I am the eggman They are the eggmen! I am the walrus!
John Lennon
Image
I never went to high school reunions. My thing is, out of sight, out of mind. That's my attitude toward life. So I don't have any romanticism about any part of my past.
John Lennon
Image
They hit you at school, they hate you if your clever, and they despise a fool.
John Lennon
Image
We live in a world where we have to hide to make love, while violence is practiced in broad daylight.
John Lennon
Image
I can't play guitar, but I can sure make it howl.
John Lennon
Image
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.
John Lennon
Image
Everything is true and not true about everything. That’s one thing I’ve learned.
John Lennon
Image
The basic thing nobody asks is why do people take drugs of any sort? Why do we have these accessories to normal living to live? I mean, is there something wrong with society that's making us so pressurized, that we cannot live without guarding ourselves against it?
John Lennon

It was very romantic. It's all in the song, The Ballad of John and Yoko. If you want to know how it happened, it's in there. Gibraltar was like a little sunny dream. I couldn't find a white suit - I had sort of off-white corduroy trousers and a white jacket. Yoko had all white on.

Image
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
Image
I didn't really know that much about the Maoists, but I just knew that they seemed to be so few and yet they painted themselves green and stood in front of the police waiting to get picked off.
John Lennon
Image
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.
John Lennon
Image
When somebody is angry with us, we draw a halo around his or her head, in our minds. Does the person stop being angry then? Well, we don't know! We know, though, that when we draw a halo around a person, suddenly the person starts to look like an angel to us.
John Lennon

Without a job all there is to life is boredom and insecurity.
John Lennon
Image
If there's anything that you want, If there's anything I can do, Just call on me, And I'll send it along with love from me to you.
John Lennon
Image
Nothing really affected me until Elvis.
John Lennon

Yoko [Ono] was well into liberation before I met her. She'd had to fight her way through a man's world - the art world is completely dominated by men - so she was full of revolutionary zeal when we met.
John Lennon
Image
All you need is love. I believe it. It's damn hard, but I absolutely believe it.
John Lennon

I don't know if I want to record together again. I go off and on it... In the old days, when we needed an album, Paul and I got together and produced enough songs for it. Nowadays, there's three of us writing prolifically and trying to fit it all into one album.

You don't have to be some sort of freak to meditate
