More quotes by John Lennon

Image
To begin with, working class people reacted against our openness about sex. They are frightened of nudity, they're repressed in that way as well as others. Perhaps they thought 'Paul [McCartney] is a good lad, he doesn't make trouble'.
John Lennon

There are only a few notes. Just variations on a theme.
John Lennon
Image
When you're drowning, you don't say 'I would be incredibly pleased if someone would have the foresight to notice me drowning and come and help me,' you just scream.
John Lennon
Image
I want to be with my best friend. My best friend, my wife. Who could ask for anything more?

Happiness is a warm gun.

It depends who they are. If it's Mick (Jagger) or the Old Guard as I call them, yeah, they're the Old Guard. Elton (John), David (Bowie) are the newies. I don't feel like an old uncle, dear, 'cause I'm not that much older than half of 'em, hehe.

Love is like a flower - you have to let it grow.
John Lennon
Image
As in a love affair, two creative people can destroy themselves trying to recapture that youthful spirit, at twenty-one or twenty-four, of creating without even being aware of how it's happening

We'd also have to infiltrate the army too, because they are well trained to kill us all.
John Lennon
Image
You are not your emotions,you have emotions,and you can master them.
John Lennon

Nobody's ever tried the peace thing, ... We are selling it like soap.
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
It doesn't matter how long my hair is or what colour my skin is or whether I'm a woman or a man.
John Lennon
Image
What we’ve got to do is keep hope alive. Because without it we’ll sink.
John Lennon

How poetry comes to the poet is a mystery.
John Lennon
Image
Happiness Is A Warm Gun not about heroin. A gun magazine was sitting there with a smoking gun on the cover and an article that I never read inside called 'Happiness Is a Warm Gun.' I took it right from there. I took it as the terrible idea of just having shot some animal.

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

If art were to redeem man, it could do so only by saving him from the seriousness of life and restoring him to an unexpected boyishness.
John Lennon
Image
You see, we're influenced by whatever's going. Even if we're not influenced, we're all going that way at a certain time. If we played a Stones record now - and a Beatles record - and we've been way apart, you'd find a lot of similarities. We're all heavy. Just heavy.

Creativity is a gift. It doesn't come through if the air is cluttered.
