More quotes by John Lennon

Image
But for me at any rate it was all part of dissolving the God trip or father-figure trip. Facing up to reality instead of always looking for some kind of heaven.
John Lennon
Image
Part of me suspects that I'm a loser, and the other part of me thinks I'm God Almighty.
John Lennon
Image
I don't believe in killing whatever the reason!
John Lennon
Image
Father, you left me, but I never left you.
John Lennon
Image
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
Image
Happiness is a good vibe for peace.
John Lennon
Image
Love is the Answer. What was the Question?
John Lennon
Image
The dream is over. I gotta get down to reality. The good old days is garbage.
John Lennon
Image
We were always going to dump him when we found a decent drummer.
John Lennon
Image
I was stuck in the feeling that one did not--was not justified in being alive unless one was fulfilling other people's dreams, whether they were contractual dreams or the public's dreams, or fulfilling my own dreams and illusions about what I thought I was supposed to be, which, in retrospect, turned out to not be what I am.
John Lennon

Get back to where you once belonged.
John Lennon
Image
Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we're being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That's what's insane about it.
John Lennon
Image
In one way, I was always hip. I was hip in kindergarten. I was different from the others. There was something wrong with me, I thought, because I seemed to see things people didn't see. I always saw things in a hallucinatory way.
John Lennon
Image
One thing I can tell you is you have to be free. Come together, right now, over me.
John Lennon
Image
We had one thing in common - we were in love. But love is just a gift, and it doesn't answer everything and it's like a precious plant that you have to nurture and look after and all that.
John Lennon
Image
How can I give love when I don't know what it is I'm giving?
John Lennon
Image
Imagine there's no heaven... it's easy if you try.
John Lennon
Image
One has to completely humiliate oneself to be what the Beatles were . . . . It happened bit by bit, until . . . you're doing exactly what you don't want to do with people you can't stand -- the people you hated when you were ten.
John Lennon
Image
It's better to fade away like an old soldier than to burn out. I don't appreciate worship of dead Sid Vicious or of dead James Dean or of dead John Wayne. It's the same thing. Making Sid Vicious a hero, Jim Morrison - it's garbage to me. I worship the people who survive. Gloria Swanson, Greta Garbo.

Love is the flower you've got to let grow.
