Imagine there's no countries, it isn't hard to do, nothing to kill or die for, and no religion too. Imagine all the people living life in peace. You may say that I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. I hope someday you'll join us, and the world will be as one.

Love is like a flower-you've got to let it grow.

All you need is love.

If you want peace, you won't get it with violence.

Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can. No need for greed or hunger a brotherhood of man. Imagine all the people sharing all the world. You may say I'm a dreamer but I'm not the only one. I hope someday you'll join us and the world will live as one.

Imagine all the people living for today.

Imagine all the people living life in peace.

Imagine all the people sharing all the world.

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.

When it gets down to having to use violence, then you are playing the system’s game. The establishment will irritate you – pull your beard, flick your face – to make you fight. Because once they’ve got you violent, then they know how to handle you. The only thing they don’t know how to handle is non-violence and humor.
