The second political thing I did was to say 'The Beatles are bigger than Jesus.' That really broke the scene, I nearly got shot in America for that. It was a big trauma for all the kids that were following us.
John Lennon

Life's what happens when you're making other plans.
John Lennon

I'll give you everything I've got for a little peace of mind
John Lennon

We'd also have to infiltrate the army too, because they are well trained to kill us all.
John Lennon
Image
You know the way people begin to look like their dogs? Well, we're beginning to look like each other.

Surrealism to me is reality. Psychedelic vision is reality to me and always was.
John Lennon
Image
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
Image
Imagine no possesions, I wonder if you can, No need for greed or hunger, A brotherhood of man. Imagine all the people Sharing all the world.
John Lennon

I am going into an unknown future, but I'm still all here, and still while there's life, there's hope.
John Lennon
Image
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.

A working class hero is something to be.
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
The continual awareness of what was going on made me feel ashamed I wasn't saying anything. I burst out because I could no longer play that game any more, it was just too much for me.
John Lennon
Image
You don't have to be some sort of freak to meditate
John Lennon
Image
I remember a time when everybody I loved hated me because I hated them.
John Lennon
Image
People think the Beatles know what's going on. We don't. We're just doing it.
John Lennon
Image
I don't mind looking to the camera - it's people that throw me.
John Lennon
Image
Sarcasim is the lowest form of humor.
John Lennon
Image
I'll be a good boy, please make me well. I promise you anything, get me out of this hell. Cold turkey has got me on the run.
John Lennon
Image
Surrealism had a great effect on me because then I realised that the imagery in my mind wasn't insanity. Surrealism to me is reality.
