More quotes by John Lennon

Image
If you want peace, you won't get it with violence.
John Lennon
Image
These critics with the illusions they've created about artists - it's like idol worship. They only like people when they're on their way up... I cannot be on the way up again.
John Lennon
Image
Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted.
John Lennon
Image
All the revolutions have happened when a Fidel or Marx or Lenin or whatever, who were intellectuals, were able to get through to the workers. They got a good pocket of people together and the workers seemed to understand that they were in a repressed state.
John Lennon
Image
Jesus was all right, but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It's them twisting it that ruins it for me.
John Lennon
Image
I'm not going to change the way I look or the way I feel to conform to anything.
John Lennon
Image
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
As a kid I had a dream - I wanted to own my own bicycle. When I got the bike I must have been the happiest boy in Liverpool, maybe the world. I lived for that bike. Most kids left their bike in the backyard at night. Not me. I insisted on taking mine indoors and the first night I even kept it in my bed.

Everything is as important as everything else.
John Lennon
Image
Work is life, you know, and without it, there's nothing but fear and insecurity.
John Lennon
Image
The Beatles were just a band that made it very, very big, that's all.
John Lennon
Image
And so this is Xmas for black and for white, for yellow and red, let's stop all the fight.
John Lennon
Image
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.
John Lennon
Image
Lack of feeling in an emotional sense is responsible for the way some singers do our songs. They don't understand and are too old to grasp the feeling. Beatles are really the only people who can play Beatle music.
John Lennon
Image
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
Image
Everything is true and not true about everything. That’s one thing I’ve learned.
John Lennon
Image
I don't mind looking to the camera - it's people that throw me.
John Lennon
Image
In Western-style Communism we would have to create an almost imaginary workers' image of themselves as the father-figure.
John Lennon
Image
Without a job all there is to life is boredom and insecurity.
John Lennon
Image
We'd also have to infiltrate the army too, because they are well trained to kill us all.
