It was my Fat Elvis period. I was eating and drinking like a pig. I was depressed and I was crying out for help. It's real. And I meant it.

More quotes by John Lennon
Music is everybody's possession. It's only publishers who think that people own it.
John Lennon
Carrying The Beatles' or the Sixties' dream around all your life is like carrying the Second World War and Glenn Miller around. That's not to say you can't enjoy Glenn Miller or The Beatles, but to live in that dream is the twilight zone. It's not living now. It's an illusion.
John Lennon
Songwriting is about getting the demon out of me. It's like being possessed.
John Lennon
Look, I wasn't saying the Beatles are better than God or Jesus. I said 'Beatles' because it's easy for me to talk about Beatles. I could have said TV or the cinema, motor cars or anything popular and I would have gotten away with it.
John Lennon
You say you want a revolution? Well, you know. We all want to change the world.
John Lennon
I thought the original Communist revolutionaries coordinated themselves a bit better and didn't go around shouting about it.
John Lennon
I'll be a good boy, please make me well. I promise you anything, get me out of this hell. Cold turkey has got me on the run.
John Lennon
When you're in love, when somebody says something like, How can you be with that woman? you say, What do you mean? I am with this goddess of love, the fulfillment of my whole life. Why are you saying this? Why do you want to throw a rock at her or punish me for being in love with her?
John Lennon
You are not your emotions,you have emotions,and you can master them.
John Lennon
I am the eggman They are the eggmen! I am the walrus!
John Lennon
We were always going to dump him when we found a decent drummer.
John Lennon
Why don't people believe us when we say we're simply in love?
John Lennon
These critics with the illusions they've created about artists - it's like idol worship. They only like people when they're on their way up... I cannot be on the way up again.
John Lennon
I've got used to the fact - just about - that whatever I do is going to be compared to the other Beatles. If I took up ballet dancing, my ballet dancing would be compared with Paul (McCartney)'s bowling.
John Lennon
What we’ve got to do is keep hope alive. Because without it we’ll sink.
John Lennon
There is a time to let things happen, and a time to make things happen. Life is what happens when you are making other plans.
John Lennon
Avant-garde is French for bullshit
John Lennon
I can't play guitar, but I can sure make it howl.
John Lennon
Newspaper people have a habit of putting you in the front pages to sell their papers, and then after they've sold their papers and got big circulations, they say, 'Look at what we've done for you
John Lennon
I believe that time wounds all heals. (karma)
John Lennon
