I believe that time wounds all heals. (karma)

There's room at the top they are telling you still, but first you must learn how to smile as you kill.
John Lennon

Music is everybody's possession. It's only publishers who think that people own it. If you were going to give Rock 'n' Roll another name you might as well call it Chuck Berry. We're more popular than Jesus now I don't know which will go first - Rock and Roll or Christianity.
John Lennon
Image
When I hold you in my arms and I feel my finger on your trigger I know no one can do me no harm because happiness is a warm gun.

John Lennon
Image
You're only awake when you realise you're awake and when you're dreaming, it is just as real, whatever happens is just as real - whether you actually do die in a dream or fulfil whatever you're doing in a dream, it's, there's nobody to tell me it isn't as real as this now, because how do you know?
John Lennon

I believe time wounds all heels.
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

As someone from the working class I was always interested in Russia and China and everything that related to the working class, even though I was playing the capitalist game.
John Lennon

Life is what happens when you make other plans.
John Lennon

If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there'd be peace.
John Lennon
Image
It matters not who you love, where you love, why you love, when you love or how you love, it matters only that you love

Control yourself. You'll spurt.
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.

Nobody loves you when you're down and out.
