More quotes by John Lennon
God is a concept by which we measure our pain. I'll say it again. God is a concept by which we measure our pain.
John Lennon
Nothing affected me until I heard Elvis. Without Elvis there would be no Beatles.
John Lennon
You are not your emotions,you have emotions,and you can master them.
John Lennon
Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can.
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
As I play the game of life, I try to make it better each and every day. And when I struggle in the night, The magic of the music seems to light the way.
John Lennon
We went to America a few times and [Brian] Epstein always tried to waffle on at us about saying nothing about Vietnam. So there came a time when George [Harrison] and I said 'Listen, when they ask next time, we're going to say we don't like that war and we think they should get right out.' That's what we did.
John Lennon
That's what the great masters and mistresses have been saying ever since time began. They can point the way, leave signposts and little instructions in various books that are now called holy and worshipped for the cover of the book and not for what it says, but the instructions are all there for all to see, have always been and always will be.
John Lennon
And so this is Xmas for black and for white, for yellow and red, let's stop all the fight.
John Lennon
How poetry comes to the poet is a mystery.
John Lennon
As a kid I had a dream - I wanted to own my own bicycle. When I got the bike I must have been the happiest boy in Liverpool, maybe the world. I lived for that bike. Most kids left their bike in the backyard at night. Not me. I insisted on taking mine indoors and the first night I even kept it in my bed.
John Lennon
Imagine all the people living life in peace.
John Lennon
It's weird not to be weird.
John Lennon
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
People like me are aware of their so-called genius at ten, eight, nine.
John Lennon
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.
John Lennon
I think middle-class people have the biggest trauma if they have nice imagey parents, all smiling and dolled up.
John Lennon
If somebody gives me a joint, I might smoke it, but I don't go after it.
John Lennon
Life is what's going on while your making other plans.
John Lennon
Everybody's talking about ministers, sinisters, banisters, and canisters, bishops, fishops, rabbis, and popeyes, bye-bye, bye-byes.
John Lennon
