Look, I wasn't saying the Beatles are better than God or Jesus. I said 'Beatles' because it's easy for me to talk about Beatles. I could have said TV or the cinema, motor cars or anything popular and I would have gotten away with it.

More quotes by John Lennon
You see, we're influenced by whatever's going. Even if we're not influenced, we're all going that way at a certain time. If we played a Stones record now - and a Beatles record - and we've been way apart, you'd find a lot of similarities. We're all heavy. Just heavy.
John Lennon
Before Elvis there was nothing.
John Lennon
As a child I did a lot of imaginary bits, you know. It depends on the individual, I enjoyed then knocking the nail in, I enjoy knocking nails in walls to hang pictures up, but I also enjoy thinking 'I'm gonna do that' but I actually won't do it, I enjoy imagining doing things just as much.
John Lennon
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.
John Lennon
Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting my friends
John Lennon
I've withdrawn many times.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
The dream is over. I gotta get down to reality. The good old days is garbage.
John Lennon
How can I go forward when I don't know which way I'm facing?
John Lennon
All we are saying is give peace a chance.
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
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
There's nothing you can do that can't be done, Nothing you can sing that can't be sung, Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game, It's easy... All you need is love.
John Lennon
I want to be with my best friend. My best friend, my wife. Who could ask for anything more?
John Lennon
Nothing happened in the sixties except that we all dressed up.
John Lennon
I really thought that love would save us all.
John Lennon
There is a time to let things happen, and a time to make things happen. Life is what happens when you are making other plans.
John Lennon
I think it's the best thing I've ever done. I think it's realistic, and it's true to the me that has been developing over the years. I like first-person music.
John Lennon
We're crazy about this city. Los Angeles? That's just a big parking lot where you buy a hamburger for the trip to San Francisco.
John Lennon
If The Beatles or the 60's had a message, it was 'Learn to swim. And once you've learned - swim!
John Lennon
Imagine all the people Sharing all the world.
John Lennon
