More quotes by John Lennon
Everybody seems to think I'm lazy I don't mind, I think they're crazy. Running everywhere at such a speed Till they find there's no need.
John Lennon
A Conspiracy of silence speaks louder than words.
John Lennon
Well, I just want him to grow up happy. That's the main thing.
John Lennon
Am I crazy or am I a genius? I don't think I'm either.
John Lennon
There's room at the top they are telling you still, but first you must learn how to smile as you kill.
John Lennon
I'm not claiming divinity. I've never claimed purity of soul. I've never claimed to have the answers to life. I only put out songs and answer questions as honestly as I can. But I still believe in peace, love and understanding.
John Lennon
We're more popular than Jesus Christ now.
John Lennon

Peace in your mind, peace on earth, peace at work, peace at home, peace in the world.
John Lennon
Happiness Is A Warm Gun not about heroin. A gun magazine was sitting there with a smoking gun on the cover and an article that I never read inside called 'Happiness Is a Warm Gun.' I took it right from there. I took it as the terrible idea of just having shot some animal.
John Lennon
I was stuck in the feeling that one did not--was not justified in being alive unless one was fulfilling other people's dreams, whether they were contractual dreams or the public's dreams, or fulfilling my own dreams and illusions about what I thought I was supposed to be, which, in retrospect, turned out to not be what I am.
John Lennon
Rituals are important. Nowadays it's hip not to be married. I'm not interested in being hip.
John Lennon
It was a choice of making it or still eating chicken onstage.
John Lennon
Without a job all there is to life is boredom and insecurity.
John Lennon
How poetry comes to the poet is a mystery.
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
If somebody gives me a joint, I might smoke it, but I don't go after it.
John Lennon
Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can.
John Lennon
Love is real, real is love.
John Lennon
