"Before Elvis, there was nothing."
"I'm not afraid of death because I don't believe in it. It's just getting out of one car and getting into another."
"Violence begets violence, you know. And you can't kill off all the violent people or all the murderers. We'd have to kill off the government."
"I'm just trying to make some noise."
"Imagine there's no heaven, it's easy if you try. No hell below us, above us only sky. Imagine all the people living for today."
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.
