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.

More quotes by John Lennon
Meanings of all songs come after they are recorded. Someone else has to interpret them
John Lennon
When you're thirty-five, you can't take as much booze ... and I always got a little violent on drink...So it was kind of self-destructive suicide side of me, which is resolving itself for the better, I believe, because I never enjoyed it.
John Lennon
When I started, rock and roll itself was the basic revolution to people of my age and situation. We needed something loud and clear to break through all the unfeeling and repression that had been coming down on us kids.
John Lennon
What I'd have liked would have been the money and the hit records without the fame.
John Lennon
Jesus was all right, but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It's them twisting it that ruins it for me.
John Lennon
I don't mind looking to the camera - it's people that throw me.
John Lennon
I've always been politically minded, you know, and against the status quo.
John Lennon
I'm really very embarrassed about my guitar playing, in one way, because it's very poor. I can never move but I can make a guitar speak.
John Lennon
Songwriting is like ... being possessed. You try to go to sleep but the song won't let you.
John Lennon
It was a choice of making it or still eating chicken onstage.
John Lennon
If I'd lived in Roman times, I'd have lived in Rome. Where else? Today America is the Roman Empire and New York is Rome itself.
John Lennon
Imagine all the people Sharing all the world.
John Lennon
Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted.
John Lennon
I'm not going to change the way I look or the way I feel to conform to anything.
John Lennon
I've never really been wanted.
John Lennon
Imagine there's no heaven... it's easy if you try.
John Lennon
The writing of the Beatles, or John and Paul's contribution to the Beatles in the late sixties - had a kind of depth to it, a more mature, more intellectual approach. We were different people, we were older. We knew each other in all kinds of different ways than when we wrote together as teenagers and in our older twenties.
John Lennon
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
We must always remember to thank the CIA and the Army for LSD. That's what people forget.... They invented LSD to control people and what they did was give us freedom.
John Lennon
It's weird not to be weird.
John Lennon
