I'm always proud and pleased when people do my songs. It gives me pleasure that they even attempt them, because a lot of my songs aren't that doable.

More quotes by John Lennon
Nobody's ever tried the peace thing, ... We are selling it like soap.
John Lennon
Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted.
John Lennon
How can I give love when I don't know what it is I'm giving?
John Lennon
When you're thirty-five, you can't take as much booze ... and I always got a little violent on drink...So it was kind of self-destructive suicide side of me, which is resolving itself for the better, I believe, because I never enjoyed it.
John Lennon
If there's anything that you want, If there's anything I can do, Just call on me, And I'll send it along with love from me to you.
John Lennon
I didn't come after Elvis and Dylan, I've been around always. But if I see or meet a great artist, I love 'em.
John Lennon
When you're in love, when somebody says something like, How can you be with that woman? you say, What do you mean? I am with this goddess of love, the fulfillment of my whole life. Why are you saying this? Why do you want to throw a rock at her or punish me for being in love with her?
John Lennon
Music is everybody's possession. It's only publishers who think that people own it.
John Lennon
We should be trying to reach the young workers because that's when you're most idealistic and have least fear.
John Lennon
I used to say to my auntie, 'You throw my fu*kin' poetry out, and you'll regret it when I'm famous,' and she threw the bast*rd stuff out. I never forgave her for not treating me like a fu*kin' genius or whatever I was when I was a child.
John Lennon
These critics with the illusions they've created about artists - it's like idol worship. They only like people when they're on their way up... I cannot be on the way up again.
John Lennon
A Conspiracy of silence speaks louder than words.
John Lennon
Imagine there's no heaven... it's easy if you try.
John Lennon
People like me are aware of their so-called genius at ten, eight, nine.
John Lennon
Meanings of all songs come after they are recorded. Someone else has to interpret them
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
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
The first line (of I Am The Walrus) was written on one acid trip one weekend. The second line was written on the next acid trip the next weekend, and it was filled in after I met Yoko.
John Lennon
Am I crazy or am I a genius? I don't think I'm either.
John Lennon
Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting my friends
John Lennon
