John Lennon Quotes

It’s alright all of us all living saying ‘oh well there’s enough of us so we won’t have anymore, don’t let anybody else live.’ I don’t believe in that Picture Quote #1

The Beatles had gone beyond comprehension. We were smoking marijuana for breakfast. We were well into marijuana and nobody could communicate with us, because we were just glazed eyes, giggling all the time Picture Quote #1

I keep mementos from everything I’ve done. I’ve got my cab driver’s license from ‘Happiness.’ I’ve got a pair of glasses and a belt buckle from playing John Lennon. I’ve got a pair of sunglasses from playing Andy Warhol... It’s all in a box in the garage Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

When people get cynical about love, they should look at us [Yoko and John Lennon] and see it is possible Picture Quote #1

It’s fear of the unknown. The unknown is what it is. And to be frightened of it is what sends everybody scurrying around chasing dreams, illusions, wars, peace, love, hate, all that-it’s all illusion. Unknown is what it is. Accept that it’s unknown and it’s plain sailing. Everything is unknown-then you’re ahead of the game. That’s what it is. Right? Picture Quote #1

I don’t intend to be a performing flea any more. I was the dreamweaver, but although I’ll be around I don’t intend to be running at 20,000 miles an hour trying to prove myself. I don’t want to die at 40 Picture Quote #1

We all have Hitler in us, but we also have love and peace. So why not give peace a chance for once? Picture Quote #1

Nobody controls me. I’m uncontrollable. The only one who can control me is me, and even that’s barely possible Picture Quote #1

And So This Is Christmas; And What Have We Done? Another Year Over; A New One Just Begun; And So Happy Christmas; I Hope You Have Fun; The Near And The Dear Ones; The Old And The Young Picture Quote #1

As I play the game of life, I try to make it better each and every day. And when I struggle in the night, The magic of the music seems to light the way Picture Quote #1

As a kid I had a dream - I wanted to own my own bicycle. When I got the bike I must have been the happiest boy in Liverpool, maybe the world. I lived for that bike. Most kids left their bike in the backyard at night. Not me. I insisted on taking mine indoors and the first night I even kept it in my bed Picture Quote #1

DAYS THAT I’LL REMEMBER is a lovingly assembled and beautifully written collection of conversations, observations, and memories of music, friendship, and days gone by. It’s good to be back again with John Lennon, his beloved Yoko Ono, and his trusted chronicler and friend Jonathan Cott Picture Quote #1

Laurel and Hardy, that’s John and Yoko. And we stand a better chance under that guise because all the serious people like Martin Luther King and Kennedy and Gandhi got shot Picture Quote #1

People think the Beatles know what’s going on. We don’t. We’re just doing it Picture Quote #1

John Lennon was a musical genius. All I have to do is think of some of his songs and even the titles make me feel good... and I’m not the only one. His music has crossed cultures and even generations Picture Quote #1

But for me at any rate it was all part of dissolving the God trip or father-figure trip. Facing up to reality instead of always looking for some kind of heaven Picture Quote #1

Bob Dylan and John Lennon and Bruce Springsteen, these are soul guys. Bruce Springsteen might not sing like Otis Redding, but he sings with white soul. He’s singing and he’s writing songs from the bottom of his gut Picture Quote #1

The idea of beetles came into my head. I decided to spell it BEATles to make it look like beat music, just a joke Picture Quote #1

I learned lots of dirty jokes very young. There was this girl who told me them. The gang I led went in for shoplifting and pulling girls’ knickers down. Other boys’ parents hated me Picture Quote #1
