More quotes by 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
Well, I just want him to grow up happy. That's the main thing.
John Lennon
Why don't people believe us when we say we're simply in love?
John Lennon
One thing I can tell you is you have to be free. Come together, right now, over me.
John Lennon
I can't play guitar, but I can sure make it howl.
John Lennon
You are not your emotions,you have emotions,and you can master them.
John Lennon
You know the way people begin to look like their dogs? Well, we're beginning to look like each other.
John Lennon
Love is a promise love is a souvenir.
John Lennon
The whole thing died in my mind long before the rumpus started. We used to believe the Beatles myth just as much as the public and we were in love with them just the same way. But we were four individuals who eventually recovered our individualities after being submerged in a myth.
John Lennon
Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can.
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
The writing of the Beatles, or John and Paul's contribution to the Beatles in the late sixties - had a kind of depth to it, a more mature, more intellectual approach. We were different people, we were older. We knew each other in all kinds of different ways than when we wrote together as teenagers and in our older twenties.
John Lennon
We're more popular than Jesus Christ now.
John Lennon
Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted.
John Lennon
Music is everybody's possession. It's only publishers who think that people own it.
John Lennon
We want to go forward, but which way are we facing?
John Lennon
You may say i'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one
John Lennon
I think middle-class people have the biggest trauma if they have nice imagey parents, all smiling and dolled up.
John Lennon
Getting out of one car and getting into another
John Lennon
Don't believe that jazz about there's nothing you can do, turn on and drop out, man - because you've got to turn on and drop in, or they're going to drop all over you.
John Lennon
