
John Lennon
I started being me about the songs, not writing objectively, but subjectively. I think it was Dylan who helped me realize that - not by any discussion or anything, but by hearing his work.
John Lennon
Father, you left me, but I never left you.
John Lennon
Life happens whilst you're planning other things.
John Lennon
People think the Beatles know what's going on. We don't. We're just doing it.
John Lennon
Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end.
John Lennon
We must always remember to thank the CIA and the Army for LSD. That's what people forget.... They invented LSD to control people and what they did was give us freedom.
John Lennon
We're more popular than Jesus Christ now.
John Lennon
Whenever in doubt, turn off your mind, relax, and float downstream.
John Lennon
Love is the Answer. What was the Question?
John Lennon
There's nothing you can do that can't be done, Nothing you can sing that can't be sung, Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game, It's easy... All you need is love.
John Lennon
In my case I've never not been political, though religion tended to overshadow it in my acid days.
John Lennon
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
I always was a rebel...but on the other hand, I wanted to be loved and accepted...and not just be a loudmouth, lunatic, poet, musician. But I cannot be what I am not.
John Lennon
Creativity is a gift. It doesn't come through if the air is cluttered.
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
