So long ago, was it in a dream, was it just a dream?
John Lennon

Before many black singers were still labouring under that problem of God it was often 'God will save us'. But right through the blacks were singing directly and immediately about their pain and also about sex, which is why I like it.
John Lennon

My life with the Beatles had become a trap... I always remember to thank Jesus for the end of my touring days if I hadn't said that the Beatles were 'bigger than Jesus' and upset the very Christian Ku Klux Klan, well, Lord, I might still be up there with all the other performing fleas! God bless America. Thank you, Jesus.

That's the choice they allow you - now the outlet is being a pop star, which is really what I'm saying on the album in 'Working class hero'. As I told Rolling Stone, it's the same people who have the power, the class system didn't change one little bit.

There are only a few notes. Just variations on a theme.
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.

Everything is as important as everything else.

If there hadn't been an Elvis, there wouldn't have been the Beatles.

Produce your own dream. If you want to save Peru, go save Peru. It’s quite possible to do anything, but not if you put it on the leaders and the parking meters. Don’t expect Carter or Reagan or John Lennon or Yoko Ono or Bob Dylan or Jesus Christ to come and do it for you. You have to do it yourself.
John Lennon

Nothing really affected me until Elvis.
John Lennon
Image
I've never voted. I've never voted yet although I could have voted for the last ten years.
John Lennon

Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end.
John Lennon
Image
We were really professional by the time we got to the States we had learned the whole game. When we arrived here we knew how to handle the press the British press were the toughest in the world and we could handle anything. We were all right.
John Lennon
Image
I really thought that love would save us all.
John Lennon

Nobody loves you when you're down and out.

[LSD] went on for years. I must have had a thousand trips. I used to just eat it all the time.
John Lennon

The pressures of being a parent are equal to any pressure on earth. To be a conscious parent, and really look to that little being's mental and physical health, is a responsibility which most of us, including me, avoid most of the time because it's too hard.
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.

Sitting in an English Garden waiting for the sun If the sun don't come You get a tan from standing in the English rain.
