Quote

I think it's the best thing I've ever done. I think it's realistic, and it's true to the me that has been developing over the years. I like first-person music.

I began to realise that we are all oppressed which is why I would like to do something about it, though I'm not sure where my place is.
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
We want to go forward, but which way are we facing?

Elvis died the day he went into the army.

When I get older losing my hair many years from now. Will you still be sending me a Valentine. Birthday greetings, bottle of wine? If I'd been out till quarter to three would you lock the door? Will you still need me, will you still feed me, When I'm sixty-four?

John Lennon
Image
Either I'm a genius or I'm mad, which is it? No, I said, I can't be mad because nobody's put me away therefore I'm a genius. Genius is a form of madness and we're all that way. But I used to be coy about it, like me guitar playing. But if there's such a thing as genius - I am one. And if there isn't, I don't care.

We all have Hitler in us, but we also have love and peace. So why not give peace a chance for once?
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
Image
There's nothing you can do that can't be done, Nothing you can sing that can't be sung, Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game, It's easy... All you need is love.
John Lennon
Image
There was never any question about it: we [with Yoko Ono] had to have a 50-50 relationship or there was no relationship, I was quick to learn.
John Lennon
Image
You're just left with yourself all the time, whatever you do anyway. You've got to get down to your own God in your own temple. It's all down to you, mate.
John Lennon

A Conspiracy of silence speaks louder than words.
