More quotes by John Lennon
If being an egomaniac means I believe in what I do and in my art or music, then in that respect you can call me that... I believe in what I do, and I'll say it.
John Lennon
Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted.
John Lennon
I thought of nothing else but rock 'n' roll apart from sex and food and money--but that's all the same thing, really.
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 go to restaurants and the groups always play Yesterday. I even signed a guy's violin in Spain after he played us Yesterday. He couldn't understand that I didn't write the song. But I guess he couldn't have gone from table to table playing I Am The Walrus.
John Lennon
How can I give love when I don't know what it is I'm giving?
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
The first drugs I ever took, I was still at art school, with the group - we all took it together - was Benzedrine from the inside of an inhaler.
John Lennon
I realized that kids everywhere go for the same stuff and seeing as we'd done it in England, there's no reason why we couldn't do it in America too.
John Lennon
I don't believe in killing whatever the reason!
John Lennon
There are only a few notes. Just variations on a theme.
John Lennon
Love is the Answer. What was the Question?
John Lennon
As a child I did a lot of imaginary bits, you know. It depends on the individual, I enjoyed then knocking the nail in, I enjoy knocking nails in walls to hang pictures up, but I also enjoy thinking 'I'm gonna do that' but I actually won't do it, I enjoy imagining doing things just as much.
John Lennon
Music is everybody's possession.
John Lennon
Everything is true and not true about everything. That’s one thing I’ve learned.
John Lennon
The world went mad and used us as an excuse.
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
Why don't people believe us when we say we're simply in love?
John Lennon
I'm an Elvis fan because it was Elvis who really got me out of Liverpool.
John Lennon
Nothing you can know that isn't known Nothing you can see that isn't shown Nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be It's easy
John Lennon
