More quotes by John Lennon

John Lennon
Everything is true and not true about everything. That’s one thing I’ve learned.
John Lennon
I wouldn't say I was a born writer I'm a born thinker.
John Lennon

John Lennon
How can I go forward when I don't know which way I'm facing?
John Lennon
One thing I can tell you is you have to be free. Come together, right now, over me.
John Lennon
It was very romantic. It's all in the song, The Ballad of John and Yoko. If you want to know how it happened, it's in there. Gibraltar was like a little sunny dream. I couldn't find a white suit - I had sort of off-white corduroy trousers and a white jacket. Yoko had all white on.
John Lennon
A Conspiracy of silence speaks louder than words.
John Lennon
Songwriting is about getting the demon out of me. It's like being possessed.
John Lennon
If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there'd be peace.
John Lennon
I'm an Elvis fan because it was Elvis who really got me out of Liverpool.
John Lennon
We live in a world where we have to hide to make love, while violence is practiced in broad daylight.
John Lennon
We were all on this ship in the sixties, our generation, a ship going to discover the New World. And the Beatles were in the crow's nest of that ship.
John Lennon
I don't mind looking to the camera - it's people that throw me.
John Lennon
Man, you should have seen them kicking Edgar Allan Poe.
John Lennon
