More quotes by John Lennon
Avant-garde is French for bullshit
John Lennon
Imagine all the people Sharing all the world.
John Lennon
I've withdrawn many times. Part of me is a monk, and part a performing flea! The fear in the music business is that you don't exist if you're not at Xenon with Andy Warhol.
John Lennon
I dream in colour, and its always very surreal. My dream world is complete Hieronymus Bosch and Dali. I love it, I look forward to it every night
John Lennon
Getting out of one car and getting into another
John Lennon
It's better to fade away like an old soldier than to burn out. I don't appreciate worship of dead Sid Vicious or of dead James Dean or of dead John Wayne. It's the same thing. Making Sid Vicious a hero, Jim Morrison - it's garbage to me. I worship the people who survive. Gloria Swanson, Greta Garbo.
John Lennon
Nothing really affected me until Elvis.
John Lennon
You're born in pain and pain is what we're in most of the time. And I think that the bigger the pain, the more gods we need.
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
If you want peace, you won't get it with violence.
John Lennon
People asking questions, lost in confusion, well I tell them there's no problem, only solutions.
John Lennon
I just said what I said and it was wrong. Or it was taken wrong. And now it's all this.
John Lennon
if everyone could just be happy with themselves and the choices people around them make, the world would instantly be a better place!
John Lennon
I believe time wounds all heels.
John Lennon
And Paul hits this chord, and I turn to him and say, 'That's it! Do that again!' In those days we really used to absolutely write like that - both playing into each other's noses.
John Lennon
When I was a child I experienced moments of not wanting to see the ugliness, not wanting to see not being wanted. This lack of love went into my eyes and into my mind.
John Lennon
Why don't people believe us when we say we're simply in love?
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
I've never voted. I've never voted yet although I could have voted for the last ten years.
John Lennon
Life is what happens when we are busy doing other things. Peace is not something you wish for it's something you make, something you do, something you are and something you give away.
John Lennon
