100 Powerful Quotes By John Lennon To Feed Your Soul
If there has ever been a band that changed the music scenario and history of popular music like none other in the centuries gone by, it has to be ‘The Beatles’. And ‘Beatles’ wouldn’t have been so had it not been for the famed singer-songwriter, John Lennon. A sheer musical genius, Lennon co-founded Beatles along with Paul McCartney thus starting a musical legacy that crossed continents and transpired success making the pop music what it is today.

In the years to follow, George Harrison and Ringo Starr joined in and gave Beatles its heart and soul. For more than a decade, Beatles dominated the pop culture and rock and roll so much so that the era is best remembered as ‘Beatlemania’. And much of the success of the Beatles came in due to the exceptional lyrics delivered by Lennon and McCartney. More than often, Lennon infused in his songs his political and peace activism. The same is also visible in his solo ventures that were crusades of his social campaigns. And not far behind are his quotes that portray his ideology and philosophy.
