"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."
"The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it."
"It's all a big joke, isn't it?"
"Ritual is important. The wedding ceremony is a ritual that is very important. It's a statement."
"I'm not going to change the world. I'm just going to change me."
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.
