Chris' Quote of the Day: The John Lennon Edition


"A dream you dream alone is only a dream. A dream you dream together is reality."

"All we are saying is give peace a chance."

"All you need is love."

"As usual, there is a great woman behind every idiot."

"Everybody loves you when you're six foot in the ground."

"Everything is clearer when you're in love."

"God is a concept by which we measure our pain."

"I don't know which will go first, rock 'n' roll or Christianity."

"I'm not going to change the way I look or the way I feel to conform to anything. I've always been a freak. So I've been a freak all my life and I have to live with that, you know. I'm one of those people."

"If being an egomaniac means I believe in what I do and in my art or music, then in that respect you can call me that... I believe in what I do, and I'll say it."

"Imagine all the people living life in peace. You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. I hope someday you'll join us, and the world will be as one."

"It doesn't matter how long my hair is or what colour my skin is or whether I'm a woman or a man."

"Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans."

"Love is the flower you've got to let grow."

"Music is everybody's possession. It's only publishers who think that people own it."

"My role in society, or any artist's or poet's role, is to try and express what we all feel. Not to tell people how to feel. Not as a preacher, not as a leader, but as a reflection of us all."

"Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we're being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That's what's insane about it."

"Possession isn't nine-tenths of the law. It's nine-tenths of the problem."

"Reality leaves a lot to the imagination."

"Surrealism had a great effect on me because then I realised that the imagery in my mind wasn't insanity. Surrealism to me is reality."

"Yeah we all shine on, like the moon, and the stars, and the sun."
