More quotes by John Lennon
I thought I was painting in sound a picture of revolution - but I made a mistake, you know. The mistake was that it was anti-revolution.
John Lennon
Why in the world are we here? Surely not to live in pain and fear. Why on earth are you there, when you're everywhere - come and get your share.
John Lennon
I'm not really a career person I'm a gardener, basically.
John Lennon

John Lennon
Life is what happens when you make other plans.
John Lennon
I thought the original Communist revolutionaries coordinated themselves a bit better and didn't go around shouting about it.
John Lennon
Imagine there's no varmints. It isn't hard to do.
John Lennon
Jesus was all right, but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It's them twisting it that ruins it for me.
John Lennon

John Lennon
Nobody's ever tried the peace thing, ... We are selling it like soap.
John Lennon
If you want peace, you won't get it with violence.
John Lennon
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.
John Lennon
I believe that time wounds all heals. (karma)
John Lennon
I didn't leave the Beatles. The Beatles have left the Beatles, but no one wants to be the one to say the party's over.
John Lennon
A dream you dream alone is only a dream.
John Lennon
Surrealism to me is reality. Psychedelic vision is reality to me and always was.
John Lennon
I've never voted. I've never voted yet although I could have voted for the last ten years.
John Lennon
I wasn't saying whatever they're saying I was saying. I'm sorry I said it really. I never meant it to be a lousy anti-religious thing. I apologize if that will make you happy. I still don't know quite what I've done. I've tried to tell you what I did do but if you want me to apologize, if that will make you happy, then OK, I'm sorry.
John Lennon
I'm cynical about society, politics, newspapers, government. But I'm not cynical about life, love, goodness, death. That's why I really don't want to be labeled a cynic.
John Lennon
We were always going to dump him when we found a decent drummer.
John Lennon
