I realized that kids everywhe...

I realized that kids everywhere go for the same stuff; and seeing as we'd done it in England, there's no reason why we couldn't do it in America too.

John Lennon 681 quotes

I was stuck in the feeling th...

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 681 quotes

No longer riding on the merry-go-round, I just had to let it go.

John Lennon 681 quotes

In England, there are only tw...

In England, there are only two things to be, basically: You are either for the labor movement or for the capitalist movement. Either you become a right-wing Archie Bunker if you are in the class I am in, or you become an instinctive socialist, which I was.

I'll be a good boy, please make me well. I promise you anything, get me out of this hell. Cold turkey has got me on the run.

John Lennon 681 quotes

It's better to fade away like...

It's better to fade away like an old soldier than to burn out. I don't appreciate worship of dead Sid Vicious or of dead James Dean or of dead John Wayne. It's the same thing. Making Sid Vicious a hero, Jim Morrison - it's garbage to me. I worship the people who survive. Gloria Swanson, Greta Garbo.

After The Beatles came on the scene everyone started putting on a Liverpudlian accent.

I'm a moldy moldy man I'm moldy thru and thru I'm a moldy moldy man You would not think it true I'm moldy til my eyeballs I'm moldy til my toe I will not dance I shyballs I'm such a humble Joe.

We want to go forward, but which way are we facing?

Music touching my soul, the spirit dance was unfolding.

John Lennon 681 quotes

You'd have to give people free rein to attack the local councils or to destroy the school authorities, like the students who break up the repression in the universities. It's already happening, though people have got to get together more.

John Lennon 681 quotes

It's pretty hard when you are...

It's pretty hard when you are Caesar and everyone is saying how wonderful you are and they are giving you all the goodies and the girls, it's pretty hard to break out of that, to say 'Well, I don't want to be king, I want to be real.'

John Lennon 681 quotes

I'd like to incite people to ...

I'd like to incite people to break the framework, to be disobedient in school, to stick their tongues out, to keep insulting authority.

John Lennon 681 quotes

I've always been politically ...

I've always been politically minded and against the status quo. It's pretty basic when you're brought up, like I was, to hate and fear the police as a natural enemy and to despise the army as something that takes everybody away and leaves them dead somewhere.

John Lennon 681 quotes

Today's folk song is rock and...

Today's folk song is rock and roll. Although it happened to emanate from America, that's not really important in the end because we wrote our own music and that changed everything.

John Lennon 681 quotes

Like Paul Kraston said, all I...

Like Paul Kraston said, all I ask in life is a water bed, a TV and a typewriter. Well, I'll just have an ordinary bed, a TV and a guitar.

John Lennon 681 quotes

We should be trying to reach the young workers because that's when you're most idealistic and have least fear.

John Lennon 681 quotes

That's the choice they allow ...

That's the choice they allow you - now the outlet is being a pop star, which is really what I'm saying on the album in 'Working class hero'. As I told Rolling Stone, it's the same people who have the power, the class system didn't change one little bit.

John Lennon 681 quotes

Some people say it's a when you get older fans the kids don't like you. It's true.

John Lennon 681 quotes

In Western-style Communism we would have to create an almost imaginary workers' image of themselves as the father-figure.
