More quotes by John Lennon
Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end.
John Lennon
You better get yourself together, darling, and join the human race.
John Lennon
Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted.
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
All music is rehash. There are only a few notes. Just variations on a theme. Try to tell the kids in the Seventies who were screaming to the Bee Gees that their music was just The Beatles redone. There is nothing wrong with the Bee Gees.
John Lennon
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
We want to go forward, but which way are we facing?
John Lennon
Man, you should have seen them kicking Edgar Allan Poe.
John Lennon
My role in society, or any artist's or poet's role, is to try and express what we all feel. Not to tell people how to feel. Not as a preacher, not as a leader, but as a reflection of us all.
John Lennon
We all have Hitler in us, but we also have love and peace. So why not give peace a chance for once?
John Lennon
We're more popular than Jesus Christ now.
John Lennon
Love is a promise love is a souvenir.
John Lennon
What I'd have liked would have been the money and the hit records without the fame.
John Lennon
The continual awareness of what was going on made me feel ashamed I wasn't saying anything. I burst out because I could no longer play that game any more, it was just too much for me.
John Lennon
God is a concept by which we measure our pain. I'll say it again. God is a concept by which we measure our pain.
John Lennon
The Beatles had gone beyond comprehension. We were smoking marijuana for breakfast. We were well into marijuana and nobody could communicate with us, because we were just glazed eyes, giggling all the time.
John Lennon
Meanings of all songs come after they are recorded. Someone else has to interpret them
John Lennon
Happiness Is A Warm Gun not about heroin. A gun magazine was sitting there with a smoking gun on the cover and an article that I never read inside called 'Happiness Is a Warm Gun.' I took it right from there. I took it as the terrible idea of just having shot some animal.
John Lennon
The women are very important too, we can't have a revolution that doesn't involve and liberate women. It's so subtle the way you're taught male superiority.
John Lennon
Everything is true and not true about everything. That’s one thing I’ve learned.
John Lennon
