John LennonIt's pretty hard when you are Caesar and everyone is saying how wonderful you are and they are giving you all the goodies and the girls, it's pretty hard to break out of that, to say 'Well, I don't want to be king, I want to be real.'
John LennonPeople always got the image I was an anti-Christ or antireligion. I'm not. I'm a most religious fellow.
