More quotes by John Lennon
I've always been politically minded, you know, and against the status quo.
John Lennon
We should be trying to reach the young workers because that's when you're most idealistic and have least fear.
John Lennon
Rituals are important. Nowadays it's hip not to be married. I'm not interested in being hip.
John Lennon
Creativity is a gift. It doesn't come through if the air is cluttered.
John Lennon

John Lennon
The first line (of I Am The Walrus) was written on one acid trip one weekend. The second line was written on the next acid trip the next weekend, and it was filled in after I met Yoko.
John Lennon
There is no denying that we are still living in the capitalist world. I think that in order to survive and to change the world, you have to take care of yourself first. You have to survive yourself.
John Lennon
I love commercial music! I can dissect it and criticize it with any critic in the business. But without any thought, I just enjoy it. It's folk music. That's what I'm doing, folk music. I'm not intellectualizing it . . . and making it into a phoney art form. I'm just doing the music I enjoy.
John Lennon
I've never voted. I've never voted yet although I could have voted for the last ten years.
John Lennon
I want you to make love, not war, I know you've heard it before.
John Lennon
I believe in what I do, and I'll say it.
John Lennon
Songwriting is about getting the demon out of me. It's like being possessed.
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
Music is everybody's possession.
John Lennon
paranoia is just a heightened sense of awareness
John Lennon
Love is like a flower - you have to let it grow.
John Lennon
Either I'm a genius or I'm mad, which is it? No, I said, I can't be mad because nobody's put me away therefore I'm a genius. Genius is a form of madness and we're all that way. But I used to be coy about it, like me guitar playing. But if there's such a thing as genius - I am one. And if there isn't, I don't care.
John Lennon
If I'd lived in Roman times, I'd have lived in Rome. Where else? Today America is the Roman Empire and New York is Rome itself.
John Lennon
You don't have to be some sort of freak to meditate
John Lennon
Once the new power has taken over they have to establish a new status quo just to keep the factories and trains running.
John Lennon
