John Lennon

John Lennon

John Lennon
My role in society, or any artist's or poet's role, is to try and express what we all feel. Not to tell people how to feel. Not as a preacher, not as a leader, but as a reflection of us all.
John Lennon
I think middle-class people have the biggest trauma if they have nice imagey parents, all smiling and dolled up.
John Lennon
Imagine all the people living life in peace.
John Lennon
Everything is true and not true about everything. That’s one thing I’ve learned.
John Lennon
What I'd have liked would have been the money and the hit records without the fame.
John Lennon
There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance.
John Lennon
Today's folk song is rock and roll. Although it happened to emanate from America, that's not really important in the end because we wrote our own music and that changed everything.
John Lennon
Violence begets violence, you know. And you can't kill off all the violent people or all the murderers. We'd have to kill off the government.
John Lennon
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
