I loved the quotes thread for George, so we've got to have a John Lennon one too!  Some of my favorite are: Q: "What about the gifts? I notice more and more you've been getting more and more gifts from fans. What was the most unusual gift you've ever received? I know there's so many-- Is there one that sticks out in your mind?" JOHN: "I once received a bra..." Q: "You did?" JOHN: "...with 'I Love John' embroidered on it. I thought it was pretty original. I didn't keep it, mind you-- It didn't fit." Another one: Reporter: "Does all the adulation from teenage girls affect you?" John: "When I feel my head start to swell, I look at Ringo and know perfectly well we're not supermen." |

"I believe in everything until it's disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind. Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now?"
"If you tried to give rock and roll another name, you might call it 'Chuck Berry'."
"Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted."

"If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there'd be peace."
"I'm not afraid of death beacause I don't believe in it. It's just getting out of one car and into another."

"It's the 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?"
^Some twisted brilliance in that one.
"You don't need anybody to tell you who you are or what you are. You are what you are!"
"I've been baking bread and looking after the baby...everyone else who has asked me that question over the last few years says, 'But what else have you been doing?' To which I say, 'Are you kidding?' Because bread and babies, as every housewife knows, is a full-time job. After I made the loaves of bread, I felt like I had conquered something. But as I watched the bread being eaten, I thought, Well, Jesus, don't I get a gold record or knighted or nothing?"
^Bahahaha, I love it.
"I'm not going to change the way I look or the way I feel to conform 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."
^MY FAVORITE. I live my life by that; it's just SO me.

" My defenses were so great. The cocky rock and roll hero who knows all the answers was actually a terrified guy who didn't know how to cry. Simple. " - John Lennon
