More quotes by John Lennon
You don't have to be some sort of freak to meditate
John Lennon
There's nothing new under the sun. All the roads lead to Rome. And people cannot provide it for you. I can't wake you up. You can wake you up. I can't cure you. You can cure you.
John Lennon
Now The Beatles are four separate people, we don't have the impact we had when we were together.
John Lennon
In one way, I was always hip. I was hip in kindergarten. I was different from the others. There was something wrong with me, I thought, because I seemed to see things people didn't see. I always saw things in a hallucinatory way.
John Lennon
Without Jimmy (James) Dean the Beatles would never have existed.
John Lennon
One has to completely humiliate oneself to be what the Beatles were . . . . It happened bit by bit, until . . . you're doing exactly what you don't want to do with people you can't stand -- the people you hated when you were ten.
John Lennon
We live in a world where we have to hide to make love, while violence is practiced in broad daylight.
John Lennon
Try to see it my way, only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong. While you see it your way, there's a chance that we might fall apart before too long. We can work it out. W e can work it out.
John Lennon
How can I go forward when I don't know which way I'm facing?
John Lennon
What we’ve got to do is keep hope alive. Because without it we’ll sink.
John Lennon
There's nothing you can do that can't be done.
John Lennon
Trying to please everybody is impossible - if you did that, you'd end up in the middle with nobody liking you. You've just got to make the decision about what you think is your best, and do it.
John Lennon
If someone thinks that love and peace is a cliche that must have been left behind in the Sixties, that's his problem. Love and peace are eternal.
John Lennon
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.
John Lennon
I started being me about the songs, not writing objectively, but subjectively. I think it was Dylan who helped me realize that - not by any discussion or anything, but by hearing his work.
John Lennon
Nothing affected me until I heard Elvis. Without Elvis there would be no Beatles.
John Lennon
If somebody gives me a joint, I might smoke it, but I don't go after it.
John Lennon
The lyrics stand today (1980). They're still my feeling about politics. I want to see the plan. I want to know what you're going to do after you've knocked it all down. I mean, can't we use some of it? What's the point of bombing Wall Street? If you want to change the system, change the system. It's no good shooting people.
John Lennon
I never listen to the radio. If it's bad, I make fun of it, and if it's good, I get jealous that I didn't think of it.
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
