More quotes by John Lennon

Image
It's like being possessed: like a psychic or a medium. I felt like a hollow temple filled with many spirits, each one passing through me, each inhabiting me for a little time and then leaving to be replaced by another.
John Lennon
Image
There are only a few notes. Just variations on a theme.
John Lennon
Image
Am I crazy or am I a genius? I don't think I'm either.
John Lennon
Image
If I'd lived in Roman times, I'd have lived in Rome. Where else? Today America is the Roman Empire and New York is Rome itself.
John Lennon
Image
Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we're being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That's what's insane about it.
John Lennon
Image
I wouldn't say I was a born writer I'm a born thinker.
John Lennon
Image
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.

There are places I'll remember All my life though some have changed Some forever not for better Some have gone and some remain All these places have their moments With lovers and friends I still can recall Some are dead and some are living In my life I've loved them all

Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted.
John Lennon
Image
I had a lot of it in my day, but I don't like it. It's a dumb drug. Your whole concentration goes on getting the next fix. I find caffeine easier to deal with.
John Lennon
Image
Life is what happens when you make other plans.
John Lennon
Image
I want it to sound like an orange.
John Lennon
Image
One thing you can't hide - is when you're crippled inside.
John Lennon
Image
Sitting in an English Garden waiting for the sun If the sun don't come You get a tan from standing in the English rain.
John Lennon
Image
A more interesting question is not 'Why did they break up?' but 'Would they have gotten back together?' ... There's always a chance we'd work together again, but I can't see us touring. I just see us making records.
John Lennon
Image
Jesus was all right, but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It's them twisting it that ruins it for me.
John Lennon
Image
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
Image
If you want to get peace, you can get it as soon as you like if we all pull together. ... Think peace, live peace, and breathe peace and you'll get it as soon as you like.
John Lennon
Image
The idea of being a rock and roll musician sort of suited my talents and mentality. The freedom was great, but then I found out I wasn't free. I'd got boxed in...The whole Beatle thing is just beyond comprehension ... subconsciously I was crying for help.

I'm dissatisfied with every record the Beatles ever f***ing made. There ain't one of them I wouldn't remake.
