Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see. It's getting hard to be someone but it all works out. It doesn't matter much to me.

I'm an Elvis fan because it was Elvis who really got me out of Liverpool.
John Lennon

I don't know if I want to record together again. I go off and on it... In the old days, when we needed an album, Paul and I got together and produced enough songs for it. Nowadays, there's three of us writing prolifically and trying to fit it all into one album.

Pools of sorrow. Waves of joy.
John Lennon

Why in the world are we here? Surely not to live in pain and fear. Why on earth are you there, when you're everywhere - come and get your share.
John Lennon

John Lennon

We went to America a few times and [Brian] Epstein always tried to waffle on at us about saying nothing about Vietnam. So there came a time when George [Harrison] and I said 'Listen, when they ask next time, we're going to say we don't like that war and we think they should get right out.' That's what we did.
John Lennon
Image
I'm not claiming divinity. I've never claimed purity of soul. I've never claimed to have the answers to life. I only put out songs and answer questions as honestly as I can. But I still believe in peace, love and understanding.
John Lennon
Image
All you need is love. I believe it. It's damn hard, but I absolutely believe it.
John Lennon
Image
We should be trying to reach the young workers because that's when you're most idealistic and have least fear.
John Lennon

We'd also have to infiltrate the army too, because they are well trained to kill us all.
John Lennon
Image
He didn't come out of my belly, but my God, I've made his bones, because I've attended to every meal, and how he sleeps, and the fact that he swims like a fish because I took him to the ocean. I'm so proud of all those things. But he is my biggest pride.
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
Declare it. Just the same way we declare war. That is how we will have peace... we just need to declare it.
John Lennon
Image
The women are very important too, we can't have a revolution that doesn't involve and liberate women. It's so subtle the way you're taught male superiority.
John Lennon
Image
I remember a time when everybody I loved hated me because I hated them.
John Lennon
