"I'd join a band with John Lennon any day, but I couldn't join a band with Paul. That's not personal, but from a musical point of view."

"The only hope for us is peace. Violence begets violence. You can have peace as soon as you like if we all pull together. You're all geniuses, and you're all beautiful. You don't need anyone to tell yo…"
"The thing is, I'm a Scorpio. Scorpios are very passionate, intense, and very loyal. They're also very vindictive. I don't know if you know any Scorpios, but if you do, you'll know what I mean."
"I don't believe in gurus. I believe in myself."
About John Lennon (1940-1980)
English singer-songwriter, founding Beatle, and peace activist whose 'Imagine' (1971) became a 20th-century anti-war anthem; assassinated in NYC December 8, 1980. Closely associated with Paul McCartney (Beatles songwriting partner and lifelong foil) and George Harrison (fellow Beatle). For an intellectual contrast, see Richard Nixon, 37th US President — Nixon's 1972-73 administration tried to deport Lennon for his anti-Vietnam-War activism; declassified FBI files later confirmed the political motivation behind the immigration case. The canonical example of state retaliation against a celebrity activist.
