Quote

I never went to high school reunions. My thing is, out of sight, out of mind. That's my attitude toward life. So I don't have any romanticism about any part of my past.

John Lennon

I'm really very embarrassed about my guitar playing, in one way, because it's very poor. I can never move but I can make a guitar speak.
John Lennon
Image
I believe in everything until it's disproved.
John Lennon
Image
Nothing really affected me until Elvis.
John Lennon
Image
It was my Fat Elvis period. I was eating and drinking like a pig. I was depressed and I was crying out for help. It's real. And I meant it.
John Lennon
Image
If I had the capabilities of being something other than I am, I would. It's no fun being an artist. You know what it's like, writing, it's torture.
John Lennon
Image
We gave up everything just to sit at your table.
John Lennon

In my case I've never not been political, though religion tended to overshadow it in my acid days.

Whenever in doubt, turn off your mind, relax, and float downstream.
John Lennon

Yoko [Ono] was well into liberation before I met her. She'd had to fight her way through a man's world - the art world is completely dominated by men - so she was full of revolutionary zeal when we met.
John Lennon

I can't play guitar, but I can sure make it howl.
John Lennon
Image
I've withdrawn many times.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
Image
Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted.
John Lennon
Image
Happiness is just how you feel when you don't feel miserable.
John Lennon
Image
Don't let them fool you with dope and cocaine, can't do you know harm to feel your own pain.
John Lennon
Image
Love is the flower you've got to let grow.
John Lennon
Image
People like me are aware of their so-called genius at ten, eight, nine.
John Lennon
Image
Work is life, you know, and without it, there's nothing but fear and insecurity.
John Lennon
Image
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.

The lyrics stand today (1980). They're still my feeling about politics. I want to see the plan. I want to know what you're going to do after you've knocked it all down. I mean, can't we use some of it? What's the point of bombing Wall Street? If you want to change the system, change the system. It's no good shooting people.
