More quotes by John Lennon
Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end.
John Lennon
Love is the flower you've got to let grow.
John Lennon
I felt an obligation even then to write a song that people would sing in the pub or on a demonstration. That is why I would like to compose songs for the revolution.
John Lennon
Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting my friends
John Lennon
I believe in what I do, and I'll say it.
John Lennon
I want you to make love, not war, I know you've heard it before.
John Lennon
I don't mind looking to the camera - it's people that throw me.
John Lennon
That's part of our policy, is not to be taken seriously because I think our opposition, whoever they may be in all their manifest forms, don't know how to handle humour.
John Lennon
You can only breathe out if you breathe in.
John Lennon
I'm always proud and pleased when people do my songs. It gives me pleasure that they even attempt them, because a lot of my songs aren't that doable.
John Lennon
Creativity is a gift. It doesn't come through if the air is cluttered.
John Lennon
That radicalism (of the '70s) was phony, really, because it was out of guilt. I'd always felt guilty that I made money, so I had to give it away or lose it. I don't mean I was a hypocrite. When I believe, I believe right down to the roots.
John Lennon
Everything is as important as everything else.
John Lennon
There are no problems, only solutions.
John Lennon
Love is a promise love is a souvenir.
John Lennon
One has to completely humiliate oneself to be what the Beatles were . . . . It happened bit by bit, until . . . you're doing exactly what you don't want to do with people you can't stand -- the people you hated when you were ten.
John Lennon
I used to say to my auntie, 'You throw my fu*kin' poetry out, and you'll regret it when I'm famous,' and she threw the bast*rd stuff out. I never forgave her for not treating me like a fu*kin' genius or whatever I was when I was a child.
John Lennon
We must always remember to thank the CIA and the Army for LSD. That's what people forget.... They invented LSD to control people and what they did was give us freedom.
John Lennon
Once the new power has taken over they have to establish a new status quo just to keep the factories and trains running.
John Lennon
When somebody is angry with us, we draw a halo around his or her head, in our minds. Does the person stop being angry then? Well, we don't know! We know, though, that when we draw a halo around a person, suddenly the person starts to look like an angel to us.
John Lennon
